BeasieDoesIt Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 My name is Bea and I'm doing my second Whole30 tomorrow! My first one ended prematurely at the hands of Oreo cookies and cream ice cream. I am much more prepared this time! I am 24 and obese - though I am not focusing on weight loss throughout this W30. I feel that last time that's ALL I thought about and I didn't feel like I was losing enough to continue. This time I want to to be clear (to myself) that weight loss is NOT the primary factor in doing this. I am doing this to evaluate my relationship with food, kick my sugar addiction and point myself towards a healthier life path. My main problems are probably going to be my craving for sweets and learning how to not binge or mindlessly snack. Two things I will be happy to never face again. For whatever reason, I didn't realize there was a forum last time I tried this so it's great to have this community to turn to. I'm going to start a daily log in that section of the forum if you care to follow. I welcome any support and advice that comes my way, Thanks all!

Spunky Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Hi Bea, This is my 2nd time around and I too want to focus on food for fuel *only* and not mindlessly snack or think about the next time I get to eat! I'm 38 with 4 kiddos and its tricky with food because they eat all.day.long. And they are active and thin and fit, so I generally don't say no to snacks. When they snack, I snack. Not so good with a slowing metabolism! We can beat this together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeasieDoesIt Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 Thanks Spunky! Changing your eating habits with 4 kids would definitely be a challenge, kudos to you for doing it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princesspentium Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Hi Bea. Have you signed up for the daily emails? They are SO worth it and at $14.99 a bargain Ruthie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharynF Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Hi Bea, welcome! I was going to suggest the daily emails too but see my real -life friend Ruthie got their first (she's a friend so I'll forgive her!!). Sounds as though your head is in the right place this time. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeasieDoesIt Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 Thanks Sharyn and Ruthie! I was on the fence about the emails, wasn't sure if it would be worth it but since you BOTH mentioned them, I think I will. Thanks for the heads up!
