I am currently making way way through my second round of the 75 medium challenge (a fitness challenge somewhere between 75 hard and 75 easy). I’m in the final stretch after completing week 10, so it’s time for a recap of what I ate, what workouts I completed, and how things are going. I share all this so that if you are in the same boat, you may get some meal inspiration and some solidarity whether you are participating in 75 easy, 75 medium, or 75 hard (or just trying to start making healthier choices without putting a label on it!).
If you want to read more about my new rules and want your own free printable tracker, you can check it out here:

75 Medium Week 10 Recap
I am feeling like I am not going nearly as hard this round of 75 medium than I did the first time! Things have changed in my life when we took a foster placement, so I am finding it a little harder to stick to my sleep goals and eat as well. But it’s ok! I still am feeling stronger overall, which was my ultimate goal!
Hopefully y’all are still finding these posts helpful for some meal ideas!
