youngann Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I'll be retiring on April 30th and will start my first whole30 on May 1st. In preparation, I've cut down my smoking from 20 a day to 8 a day and hope to reduce that further by D-Day when I'll quit altogether. I've already cut out most dairy and all caffeine - I know caffeine is allowed on w30 but I wasn't really enjoying my tea (4 or 5 cups a day) without milk so I just switched to herbal tea. I had a bit of a headache for a couple of days as the caffeine left my system but I figured I'd rather deal with that now than on the 1st. I've made up my first week meal plan and adjusted where necessary to accommodate my picky-eater husband, and I have my shopping list ready. I've also started buying some staples like my vinegars, oils, coconut milk, canned tomatoes etc...trying to spread the cost out over a few weeks. I must say that I like all of this planning ahead as each step I take is a reconfirmation that I'm going to start on this path to a healthy life. Is anyone else planning on starting on May 1st?

Marjanill Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Good luck, YA. With the changes you are already making, this transition should be a cake-walk! I'll be finishing my second whole 30 the day before you start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
