Day 6, 7 & 8 Updates: 75 Hard Challenge
(I discovered something I didn’t know)
Hey everyone!
I’m back with updates on my 75 Hard Challenge i.e. Day 6, 7 & 8.
In case you missed the previous updates, you can check them here⬇️
Day 6
I woke up this morning feeling better than yesterday.
After getting out of bed, I jumped right into some household chores like- making my bed, tidying up the room, etc.
It feels good to start the day with a clean space😊.
Then it was time to hit the gym. Today’s workout was focused on thighs.
After finishing the thigh workout, it’s time for me to attend the yoga session that I had every Saturday.
This whole session was very relaxing. It also helps make my body more flexible.
After the gym, I was literally starving. So, I headed home and had a good breakfast.
Then it was time to get to work.
I sat down at my laptop and worked till 4 (took a break for lunch only!).
For the evening snack, I decided to make a besan chilla.
If you don’t know what that is, it’s like a savory pancake made from gram flour.
It’s pretty healthy and really tasty.
I asked my brother & mom if would they like to eat it and as usual they said a big ‘YES’.
I went to the kitchen and started making the chillas. My brother (aka Minjhiya) accompanied me in the kitchen.
He usually sits in the kitchen with me whenever I am making something interesting. We discuss work, life, etc. during this meal-preparations.
After my late lunch, it was time for my second workout of the day.
I finished the 10k Steps challenge.
Finally, it was time to wind down for the day. I read my book and then, after a full day, it was time to sleep.
Another day of the challenge is complete!
Here’s the diet & nutrition related detail :
Day 6: Diet & Nutrition
Day 7
I wake up around 8:00 am.
Since it was Sunday, the gym was closed I did some yoga at home.
After my yoga session, I had breakfast.
As you may know (if you read my previous posts) I’ve to attend an engagement party tomorrow.
So, I had a lot of preparation to do. I needed to buy some stuff for my brother and my mom and also had to go to the parlor for some clean up & waxing-related stuff.
I managed to get some work done until about 4 PM.
Then it was time to head out to the market.
My first stop was buying the remaining clothes I needed for myself.
Next, I went to drop off my suits at the tailor for stitching.
Then it was off to the parlor. All of this took about an hour.
It was a bit of a whirlwind, running from place to place!
When I got back to the tailor to pick up my clothes, he had a bit of a surprised look on his face.
Turns out, he had forgotten to fit my clothes! He asked me to wait while he quickly did the fitting.
So there I was, sitting in the tailor shop, waiting. But you know what? I didn’t waste that time.
I pulled out my book and got some reading done for the challenge.
Always good to make use of unexpected free time🙌!
After getting my newly fitted clothes, I headed to a shoe showroom.
My brother was waiting for me there.
He wanted to buy some loafers, and I needed a pair of sandals for myself.
We spent some time searching and finally found what we were looking for.
By this point, both Minjhiya and I were starving. So, we decided to treat ourselves to some South Indian food.
There’s a cafe which is one of our favorite spots to hang out!
We decided to go there and ordered a dosa. It was delicious and just what we needed after all that running around.
After our late lunch (or early dinner?), we bought a few remaining things we needed and then headed home.
Once we got back, we had a light dinner (because of our late dosa meal).
Although I had planned to do a pedicure and apply my DIY face pack in the evening, I was too exhausted that I went to sleep without doing a single thing!
Oh, and guess what?
All that shopping and running around meant I hit my 10,000 steps goal for the day without even trying!
Day 7: Diet & Nutrition
Day 8
Today was Day 8, and it was a special one — the day of the engagement party!
I woke up early around 6:00 am, usually, I’d hit the gym, but I knew I’d be short on time.
So, I decided to do yoga at home instead.
After yoga, it was time to get ready. I did a DIY face pack and gave myself a pedicure.
We left the house around 11:30 AM. I was all dressed up and ready to celebrate!
We reached the location, greeted our relatives, danced, and took some pictures.
Around 6:30 PM, we said our goodbyes and headed home.
When we got home, the first thing I did was make myself a cup of tea.
There’s nothing like a good cuppa to help you unwind after a busy day.
I sat close to my window, sipping my tea, and just let myself relax for a bit.
I still needed to get my second workout in and complete my 10,000 steps.
So, after my tea break, I headed out to the park and finished the 10k steps.
Then it was time for the last task of the day — reading.
I read the book after having my dinner and slept.
Day 8: Diet & Nutrition
So that’s Day 8 done and dusted!
Can’t wait to see what Day 9 brings!
