PitBullMamaLiz Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 About to go for the last meal of my first ever W30. We are eating out, but I'm confident I can find something tasty and healthy. What an experience this has been! Tomorrow before I weigh/measure I'll post my thoughts/feelings about what I gained during my W30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PitBullMamaLiz Posted June 23, 2013 Author Share Posted June 23, 2013 I did it! Successfully completed a Whole 30 on my first attempt! Things I've learned: 1. Food is not a reward for myself - it is sustenance, and I should enjoy it, but I don't "earn" it. 2. Willpower - the further along I got, the easier it was to say "no thank you!" and not be miserable about it. 3. Moderation - I can be quite happy eating three meals a day with no snacks in between. 4. I don't need to fear any fruit - when I was doing low-carb I feared bananas, or mangoes, or other "forbidden fruits." Now I can quite happily enjoy them without feeling guilty. Now, physical results.
