rrgroom19 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I can't believe it's already been 30 days, the past 20 days have flown by. The first 10 day, though, I thought several times I might not make it through without giving in. I'm kind of disappointed, though, because although I feel good, some things aren't going so well. My skin has actually gotten worse, I have pimples now which I haven't had in years. My digestive system is completely out of whack, I'll be constipated for days and then have really bad diarrhea. I never got a rush of energy, I sleep well at night but can barely drag myself out of bed each morning. I haven't exercised (other than walking in the evening) because I've been so tired. Other than those complaints, I feel good. I have eaten three meals a day and haven't snacked at all (with the exception of day 10 -that was a really bad day and I broke down and had a banana and almonds). I feel satiated after each meal and don't feel like I'm deprived of anything. I don't crave sugar anymore, which is major for me because I used to eat several sweets a day. My clothes fit better, and I'm really excited about that! I plan on starting another whole 30 in a week or so and I will force myself to exercise this time, hopefully that will give me more energy. Overall, I'm glad I did this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omd21 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Congratulations on finishing! I'm sorry to hear some things haven't sorted themselves out. I hope others with more experience can chime with their thoughts on these issues. The way I see it though, you already won because you have been nourishing your body with whole, nutritious food for a month!! That in itself is a huge accomplishment!!
