The "75 hard" rules are as follows:
Now, while "75 hard" is a great program -- there is one area where I struggled to stick to... TWO 45-minute workouts per day. If Frisella were standing here right now, he would tell me that I could have come up with the time to make these two workouts fit into my schedule and he would be right. However, those two workouts would not be my main priority in my current season of life -- and that's okay. So instead, I'm going to be doing a "75 medium". The rules are VERY similar, with a few minor adjustments:
I am going to start my "75 medium" on Monday, June 19th. Stay tuned for progress pics and updates! Preparing for 75 medium, here at the farmhouse, Hannah ❤️🏡❤️

Let's be real.
I know what I need to do. When I want to make healthy choices, I can. I am completely capable of making the right call when various food choices are in front of me. I've studied and implemented the Whole30 program. I've eaten using a Keto lifestyle for weeks (sometimes months) at a time. I did Weight Watchers for over a year and lost between 15-20 pounds. And then, one day, I'll feel so good in my own skin that I'll make the choice to eat something that isn't a healthy choice. Something like a donut from Koehn's Bakery... A pumpkin pie blizzard from Dairy Queen... Or a blueberry scone from Starbucks. And you know what? If I had consciously made a choice to have a scone and a caramel macchiato and get right back on track, that would be great!
And slowly, my weight creeps up and my pants feel a little tighter and that Stephens double-chin becomes a triple-chin.
And before I know it, I'm throwing a kid on my lap or in moving them in front of me every time we take a picture. I'm wearing flowy layers because I don't feel comfortable in my more fitted clothing. And I'm digging out my jeans that are a size bigger because I feel better in them.
But the thing is...it's never about how I look.
It's about how I feel. When I'm making good food choices, my joints are less achy. My face is clearer. I'm less irritable. I have more energy. So that's why when I got the email announcing the "Biggest Loser" competition at school starting this Monday...I knew this was a great opportunity to start again. Through the Farmhouse654 12-Week Challenge that several of us are going through this year, I'm working towards making my dream life a reality...with goals related to our home, relationships, finances, personal growth, and of course, health.
