Round 2 & 3 for mangio_bene


mangio_bene

Recommended Posts

I had intended to start another whole30 when I returned from my vacation but now it turns out we'll be out of town again at the end of the month so round 2 will be a W18 beginning tomorrow and round 3 will be a W30 beginning on July 6th which will give me a couple of weeks for a proper reintroduction before leaving on a two week vacation.  This time my boyfriend will be participating 99% ... the 1% being that he refuses to give up half n half in his coffee.  For the duration of these rounds I'll be focusing on improving both length and quality of sleep as well as exercise.

 

Here's my first Whole30: http://forum.whole9life.com/topic/18266-first-whole30-for-mangio-bene/

I was so busy the last two days I had no computer time at all.  Tomorrow we're planning to take the hour trek to the excellent butcher to stock up on protein.  They make their own bacon without sugar and sausage with complaint ingredients.  And they sell  grassfed beef, properly raised pork and truly free range chicken.  They're in a low rent area and have reasonable prices.  I only wish my freezer was bigger.

Between long hours at work, trying to exercise most days and going to bed an hour earlier than I used to, I am spending much less time online which is probably a good thing but it's keeping me from logging everyday which I feel is a useful function.  Oh well ... the important thing is to stay on track.
