msegalla1 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I am SO thankful that this topic! I am on day 4 of my second Whole 30, and it seems that this time around, the emotional has happened a lot quicker and a lot stronger than the first one, back in January. I have been eating pretty well in between, and the sugar dragon isn't the problem this go 'round, it is the emotional frustration, weepiness, and mild depression I am attempting to handle. Would love to go home and crawl under the covers! Was not expecting this so soon into my month, so I think that has thrown me off guard, as well. Each one is different, it seems, and the unexpectedness is just having me wish I could assuage the inner 2 year-old and throw a tantrum! Glad to see other perspectives-- and how people came out the other side. I'm in my late 40s, and know that hormones are playing a role ( period is next week)-- wish I could find a level playing field... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaLee Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 I confess, at noted above, that after I first posted this I crashed and burned. A lot. But now I am Day 4 of a new Whole45. Trying to just feel feelings as they come up, and use this forum and Facebook support group to address crazy cravings. By the grace of God (who sends you wonderful people), I'm hanging in there. I don't even want to kill anything today. Yet, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LindaLee Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 Day 9 and hanging in there...really, really tired and having some weird inflammation symptoms, but I'm training for a half-marathon and it's been super humid, so...at any rate, I'm still standing!

LindaLee Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 Izzy, I swear the training is harder than the half will be...I'm learning I'd rather Crossfit five times a week than run three. But I'm determined to do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megsymoo Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I've had the opposite problem you might say " wow you're lucky!" But I feel like it's not working as I don't have the symptoms I should! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
