TheAndreaK Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 Day 11 - April 9th: Breakfast: two scrambled eggs, three slices of prosciutto, strawberries Snack: some raw cashews Lunch: Chocolate chili Snack: strawberries Pre-workout snack: Chomp snack stick Dinner: spinach salad w/avocado dressing and an RxBar coconut cacoa flavored. Not as a snack replacement, as a meal replacement due to time restrictions Water all through the day, tea with breakfast and lunch. This day was the first day that I truly felt frustrated and kind of wanted to give up. My performance at the gym was a bit weak and I felt dizzy ALL DAY. But I now suspect that to be allergies and now related to my healthy diet. I got overzealous and gave up all of my meds a week ago. I get excited, man. I've restarted the meds.

TheAndreaK Posted April 15, 2015 Author Share Posted April 15, 2015 Day 17 - April 15th Breakfast: one egg, one savory herb sausage, spinach w/avocado dressing Snack: one chomp stick and some cashews Lunch: shredded & sauteed zucchini with roasted red pepper and spinach chicken sausage and marinara. Dinner: roasted sweet potato w/mashed avocado & bacon on top, raspberries I also haven't mentioned that each day I drink unsweetened iced tea and water. I have a snack between breakfast and lunch because I eat breakfast at 6am and try to not eat lunch until 11:45. That's a bit too long without food but I don't want an earlier lunch. Note: I believe I had my first night of deep, uninterrupted sleep. I slept soundly, I don't recall ever opening my eyes to see what time it was, and I was awakened by the alarm. Also, I kind of feel like the dark circles under my eyes are lightening up a bit and I have a dry patch of skin above my lip that seems to maybe be clearing up. I'll keep my fingers crossed on both of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAndreaK Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 Day 23 - April 21st Breakfast: two scrambled eggs in bacon grease (my favorite cooking fat thus far) and strawberries hot green tea snack: raw cashews Lunch: cashew, chia seed, flax seed crusted chicken, sauteed zucchini & red peppers, and roasted sweet potatoes w/coconut oil snack: strawberries pre-gym snack: blueberry RxBar Dinner: roasted red pepper & spinach chicken sausage, zucchini, marinara I am sleeping great, I've lost weight, my belly isn't as bloated, I don't feel that 3pm crash. I went to the gym and worked out. I felt good. Nothing hurts! But I do get dizzy when I'm exerting myself. My blood pressure is now 98/67. The only thing I have honestly missed is my morning coffee. When I started this process I thought my first food group to reintroduce would, without doubt, be legumes. Black beans and peanut butter were a staple! But now I think I'm gonna start with dairy. Just so I can have coffee at work! But only if I find a creamer that's not gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kittiestar Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Hi Andrea, I'm just starting out and reading from your entries I have picked up about chomp sticks, which I didn't know about and will order. Also didn't know about Rx bars.,..I'll check those out. Good for you up to day 24! Are you going to go beyond 30? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAndreaK Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 Hi Andrea, I'm just starting out and reading from your entries I have picked up about chomp sticks, which I didn't know about and will order. Also didn't know about Rx bars.,..I'll check those out. Good for you up to day 24! Are you going to go beyond 30? The RxBars are really good! Just be sure that you're not using them as a snack when you're craving chocolate or something like that. I've been using mine just as meal replacements before/after hiking or the gym. But they are really very good! I'm going to do the reintroduction to see how things affect me, etc. But my goal is to maintain my healthier way of eating that I've established during this process. I see no reason not. I've not really missed a lot of things, I'm eating delicious meals, I'm sleeping better, and I've lost weight! Why wouldn't I want that to continue. But if I see myself sliding too far into old habits I'll go another Whole30 without question! Good luck to you! There's a lot of support here!

kittiestar Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Yes, I think I'll just want Rx bars for my car or purse in case I get stuck somewhere without food. I'm really wanting to do my own cooking and eating lots of veggies for the most part. Cool that you enjoyed your program and want to continue later on! Hope that happens to me too!

TheAndreaK Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Day 25 - April 23rd I am woefully unprepared for my food today! Gah! My lunch is very small. I forgot my pre-gym snack. This may be my first real challenge of a day if I have to go out and find food in the world! Breakfast: two scrambled eggs in bacon grease, prosciutto, strawberries snack: strawberries Lunch: one cashew, chia seed, & flax seed crusted chicken tenderloin and roasted red pepper and spinach chicken sausage, zucchini, with marinara. Dinner: Chomp stick and coconut cacao RxBar. Something about today has my stomach way off. I feel bloated and disturbed. Today was not great in regards to nutrition. But I stayed on program.

TheAndreaK Posted April 24, 2015 Author Share Posted April 24, 2015 Day 26 - April 24th I HAVE NO FOOD! Good lord. I am not doing super well in the home stretch.

Breakfast - chomp stick, coffee cacao RxBar, hot green tea, an apple Lunch - shredded chicken w/salsa Dinner - sweet potatoes & bacon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
