laureldID Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I am just wrapping up my first day on this plan, and what I missed most was CHEESE. My boyfriend had a great idea--put an over-easy egg on top of salmon to make it creamier (simulating the cheese creaminess). Delicious! I felt very snacky today...any suggestions on getting through cravings? Also--why is coffee allowed? Doesn't coffee muck up the system? I just want to make the most of my plan, and if I should eliminate coffee...well, I don't want to, but I will! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators ShannonM816 Posted March 2, 2015 Moderators Share Posted March 2, 2015 The best way to not feel snacky is to eat plenty at your meals. It may take a week of playing with amounts, but when you get to where you're not hungry for 4-5 hours after a meal, it's easier to avoid snacking. Coffee has been discussed a lot on the forum. I think the main reason they don't make giving it up a rule is that no one would ever actually do a Whole30 if they were told to give up coffee too. This thread has a lot of discussion, and be sure to read the Coffee Manifesto that's linked in one of the first posts there -- and if you want to read more, google Whole30 coffee. I ended up giving up coffee during my first Whole30 because I couldn't stand it with just coconut milk or coconut oil. I've since added it back in, but definitely drink a lot less of it now than I did back when I'd put milk or half & half and sugar or those flavored creamers in it. You're always free to leave things out of a Whole30 if you feel that they're not healthy for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
