heathera Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I have done 3 rounds of the Whole30 completely compliant over the past year...this round I have made some modifications for my first week which include protein powder and a bit of dairy...I know it's not an officially compliant Whole30 yet...and some of you will say not to call it that...which is just fine. Let's just say it's my pre-w30-w30. Day 1 Meal 1 coffee & coconut milk protein powder (no, it's not technically w30, but it's what I have now) almond milk (last of it) 2 eggs sweet potato hot sauce banana 5 almonds Meal 2 Milxed greens cilantro carrot 1/4 avocado braggs liquid aminos taco soup Meal 3 apple 5 almonds Meal 4 Chili Sweet potato Meal 5 Tomato Cottage Cheese Day 2 Meal 1 Protein powder full scoop & 1/2 scoop Vanilla Shakeology 1/2 grapefruit Meal 2 2 eggs asparagus small sweet potato banana almonds Meal 3 turkey taco soup mixed greens & carrots Meal 4 pear almonds Meal 5 turkey tomato & basil butternut squash protein powder Day 3 Meal 1 Protein powder full scoop & 1/2 scoop Vanilla Shakeology Meal 2 2 eggs asparagus small sweet potato banana almonds Meal 3 chocolate chili mixed greens & carrots Meal 4 apple cottage cheese Meal 5 2 chicken breasts broccoli Day 4 Meal 1 Protein powder full scoop & 1/2 scoop Vanilla Shakeology Meal 2 2 eggs asparagus small sweet potato banana almonds Meal 3 taco soup mixed greens & carrots Meal 4 apple Meal 5 salmon cauliflower rice baked apple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andria Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Excellent for you to be making some changes!. I would, however, consider this your day one in transition to a Whole30. As you said, the protein powder is not Whole30 and the almond milk ( if not homemade) and Braggs are not as well. It's really important to be sure things like soy(in the Braggs) and carageenan(most likely in the almond milk, along with other nasties if it is a commercial product) are completely out of your diet. So, don't cheat yourself of the benefits of the Whole30 and make your Day 1 once you have removed those items from your diet. Good luck! Edited to say: also meal 3 is not a meal. Follow the meal template: protein, fat and veggies http://whole9life.com/book/ISWF-Meal-Planning-Template.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted October 28, 2013 Moderators Share Posted October 28, 2013 Nope. You have not begun a Whole30 yet. Having protein powder does not make it okay during a Whole30. Also, most commercial almond milk includes carrageenan, a nasty additive that causes gut problems that warrants an immediate restart at any time. Braggs Liquid Aminos are made from soy and are not okay during a Whole30. Meal 2 and meal 3 are lacking protein. There might be a little there, but not nearly enough to satisfy the Whole30 meal template: http://whole9life.com/book/ISWF-Meal-Planning-Template.pdf You could call this day 0 and tomorrow day 1.

I'm a rebel like that. I am aware of carrageenan, and soy. I own, and have read It Starts With Food, and...I am aware it's not an officially compliant Whole30 yet. Some of you will say not to call it that...which is just fine. Let's just say this week is my pre-w30-w30. I appreciate the valuable feedback.
