Camille P. Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Day 31 Weighed in this morning and gained a pound after completing the whole 30. That stupid number crushed me for the day. I'm trying to find my mojo to keep on tonight. Yesterday I had listed all the positives I had experienced and it all seemed overshadowed when I weighed in this morning. Soooo again the positives of the last 30 days: Cut my caffeine in half. Sleep awesome at night compared to insomnia before I started. My tops fit better (stomach is flatter) Jeans are getting looser (bloating still ebbs and flows though) I'm not as consumed with food. I don't snack after dinner anymore on most nights. I (usually-except when I weighed!) feel much better in the morning Eating much more vegetables I've cut out my sweets habit and plantain chips habit I haven't had one of my old bingeing episodes for at least 30 days I am breaking sugar cravings My face looks better in pictures--not bloated/puffy Ok so reading tonight and trying to refocus my goals and plan this time. In the meantime, my food for today: M1: coffee w coconut milk. 3 scrambled eggs. Veggie smoothie w/ celery, cuke, yellow pepper, 1 1/2 mini mandarin oranges WO: Crossfit: 12 mins of hang cleans. 3 EMOM-worked up to 95 lbs (felt so good to add some weight to the bar after taking it so easy for so long). 3 rounds: 15 scaled push-ups to box, 25 strict pull-ups on thick black band, bike .25 mile. Shoulder exercises/t-spine rolling, smashing shoulder M2: kombucha. Leftover Paleo chicken nuggets from last night in a green salad with alfalfa/broccoli sprouts, tomato, cuke, carrot with paleo vinaigrette Snack: 1 compliant chicken apple sausage w mustard, 1 avocado M3: ribeye steak, 1/2 large sweet potato & spinach w clarified butter. Couple slices of watermelon I trying to pay attention to portion sizes more this time and plan not to snack on nuts and whe. I do eat them, to follow template closely.ni think I will go back through the daily emails and read them each day and dig more into resources given. I'm really hoping to lose some weight.

Camille P. Posted August 20, 2015 Author Share Posted August 20, 2015 Day 32 After getting some great input in the troubleshooting forum (as well as encouragement!), I'm tightening things up this time. This segment of my Whole 60 these will be my goals: Stick to the meal template and keep track of amounts. Already in the last 2 days I'm noticing a difference in my meal content as I'm focusing more on this. When I eat nuts, I will eat "up to one closed handful" as my fat source in a meal. No more just grabbing them. I will really limit nut butter. Eat mostly cooked veggies (as it was wisely pointed out to me raw veggies can be bloating...and I was eating raw cabbage all the time.) Track sleep. Drink 99 oz of water a day (this is a lot of water!!) Sleep: 11pm-5am (woke up early and went to bed too late. 6 hrs ) Water: 88 oz (didn't.make it. Whew! That's a lot of water) 5:30am: coffee w ~1/6 can coc milk 7am: M1- black coffee. 2 fried eggs, 1 chicken sausage, sautéed yellow pepper, green onions, & arugula, cooked in ~1tsp coc oil, 1/2 avocado 8:45 am WO: 25 mins steady pace arc trainer (set at 35). 35 mins stretching, rolling, PT 10::15 Post WO: slice of sweet potato,small piece ribeye 2:50 pm (late!) M2: 2 palm size ribeye pieces, warmed arugula, 1 T olive oil, 1/2 lg sweet potato w ~1 T. Clarified butter. 1 bottle cranberry kombucha. 1 peach 5:45 snack (weird day. I went out late with friends which I never do): banana, chick sausage w mustard 8:45 M3: Dinner out w friends. 2 carne asada tacos with no tortillas and I ordered without cheese. There was a little sprinkled on top so I scraped it off and didn't eat it. Squash they said was cooked in EVOO. Guacamole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend get me and it has stevia in it. I drank some and stopped and didn't finish Tonight I want to stop doing this, it's day 38. I want to add back in yogurt and oatmeal. I still don't feel like my body has changed much. I started adding in snacks again so I do see that. I felt hungry when I ate them and I had the worst pms for a week and a half so I feel like it was hard not to snack--plus the weekend and in all kinds of eating scenarios. After sleep I'll reexamine tomorrow Uggh. Feeling defeated tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day 45 Coffee w CM PT exercises M1: breakfast meatloaf (w lots of veggies in it), 1/2 avocado. 1 peach M2: chicken "pasta", sundried tomatoes with spaghetti squash w pinenuts on top. Kombucha Snack-4 hrs later. Banana w cashew butter M3: carne asada, guac, greens, tomato salsa. Couple handfuls of Mac nuts ( I felt so hungry for fat!) went back and had more Mac nuts after that. Natural calm stirred in a little apple juice (is that ok?! That powder is so sour!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
