I did it but there more I need to accomplish.

I did the W30 successfully but unfortunately I didn't do the re-introduction because I got really sick. But I became very aware of food and what it did to my body. Also, I lost 12 pounds which I know was not the main goal but it was sweet.

Once things settle down at work, I am ready to try again. I really think this book did change my life-it made me aware of food and my taste buds became alive thanks to W30.

I will start again and because I did it once already , I believe the second time it will be easier. And this time, I want to complete the re-introduction(hopefully I will not get sick. )

I am presently doing a modified W30 -I am drinking my daily glass of wine but otherwise I am staying away from grains (most of the time) and staying mostly away from sugar, legumes and dairy-saved creamer.

Congratulations on completing 30 days of compliant eating and losing weight. 

 

Important note: There is no such thing as a modified Whole30. You either do a Whole30 or you are doing your own program. Your program includes a glass of wine and occasional grains. Good for you. Claim it as your own creation because that is what it is.

Tom is right. One more thing: I really really hope your own program isn't just a 30 day program. They way you describe eating is the thing to do for the rest of your life. This is when you get to the good stuff: how you eat the majority of the time is what matters for life-long health and well-being, don't cheat yourself by stopping.

 

If your goal is to do a meaningful reintroduction, then do the real/complete/unmodified whole30 one more time. That's the only way that will work. After you complete it you can move on to your "modified" plan.

That makes sense. Thank you for the feedback.
