Lynnefair Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I am starting my Whole30 tomorrow! I did a Whole45 in spring 2013 and couldn't get over how great I felt. Unfortunately, I visited family out of state immediately after and did not do a proper reintroduction. So, while I benefited from the 45 days while I was following the rules, I didn't get to benefit from finding out just what foods were not my friends. This time I intend to get the most from the entire process. Just returned from a beach vacation with my family where way too much of everything unhealthy was ingested! I look forward to the end of this week when I turn the corner to the wonderful sleep and ever increasing energy! Encouraging words and suggestions are always welcome!

Lynnefair Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Six days down and doing well. As with the first time around, the first 4 days had me wiped out - my workout on day 3 was brutal! No energy at all. But, I have to say the past couple of nights I have slept like I haven't slept in forever and my mind is so much clearer. My energy is starting to return - yay! I spent yesterday prepping food and freezing it for easy fix meals. I am motivated to knock out tons on my to do list! Hooray me! Lynne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birder Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 The sleep is the amazing thing for me also. I think it all starts there. Before you know it your up at dawn cooking and getting things done when you would normally be fighting the snooze. Congrats on the first 6 days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynnefair Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 Wow! Last night was night 7 and I spent the day working my butt off (if only literally!!) and when the day came to a close, I wanted a glass of wine so badly!!! I had this little battle in my head and ultimately decided that I was just over tired and falling back to my old ways. Then I took it a step further (this battle in my head) and determined that I like the way I am feeling and sleeping right now somewhat more than I enjoy a glass of wine and made a treat for myself of an apple with some almond butter w/cinnamon. Got me through the "crisis" . Now for week 2 of my adventure! Thanks for the support. L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
