msssjenna Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I dont know whats wrong with me. I started Whole30 and it was nothing but greatness for weeks 1-3. I had an increase in ernergy, my mood was better, I slept better .. the whole 9! (no pun intended). I am now on Day 24 and just dreading it. I want chocolate! cookies! any and everything I know I cant eat. We had a cookout on Memorial Day and someone brought cake and ice cream. It devasted me I couldnt have any. I induldged in pineapple instead. I know sugar would turn my stomach upside down but I am just craving something. My meals have not changed at all (can post if need be) so I dont know if its because my brain knows Day 30 is only 6 days away or what. Is it just me? I was hoping to continue on like this but I feel like now I am crazy for restricting so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridget Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I finished my 2nd Whole 30 yesterday, and not only were the cravings more frequent than during the first-but they all started between week3-4-and were pretty bad ! I white-knuckled myself thru them, and reached day 30 with complete compliance. Now I am like meh- whatever, and am not so intent on having those things, ok CHOCOLATE, that I so desperately "needed" during the final 2 weeks. I took the kids today to Mystic Aquarium, and then the great little marketplace across the street. lots of cute shops- and homemade fudge. Not even interested-for real !!! I don't know how all that works psychologically, but maybe now that I CAN have it, it's not as necessary... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msssjenna Posted May 29, 2013 Author Share Posted May 29, 2013 You're right, it's all mental right now. I really don't need it but because I see it, I want to taste it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beets Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 That happened to me near the end too. I think the best thing is to decide what you will or won't eat after your w30 ends. Make sure you have compliant food. Non compliant food will be screaming your name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatgirlskinny Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Hey Bridget, Just out of curiosity, did you loose much weight after your whole30? I feel better but only on day 11 and it seems like such a loooong way to go! Main reason for doing it is weight and not health as I don't really have any health issues I just want to be SKINNY!!!

Jtandi Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I did a whole100 with some other people on here - we found that pretty much across the board our cravings where most intense around week 5/6... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
