Day 23 of 75 Hard brought one of the toughest food challenges yet — college football game day! We had company over, and the temptation was at an all-time high. From queso dip to mini pigs in a blanket, it felt like a true test of discipline.
While I did enjoy some of the healthy, delicious options we made, I stayed committed and skipped the queso, pigs in a blanket, and even the drinks — though I won’t lie, I was seriously craving a crisp margarita or glass of wine. Watching everyone else eat, drink, and celebrate definitely gave me a little FOMO, but the satisfaction of sticking to my goals felt even better in the end.
As for my workouts, I got a little more creative today and spent part of my second workout playing laser tag outside with my kids. It ended up being a lot more of a workout than I expected — running, ducking, and laughing the whole time. It felt so good to be having fun and getting in some cardio at the same time. We followed it up with a yoga session to finish off the 45 minutes and wind down together.
Key Lesson of the Day: The hardest moments of temptation are often when your discipline grows the most.
