HopelessDreamer Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 Day 27: so, in general I think I did pretty good. A few things could have been better. As I flow into the next few weeks (following Jan. Whole30) I can try to improve those rough spots. Problem is,I will be traveling again in two weeks, so my last week may be a bit rough. Maybe with the right planning I can get through. Meal 2: chicken soup w carrots and celery, small chunk of purple sweet, beef Coffee w coc cream,gel, yoga at home. 2 clementines Meal 3: chicekn legs and thighs,roasted cauliflower, green beans w mushrooms and onions Plantain chips, pecans, raisins and coconut flakes So tired.

HopelessDreamer Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 Day 29: last night walked to yoga, so I would not have to drive in snow. It felt good to walk, actually. snack after yoga: more beef and veggies, and sweet potato chips, peppermint tea. Day 30!!!! Woot! I am glad that I decided to keep going, as I am having ups and downs with feeling good and not so good. Fortunately, the good is outnumbering the less good. I feel like I am thinner, and my belly is flatter. Joints not stiff and sore all day, just a bit in the morning. No pain meds needed so that is REALLY good. So far today is good. Meal 1: almost put off eating since I couldn't think of what I am in the mood for. But I nibbled some roasted brussel sprouts and that woke up my taste buds. So, Leftover roast beef, brussel sprouts, 1/2 avocado w/fresh lime juice squeezed over all veg. Nettles-peppermint tea. Coffee w coc cream, banana w sunbutter. Pretty good meal!
