laodamaren Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Hey all!My name is Andrea, new to Whole30! It's the first time I'm going to commit to this, although I have been on a Paleo-ish diet for a while due to health reasons (chronic illness, allergies, fatigue..) and already noticed the benefits. I was severely hypothyroid, but my symptoms have gone away for the most part. My blood values have come back to normal again and I am allowed to finally step down from the medication, slowly and steadily. In order to make the progress go more smoothly ( ie: least possible hormonal imbalances), I decided to give the Whole30 a go. I will start as of tomorrow, the 21st of february, and continue as long as necessary (im guessing this is not 30 days, but actually more like 60), but I will be a bit more loose after those first 30, as I will have an anniversary celebration on March 26th One thing I will have to work around is my own birthday, which is on March 1st. But I'm guessing it cant be that hard. Never been too much of a 'cake, pastries and tons of pizza and alcohol' fan, so why change that?As for physical activity, I will continue what I'm doing now: Yoga, Pole Fitness and weight lifting (total around 6 days a week of training, but rest of the day is more or less sedentary as I am a student in Engineering school at the moment ) I hope this will go well, as I have a serious issue with "grazing" throughout the day, but I think if I just focus on that I can go against it. (Not buying salted cashews any more, those things make me go nuts ) In good health Andrea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.Mathias Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Hi, I'm committing and starting my first Whole 30 tomorrow, February 22. A little nervous, mostly about eating something by accident. Went food shopping and got lots of great produce and meats. I run 4 days a week, so I am curious to see how that will go since I'll be changing my nutrition before and after my workouts. Best wishes to both of us!

emilysheafit Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I just started mine yesterday! I have been beyond nervous about accidentally eating the wrong thing! This is my first time and I'm beyond excited to see what this journey brings me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
