Get out of the wagon

Then I had a large Philly cheesesteak, a foot long, with a side of six wings, medium well or hot, with blue cheese. I literally put a straw in the blue cheese and drank it…” she recalled in January 2024. TikTok. “Last night I had a tuna sandwich with bread and a Mountain Dew.”

Rocky Start

Try things again

Upon completion of the purge, LeCroy carried over to social media to celebrate.

Comfort Food Dupes

Her Kitchen Essentials
In January 2025 LeCroy took to his Instagram story to share that it did starting at 75 Hard challenge and wanted to give fans an idea of what her meal planning entails.
“Nothing fancy! The dishes I share are exactly as they appear. If you see a turkey patty, it’s straight from the store — no secret recipes, no homemade sauces, and definitely no fresh lettuce from my garden (because I don’t have any!),” she wrote at the time. “I just make foods and meals that I like, especially when I’m working on a program like 75 Hard. I’m happy you’re all excited about it!”
