Fergatron Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I had a reset and I'm on day 8/30. This time round I'm going for no coffee. The past week has been hell and I'm having major withdrawals but I'm sticking it out! Kinda worried though as I'm going through a stressful time and I'm fearing if something knocks me, I'll go off the wagon and eat the evil stuff! Anyone ever experienced this? Or have any suggestions? Food for today was: Breakfast: 4 eggs, steamed with spinach, carrots, radish, peppers, tomatoes in coconut oil. Green tea ro drink and my fish oils. Lunch: turkey with self made tomato, garlic and thyme sause with tender stem broccoli! Olive oil and water. Dinner will be: steak and steamed curry cauliflower with avocado. Getting a bit bored with green tea and water though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan W Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Why no coffee? Good for you if there's a good reason, but do you feel it's harmful to you in some way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergatron Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 I just wanted to see what happened lol clearly it's not worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergatron Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 So I had a reset again (fail) and I've just cleared day 21. I really struggled today and fought off the craving demons, but I didn't give in. I've been getting uber down and my head is killing me. I can't see this being withdrawals as I ate cleanish beforehand! Though I've seen amazing body composition changes, I feel aweful when I train and I feel tired the majority of the day. Anyone else faced this? Will it pass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergatron Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 Day 23 My food today was: Post workout: wild salmon and squash Breakfast: 4 egg omelette in coconut oil with sautéed veggies (onion, broccoli, sprouts) it almost didn't all fit on the plate... Lunch: prawns and tuna salad with cabbage, leeks, baby carrots, cherry tomatoes and avocado. Some cider vinegar too. Dinner: slow cooked chicken and cauliflower with spices. Added spinach afterwards Water, coffee and green tea to drink. Though I need a new drink... What's rooibos tea like? Otherwise feeling good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergatron Posted October 13, 2012 Author Share Posted October 13, 2012 Unbelievably I've rached day 28... I didn't think I'd make it here! I'm not sure if I want to add anything back into my diet as I simply don't miss any of it. I actually want to extend my whole30 longer and try to gain mass through clean eating. I feel amazing.. My performance is booming now and I'm getting body composition compliments! Why would I want this to change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergatron Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 Day 30... I'd never have thought I would make it here. Proud is an understatement! I'm going to continue onwards with this way of eating, but I'm upping my calories to try and actually gain some weight. I feel amazing bar a few stomach issues, but I've came to realise cauliflower and myself don't mix... Looking forward to the winter months! I've lost about half a stone and a whole load of body fat, from looking at my before pictures. My performance in training is through the roof.. Button strength struggles a bit. I'm sleeping like a log now and my head is a lot more clear. Happy as hell at the moment :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
