Week 10 of 75 medium is down and we are counting down the final days! In case you missed week 1, week 2, week 3 , week 4, week 5, week 6, week 7, week 8, and week 9 recaps, there are plenty of other meal ideas for 75 medium there. If you are also doing the 75 medium challenge (or the 75 Hard or 75 soft challenge), hopefully these posts can give you some healthy meal ideas and inspiration or (at the very least) solidarity!– I know that’s what I sometimes have the most difficulty with.
And just in case you have zero idea what the 75 medium challenge is, here is a video and a post to fill you in:

75 Medium Week 10 Recap
Final stretch! I am ALMOST done with this challenge although a lot of the things I’m doing I plan to continue doing because it is habit at this point. Once it’s over I will definitely give myself more grace about workouts, but I feel good doing some kind of workout every day, so I WANT to stick with it. This week was the second time during this challenge that I had alcohol. Limiting my alcohol has been the easiest thing to stick to– probably because I’m not a huge drinker anyway.
I am excited to be done though, mostly to feel less obligated to sticking to everything. The diet part of this isn’t too challenging– mostly because I think you can allow yourself treats but you can balance it with a salad, or fruit, or something high in protein to make it a well-rounded meal. As you will see, I had pizza this week and I don’t feel an ounce of guilt about it! You shouldn’t either if you are doing this challenge and don’t eat something that is super nutrient dense. Limit your portion size and balance it with something that is nutrient dense!
