nydebs Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Congrats on your success!!! I too have succumbed to many temptations and excuses throughout my life. And thank you for the information about the 77 days- I hadn't heard that before but now at day 25 and was wondering what my new goal should be- you gave it to me- thanks!!

CharDoll Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 You.Are.Amazing. I just joined the forum & after reading that, I've decided to stick around a bit longer. Thank you so much! Had a rough patch the last two weeks, but I am knowledgeable enough now to get back to the whole30/ Whole 9 life eating plan. Happy to be in control again! Now just a few more days to quiet the sugar and carb dragon again. I'm inspired again by reading people's comments on this! Been at a plateau too ling, and need to break on through to the other side!

Hbombdiggity71 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Amazing story. Thank you for sharing and inspiring. I'm on Day 25 of my second W30 and will probably do another right after the first of the year. I lost 22 lbs during the first W30 and to be determined on the second but no matter what I still have a lot more weight to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empress Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I know it has been a while and I don't know if you're still active here, but I wanted to say "thank you" for sharing your story and your pictures. You look like a different person....not just because of the changes to your physique, but you're glowing, your hair is beautiful, your skin radiates and you look at least 10 years younger!

CharDoll Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Thank you everyone for your kind words. It's re-inspiring to me when I read your messages. I've had a rough last month. I haven't been able to shake a bad cold that has plagued me since the middle of December, and I'm just finishing up my first trimester (nausea, exhaustion, aversions, oh my!)! For the first time in 1.5 years, I went completely off the paleo/W30 wagon, but today is a new day 1! Sugar withdrawal is real and sucks. Going to power through though and have a healthy paleo pregnancy! Thanks again for all of your messages. I needed it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aila Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Hi CharDoll, Just popping in here to say CONGRATULATIONS on your pregnancy! And, thanks so much for your story and photos - so inspirational to me! I have just completed 5 months and am in this for the long haul, that's what first caught my eye many months ago - your thread name - as I knew I would be doing that, too. I appreciate your honesty about offroading, too, and want you to know that you have a large cheering section around you in support of your healthy paleo pregnancy. I so wish I'd known of paleo when I was having kids - instead, I downed an awful lot of ice cream... . Thanks again! Keep us posted on your progress!

This is my 3rd pregnancy, and is gearing up to be the healthiest, even with the nutritional off-roading during the first trimester. Thanks so much for your support!!!

CharDoll Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 2 weeks into a whole30 and 24 weeks pregnant! Feeling great and happy to be kicking the sugar that crept back in this winter. Will be happy to not have so much to lose weight wise after this pregnancy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharDoll Posted May 8, 2015 Author Share Posted May 8, 2015 Made it through the 30 days. Feeling fabulous. Did not gain 1 lb in the last 4.5 weeks, but baby belly has def gotten bigger while legs,face, and arms have lost again. Yay for Whole30. 14 weeks or so left in pregnancy and sticking to the plan!

CharDoll Posted May 8, 2015 Author Share Posted May 8, 2015 Lost 4 lbs right at the beginning, then stayed the same weight the whole time. I know it's not about the number on the scale, but when you're pregnant it helps you gauge a little! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeGA"gardener" Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Omg that's great when the baby's growing and not yourself! I haven't been a 14 in a decade and I'm now past meno so this is my hope W30 seems to be working for me Yea I'm not yet ready to story tell, we all have something to share and what a great place to share. Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
