If my body were a temple, the bricks would be glued together with Cheez Whiz.

Okay, so sometimes I eat radishes and kale in between almost never-ending portions of hamburgers and leftover Chinese food.

But the leftovers run out from time to time. Hence, I rely on the radishes.

My idea of a balanced diet is a large Coke in each hand. But that changed when my sister told me about the 75 Hard Challenge.

The rules are simple enough. You have to do two 45-minute workouts a day, eat healthy, drink a gallon of water, and read 10 pages of a non-fiction book per day.

And you have to do it for 75 consecutive days. Easy, right?

If you fail to complete any of these tasks, you have to start from Day 1 again.

Clearly, this was a challenge designed for me. With my superior physical and mental skills, I was sure I’d have no problem breezing........
