Augie Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Dedicated December is when you commit to doing an exercise everyday for the month of December. Starting December 1st I'm committing to doing something active every day, even if it's just for five minutes AND doing a Whole 30. I already eat a paleo diet but I cheat occasionally and I want to put a stop to that. I'm also hoping to get some health benefits. I have Lyme disease and I'm hoping this will help. This will be my log! So excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 Accountability Post I saw my doctor on Friday and he told me he wants me to be eating 3-4 cups of veggies with each meal and 3-4 tablespoons of coconut oil a day. Now that I've made an official post on it hopefully I'll be more likely to do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 Since I've started the whole 30 I've been eating more nuts than I normally do and I've had really, super itchy skin. I think I need to cut them out and see if it goes away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Day 10 - December 10 - Wednesday exercise - Bike 30 minutes, 200 sit-ups Breakfast - Pork chop, 1 tbsp coconut oil, tons of broccoli, asparagus, and bok choy Lunch - Pot roast, 2 cups of zucchini noodles, 1 tbsp coconut oil, 1/4 cup of berries, 1 cup of celery and carrots dinner - same as lunch Day 11 - December 11 - Thursday Exercise - 50 sit-ups Breakfast - Pot roast, 1 tbsp coconut oil, fennel, cauliflower, broccoli, asparagus lunch - same as breakfast Dinner - chicken, 2 cups of lettuce mix, cucumbers, carrots, a banana and more grapes than I could count So I ate a lot of grapes, but at least I didn't totally go off plan. I think fruit is a food without brakes for me. Once I start eating it I can not stop. I'm sitting here right now with a bloated and sore stomach, something I haven't experienced since starting the Whole 30, so I know it's all that fruit. Plus, I'm not supposed to be eating it because I'm trying to get rid of the Candida infection that I have. So, I'm redoubling my efforts to cut the fruit out. I've been successful with cutting out the nuts and I didn't think I would be able to do that. Today is day four without any nuts and the cravings are totally gone! So I'm pretty happy about that. I saw my doctor today. I've been suffering from pretty bad headaches and he wants me to try cutting out foods that are high in histamine. I think this is really going to help. So the foods that I can't eat that are high in histamine are pork, eggs, spinach, tomatoes (already don't eat those), nuts, berries, bananas, avocado, citrus fruits, dried fruit, and herbal tea. There are several more foods on that list, but these are the foods that I eat regularly. I already don't eat shellfish and fish because they've always given me headaches, which now I'm thinking is a histamine intolerance. Oh, and I need to make sure I eat my meat when it's fresh. I'm excited to do this and start feeling better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutlifr Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Do you drink enough water? You know that being even slightly dehydrated can cause headaches as well... And how good is that coconut oil, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 I've been low histamine for four days now and my headaches are already getting better.

Sticking to the Whole 30 but not my regular 3 meals of veggies, fat, protein. I've had water, bone broth, and a bit of banana. I'm already feeling much better.
