I'm back for the January Whole 30. Life is going on and I am getting older. It's time for me to be kind to me.

@MadyVanilla The ingredients for the stake bites and sweet potatoes are now on my shopping list. Thank you for sharing.

Keep it simple. I don't make items that take 8 items and 6 spices or have lots of steps. 

@MadyVanilla
Looks like you've created a great plan for yourself.

Good afternoon. I am redoing whole 30 as this quarantine has been very hard on me mentally and physically. My weight has gone up and I just don't feel healthy.

This is my redo post for day 1.
I need to do this for my mental and physical health.
Meal 1: 2 eggs, mushrooms, coffee with coconut cream
Meal 2: (created by my daughter) salmon with toasted coconut and mango, green smoothy with coconut milk added a little olive oil to mine.

For me, I find that if I have a large portion of fat with my first meal that I am not hungry until after 2 or 3. I do try to east a small meal at by 230.     YMMV

Good for you. I hope you get that large family. Enjoy your baby as they grow so fast. My baby is 19 today. 

Day 3 and all is on track.
All 3 meals on plan. Went to the office for cart reviews. Decluttered papers.
Didn't finish the laundry or kitchen but I feel like it was a productive day.
Got up late today so it will be bed time at 9. Monday I will be beck to work.

I have a 15 yr old and usually extras. Mine isn't eating whole 30 but for dinner she eats what I do as do the extras when they're here. The policy my parents laid down for us was you didn't have to clean your plate and you didn't have to eat everything. You did have to taste everything and you were allowed to spit it out if you didn't like the texture. I've raised my daughter the same way. There were things she didn't like at 4 but has re-tasted and decided she like.
 
My current way of thinking, if it isn't good for me, why am I feeding it to my daughter. I just keep making little changes to our kitchen and her diet. She does connect the 2. They do learn if we provide the knowledge.
