March 12 - Day 10/75
❌ Food - Not terrible, but too much.
✅ No alcohol no problem
✅ Exercise - Two workouts: 1strength-1 aerobic. 20 minutes Pilates, then a slow walk around outside for about 30 minutes. Not a lot, but I needed a rest day, it seems.
✅ Reading - something helpful at least 10 minutes per day. Tons of reading today. All kinds of interesting rabbit holes and information I needed to find.
✅ Water - OK
✅ Thoughts - After yesterday's high energy, today was low. I turned it into a study day, but did not feel good about so much sitting around doing so little. I thought a lot about the line between real fatigue and laziness or lack of get up and go. I think I was really tired today, but at least I got a good amount of reading in.1 -

My 75 Day Medium Plan
Day 11/75 Wednesday March 13th
To keep it short:
kept to all my pledges today.
Just to share: in these first 11 days of following my plan, I’m sleeping better, my resting heart rate has dropped to an extremely healthy 59 beats per minute. I don’t have any heartburn at all. I’ve been waking up feeling hungry these last few days. I used to eat so much I forgot what hunger felt like.2 -
March 13 - Day 11/75
✅ Food - Spot on plan!
✅ No alcohol no problem
✅ Exercise - Two workouts: 1strength-1 aerobic. 20 minutes Pilates and 20 minutes kettlebells. A wonderful ride in the sunshine with my big guy Jasper - he was having a great time too. The back roads are hellish to drive on right now, but on horseback? No problem! The true ATV.
✅ Reading - something helpful at least 10 minutes per day. Good reading on my project ideas, and writing too.
✅ Water - OK
✅ Thoughts - Things are starting to focus. Yesterday was a step back, today was a step forward and it feels good. Some ideas are coming together slowly but surely, I am keeping strong with exercise and eating whole foods. feeling good!0 -
Just to share: in these first 11 days of following my plan, I’m sleeping better, my resting heart rate has dropped to an extremely healthy 59 beats per minute. I don’t have any heartburn at all. I’ve been waking up feeling hungry these last few days. I used to eat so much I forgot what hunger felt like.
This is great - waking up hungry is the best! I even like to go to bed feeling just the beginnings of hunger. And then aim to be hungry before each time I eat. Our bodies thank us for giving them more energy to do other things than digest, that's for sure. I wish I could get my resting heart rate lower, but I have quite low blood pressure, so my pulse tends to be a bit faster than I would like. I guess it all balances out.

Day 1️⃣1️⃣ of 7️⃣5️⃣
✅ Exercise: 75 min walk, 15 min resistance training
✅ Read: Finished Allen Carr’s Easy Way To Quit Emotional Eating. Overall it was okay but it didn’t ignite me. It talks a lot about junk food and not giving into the monster. It also talks about having a a final feast which I’m torn about. I try not to have foods that are off limits because it only causes me to fixate. Feel like this would actually trigger a binge. Still mulling this over. hopefully it’s still just all sinking in and something will get an aha moment soon.
✅ Water: Gallon
✅ Food: Mostly whole and minimally processed foods. Only exception lightly salted pumpkin seeds which were still too salty… maybe the tastebuds are shifting 🤔
✅ Added Sugar: Zero yay!0 -

📷 - Took a picture on our walk - Just want to say that it is so important on your weight loss journey to take these. I NEVER took pictures of myself. In the beginning as I was losing, Those around me (and myself) didn't see much difference because I've been taking it off real slow and they see me every day. It wasn't until 50 pounds lost that I l did an after picture. Please take pictures of yourself as you go through this process (you only have to share them with yourself) - It was so nice to see the difference and to know that all this hard work was actually working and noticable.
