alexisace1130 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I'm super excited to start my first Whole30. I'm also pretty nervous, I have never been able to stick to healthy eating. It's time for a stop!! I would truly appreciate any advice through my journey to healthy eating. Today is the first day and it has been a bit tough with cutting my sugar and dairy from my morning coffee. I hope I can survive. THANK YOU ALL!!!!

MeadowLily Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 When we come from a lifestyle of rewarding ourselves with food, it takes awhile to break those cycles. It's good to have a solid plan in place to divert those old urges and questions we can ask ourselves before we fall back into the old patterns. Is this stress eating? If I eat ____, after 5 minutes will it only compound the stress? Stress eating only satisfies for a very short time. Everytime we pass on stress eating - giving into cravings vs. authentic hunger, that muscle grows stronger and we can break free of rewarding ourselves with food.

alexisace1130 Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 I don't think it's stress eating as much as having such a fast pace life. Between Work and taking the kids to practice it makes it so much easier to buy fast food, rather than prepare a healthy meal. I have to break that bad habit, figure out a way to prepare multiple meals that would last a few days during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krista Billows Rodriguez Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 The crock pot can be your very best friend! A chunk of protein can be stretched to multiple meals saving time and sanity. Good luck this month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
