jtota Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 So i'm sitting here eating some reheated oatmeal debating over whether or not add more coconut sugar or some maple syrup - cause, you know, maple syrup is "healthier". Bottom line is, oatmeal sucks without sugar in it, so why even eat it? It has been my excuse for so long. "I can't give up my oatmeal!" Well, yes I can and I think it's time. I have tried this Whole 30 program before to disastrous ends. I am the worst self-sabotager on the planet, always finding reasons it wont work and then cheating here and there. But my body tells me it's time to try again. I have started going to Tilte Boxing classes and I do not have the consistent energy to make it through class by the end of the week - not acceptable. Also, I am back to grazing and snacking ALL day. Not good. Needing to shed a bit of fat, gain some strength, stop eating constantly, and increase my energy. I am over all that confusing vegan vs paleo mumbo-jumbo of the last few years, my sleep is excellent, and I am ready for a challenge. So . . . Begin! Well, begin tomorrow after I go grocery shopping anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErinD83 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 You can do this! 30 days goes by so fast - I can't believe I'm already almost finished! I'm feeling so good that I will definitely be continuing. It is so worth it - do it for yourself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErinD83 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Oh ya, I forgot to mention I used to also be a huge oatmeal addict - I would eat it for every meal if I could. I don't even miss it now! You will get past those cravings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elizabeth DeCorso Windel Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Hang in there!! I miss oatmeal terribly, but hoping that I can find something to replace it. I'm on Day 3 today so still in the middle of all the crazy cravings. I've tried the whole30 2 other times and didn't stick with it, so hopefully by posting here and making better choices I can make it through.
