captaincavemanpaleo Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Sci fi fans might get a giggle out of that title So I'm Barry, from Dublin Ireland. This is my first public whole30, I have taken the challenge once before but this time I'm doing it a bit more visibly. Hoping to keep a log here, on my facebook and my instagram mostly to keep track of my own progress and any mistakes. But also to help anyone else thinking of taking the leap.

Looks good except your M1 is lacking vegetables. The avocado is your fat. Also be sure your bacon is compliant. Best of luck to you on your journey!

iteach Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Bacon and avocado should be married, right? Best wishes on your journey...and may you find some favorite vegetables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck to you on your journey! Yeah thats a fair point Physibeth thanks. My meal prep time in the mornings is non existant so I'll have to try chomping on some raw carrot or celary sticks maybe. Need to increase my veg intake in any case. Thanks everyone! I'm off to a good start today already need to work on some meal plans tonight for this week though. Oh my bacon comes from a friends local farm, nothing added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my bacon comes from a friends local farm, nothing added You could also pre-cook a crustless quiche or frittata as quick meal 1 options. Personally I throw a couple of big handfulls of kale or spinach and cook down with sea salt and then scramble my eggs into that. Doesn't take that much more prep time than just making the eggs. I also really enjoy raw sauerkraut with my first meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
