Day 75

With one last chug of my gallon of water, I am done with 75 hard. Boring stats: starting weight fluctuates between 192 to 198 size 38 Jeans (US) large shirts. As of this morning, i weigh 161, and the jean size is down to a 32 fit in my medium shirts again. I read through almost 6 books books 1-4 Discourses by Epictetus and talking to stangers. The biggest challenge was maintaining my diet (no fast food, no caffine, no junk food, pre-made meals only after I've made them myself) first while constantly being invited places. This last week, work sent me down to Austin for work. Luckily, my coworkers were super accommodating, but it was tough to simply say no to different things, especially going out to bars and drinking water while they took shots, got fast food on lunch break, ect. Mentally, I feel like I've taken control of myself again, which is more important than my body just being better in shape. Good luck to those still finishing up and keep going.

Medicine question

Can I take pills with my water? Currently, I've been doing it to where I use a separate sip of water away from my gallon quota for my meds just to be safe, but Im not changing the plain water other than using it to help my medicine go down. Sure, the amount is negligible, but I'm asking more for curiosity sake

Day 50 Still Moving Along

Day 50

weight 168 starting weight 192. Finished books 1-4 of discourses by Epictetus. I'm in a phase where I wake up and say, "Do I really wanna do this again?" Then I just do it again anyway. Very tired. Said I'd do one of these every 3rd of the way, on to the last 25 days. Cheers and good night 😴 🥱

Day 25 Update

Good evening or morning lovely or not so lovely readers of reddit. 25 days ago, I started my 2nd round of 75 hard (on day 26 today) and said I'd give updates each third of the way through. I started at 192 lbs, and as of this morning, I weighed 174 lbs. Final photos will be uploaded when I finish again! Diet and workouts are locked. No caffine, and the withdrawls took a bit longer to go away around day 13 or 14 when all the headaches stopped.

I find it amazing how many people magically want to hang out with you when you start doing these, lol. In 25 days, I had 4 invites out for dinner, attended 1 birthday party, 3 work events, and 1 social event for an extracurricular activity outside work. I held strong and kept to my diet and watched happily sober as the others got happily, not sober. The first 2 weeks had rain each morning, so I got good at walking on wet concrete. Having all the "inconveniences" hit in the first third, I feel, has made this easier because the initial motivation is still there. I'm going into the second third, and I think it'll be the toughest cause you're the farthest from the shore and just have to swim yourself back to the shore, so to speak. Cheers, and I'll let yall know how things are going on day 50.
