mariah_papaya Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I did a Whole30 back in August and it was a life-changer. I've kept it up, and am pretty happy with how well I'm keeping on track on my own (it's easy when I feel this good!) But Christmas, I had at least some of every forbidden fruit, and alcohol is particularly creeping back in, since I have a super stressful job and that glass 'o wine (or two) is such a release for me. SO! Starting today, I'm back on it. I'll be logging, and doing it all right. I also want to up the stakes a bit, and do more exercise. I had such amazing results on my first round (lost 7lbs) even without doing much exercise. This time, I'm going to try and do *something* every day. That might just be a 15 minute walk on my lunch break, but it's better than nothing. Day 1: February 10 Meal 1: Two egg omelette with spinach, green onions, tomato, coffee with coconut cream Meal 2: Tuna salad with homemade olive oil mayo; artichokes, olives, cucumbers, dates, and spinach Workout: afternoon 6km jog. Post-workout snack: dates and tea Meal 3: Roast beef, potatoes, carrots, brussels sprouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted February 11, 2016 Moderators Share Posted February 11, 2016 You need to eat more. Two eggs is not enough protein at meal 1. Your post-workout snack offered no help to hungry muscles because it included no lean protein. Given those two things, I am assuming your meal 2 and 3 were too small too. It is important to fully nourish your body to support your metabolism. When you under-eat, you make your metabolism slow down and that retards fat loss. Study the meal planning template...
