Adagio Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I haven't been posting here much lately as it is a busy time for me. August was my second month on Whole30. I had a couple of bad days where I ate some off-plan chocolate. In the beginning of the month, I ate way too many macadamia nuts. I think I might have lost 1 pound this month. That's fine, I'll take it! I'm back on track now. Since I plan to follow Whole30 as closely as possible forever, I'll be rolling right into September's challenge. We're embarking on a long road trip this fall, and I was concerned about the ability to eat approved food during the trip. We found a solution. We will be renting a condo, and it has a full kitchen. So I will be able to cook all of our meals. For the drive to and fro, we'll bring our own foods for breakfast and lunch, and probably eat dinner out in a steak place. I do have one planned "cheat." While driving through New Mexico, we will stop in Santa Fe and indulge in a fresh, homemade blue corn tortilla. I'm looking forward to the trip, and no longer stressed about how to stay on Whole30 for the duration. Lessons learnd about going off-track? If you eat a non-approved food, or over-indulge in an approved food - get right back on the plan immediately afterward! Don't fall for the trap of discouragement! All is not lost!

Laura B Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Nice to hear from you, Adagio. I thought your absence meant you were already on your trip. Enjoy your travels, and that tortilla! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colleen Roy Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Right there with you Adagio! We've been venturing off-road here and there since finishing our whole30 at the end of July. Never venturing "too" far off, but off none-the-less. It's all good-because each time we've eaten non-compliant food, or had non-compliant beverages we've gotten right back on track the next day. And we've discovered that one off-road day a week is not such a big deal-and best of all, the choices we make on those off-road days are no where near as bad as they were in the past. We typically split a meal or dessert now. Way less bad for us in the end! I love being so aware of what I am eating and how I am feeling. Good luck to you in this next phase!
