It’s Wednesday, October 29th.
I have officially completed my first round of 75 Hard.
In a lot of ways the day encapsulated every reason I was doing this, the good and the bad. I had moments of joy, anger, sadness, regret, and acceptance. These are all things I need to do better at feeling, recognizing, and processing as I move forward in my life. Taking care of myself emotionally, and mentally needs to be a larger priority and this has helped me see those things and start the journey to fixing those shortcomings I see in myself.
It’s also helped me rethink and reprioritize my own health. While I didn’t break 300lbs, I did lose 28 LBS from the start of this challenge. A mixture of starting and maintaining a diet along with the working out twice a day has helped me feel better physically as a whole but also (Slightly) my own feelings on my body.
My goals moving forward will be more of the same. Take the things I’ve leanerd about myself and devote the energy and improving myself as a human, and focus on treating my body the way it deserves to be treated. Both of these things will help me as I grow older.
The saying “Quality over Quantity” is great, but sometimes, better quality, can increase the quantity. That’s my goes, not only for my health and well being, but my overall happiness and enjoyment I have in the short time I have on this floating rock.
A huge thanks to my family for putting up with my weird hours, diet, and moody behavior for the last 75 days. I can’t promise it wont continue during round two, but I can tell you that it should hopefully be easier/
I also want to thank all the friends and family that showd me support through all of my daily walk photos and blog posts. Your encouragement does matter to me and means the world to me.
To my 75 Hard Partner… thank you for being one of the best friends a person can ask for, and for pushing me along the way and convincing me to do this.
Day 1 of round 2 starts this Saturday, November 1st. Will talk to you then!
PS – If you’re reading this. You matter. Believe in yourself. Stay Awesome!
