Sueboo41 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 It does get easier! Some days are harder than others, but take it one day or one hour at a time. It's "only" 30 days! You CAN do this, and you'll be so happy with yourself by sticking to it. Use this weekend (or whenever you get a day off work) to prep to help make work/schooldays easier. My first W30 I found myself chopping veggies every day, so I learned to prep them on the weekend morning when I had more energy and then the whole week went better. My goal ended up being to not have to drag out the cutting board all week and it worked! I have also found that cooking meat ahead of time was huge... Make yourself a pork roast and cut or shred it. Great crockpot recipe Here: http://meljoulwan.com/2013/12/29/whole30-2014-week-1-meal-plan/. Also cook up some chicken thighs and breasts in the oven. All that doesn't take too terribly long on the weekend. .. You can pack your cooked meat, veggies and nuts for a great, easy to eat lunch. Also found that having a few snak bags packed with 10 olives make packing easier in morning rush time.. Grab the stuff and out the door! I found great satisfaction in having another compliant day each day... I even went longer than the 30 days because eating this way felt great, but I think it took me 2-3 weeks before I felt like I was organized, though each step along the way it got easier. They say the first 10 days are the hardest usually. Don't give up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
