peacedance Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I started on July 24th, too. I attempted to do a Whole30 about a year ago but only got to day 15 - I was not able to break the food addiction cycle and gave up. This time, I feel very motivated because of knee/leg pain, tiredness, and digestive issues (not to mention being about 100 lbs overweight). At first I was going to wait until August 3, when I am back at school and in a routine (and also after a big family party on Aug 1), but then I realized I didn't want to wait one more day to feel better. So, I started officially yesterday, even though I was at a workshop all day where we were only offered cookies and chips for snacks and people crinkled their chip bags during the whole presentation. I think that was a good test. I brought my lunch and snacked on almonds (before reading that we're not supposed to snack if we can avoid it). Today I cleaned out my fridge and did a lot of shopping, starting with the farmer's market - the highlight of which for me is usually getting a breakfast sandwich - but instead I loaded up on lots of fresh veggies and fruit. The shopping was an effort, in getting used to what not to buy. But I am enjoying browsing recipes and I feel empowered and ready for the coming week. I'm really glad to have this forum to share and hear others' stories. Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
