I am doing 75 Hard

Happy Thursday and day 5 of me doing the 75 Hard! Yikes, lol. I love doing things that stretch me, I have come to realize that I am a better person, wife, mom, grandmother and leader when I do. We have been back in NH for 7 months now and I still miss living in NYC. There is nothing like waking up to the hustle and bustle of the city. That said there is a calm to waking up in NH and being around that family, I am back here for them and they are the only thing that matters. So I am very happy about that.

Now lets get into 75 hard, what it is and why I chose to do it. Since being in my Ostomy I have done things like a fitness competition in Vegas 4 years ago, to doing the Hyrox competition in NYC right before Covid. Having my Ostomy hasn’t stopped me from doing these things. Fear almost has but I get my mind right and take one step towards it then follow through. I have been watching people on Instagram who have been doing 75 Hard for the last year +, at first I thought they must be nuts! It’s 2 - 45 minute workouts a day, one has to be outside, 1 gallon of water a day, reading 10 pages of a non fiction book and it can't be an audio book, Following a diet, No cheat meals or alcohol and take a progress picture everyday. Guys EVERYDAY! I was like these people are crazy lol. So well now here I am being crazy along with them. I woke up Sunday and said I need to do something, I need a challenge. There is a part of me that isn’t complete at the moment. So I thought to myself, I drink 1 gallon of water a day, I read more than 10 pages a day, I workout 1 hour a day, I take selfies everyday lol, I follow a macro based plan, so why not tighten that up. I have finished 4 days so far and am actually loving it. The second 45 min outdoor workout has become a daily walk, now its been nice out so we shall see how it goes when it’s raining, snowing and getting cold out but you know I can use the challenge. I will keep you all posted on how it is going and if you want to follow along I will be sharing more on my Instagram and Facebook stories!

Wish me luck and if you want to join me I would love the company!!
