monifrancio Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Hello everyone. I'm new on the forum and this is the first time I try whole30. This is my 11th day on the programme and things are going fine (even though I am still not able to train properly and run as I used to pre-whole30). The first week I noticed that my belly had almost disappeared and my clothes were fitting better and I could see that I had lost some weight. In the last few days though I am bloated again and I feel heavier and slightly uncomfortable. I haven't changed anything on the diet. Is that normal? is my body now all over the place now? Sometimes I feel that I'm eating too much fruit. Can that be the reason? thanks in advance for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlaccini Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 It is pretty normal for this to happen around this time. However if you are able to post a couple days worth of meals here we might be able to help you troubleshoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators LadyM Posted July 12, 2014 Moderators Share Posted July 12, 2014 Raw veggies, fruit, nuts, and seeds can all be terrible culprits when it comes to gas and bloating, and you're eating all of them. Also, you might want to take another look at the template. Fruit is not an acceptable between meal snack. If you're hungry enough for a snack, it needs to be a mini meal complete with protein, fat, and veg. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monifrancio Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 thanks a lot. I'll read the template more carefully! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monifrancio Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 I'll be doing this all wrong then. I'll start again. I will be posting a few questions in meal planning. Thanks ladyM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Strathdee Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 No need to restart! Just keep those things in mind as you move forward, None of the issues mentioned above are a part of the Whole30 rules, just our best recommendations for success.
