juliejane68 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I just found this forum and wished I had seen it from the start. I have a google doc that I've been sharing with a sister and a friend for feedback, but they are busy people. Whether or not anyone responds to this log, I'll at least feel like it's public. I started my first whole 30 on May 1st and got through 16 days beautifully before a farm wedding convinced me I needed a gingery adult beverage. I restarted and made it until last weekend when a trip to a conference out of town also led me astray (yep, I know it was really me leading ME astray!) I have been on track since then, but I've got a month now with no events. I'm going to start today as a day 1 for super accountability and hope to extend my stretch all the way to 30 this time. Day1: Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs, salad greens, guacamole Lunch: turkey patty, steamed broccoli with olive oil, small bowl sliced bananas and strawberries Dinner: salmon patties with sweet potato, salad greens, olive oil, lime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmcbn Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Hey there Just a couple of things you should note:Larabars & trail mix do not constitute a meal. Larabars are for emergency use only - as in stuck in the traffic for six hours with no gas station in sight for 10 miles in either direction emergency. Trail mix isn't even really good for a snack. Stick to the meal template of 1-2 palm sized pieces of protein, 1-3 cups of veggies, and 1-2 thumb sized pieces of fat (or a dollop of mayo, or a handful of olives, or whatever...)Take a look at Melissa's announcement from earlier this month on Fruit & Nut Bars....Eggs, when they are your only source of protein, should be the number of whole eggs you can hold in one hand - which is 3-4 for most females. Mixing up your proteins will help to keep you feeling fuller for longer - try mackerel with your eggs, or sauteed ground beef...Also, coffee, if caffeinated, is recommended to be taken before midday. Apart from disrupting sleep coffee can also have a diuretic effect so make sure you're getting enough water on board - you should be aiming for 1/2 an ounce per pound of body weight per day.
