Tamielle Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Hi, I am up at 4:30am and have breakfast at 5am. I started day 1 yesterday and was really hungry by 10am, so I had my pre-wo snack a banana and a small handful of nuts. I had lunch at 12:30 then another small handful of nuts at 4pm before travelling to the gym for my workout at 6pm. I am home by 7:30pm for dinner and bed by 10pm. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Physibeth Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 We recommend you follow our meal planning template: http://whole30.com/downloads/whole30-meal-planning.pdf I highly recommend printing that out and putting it up in your kitchen. Being hungry at 10am after eating at 5am is normal. 10pm - 4:30am is really not enough sleep and could put a damper on your efforts, aim for 8-9 hours of sleep a night if you can. Pre-workout snack should be protein and fat no fruit. Limit fruit to meal times. If you stick to this type of schedule I would suggest 5 am Meal 1, 10 am Meal 2, 5 pm pre-workout meal of protein and fat, post-workout meal of lean protein and starchy vegetable 15-30 min post workout, 7:30 pm meal 3 and maybe try to get to bed by 9:30 and at least get 7 hours of sleep.

Tamielle Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 Thanks for the advice. Yeah I prefer 8hrs of sleep but this next 4 weeks are going to be hard to get that and still fit in a workout after work. After this weekend I will have a bit more time as I will be able to prepare my lunch in advance as last night I was cooking that after dinner.
