Halfway through my first Whole30

[MarleneRenee]

I just completed Day 16! 14 more days to go. It's going very well for me. I haven't had any desire to cheat - my goal of learning from the reintroduction phase is too great to allow me to cheat. I went out to eat for the first time today. I ordered spinach salad which included chicken and a hard boiled egg or two. I asked them to hold the bacon and I used my own dressing. My salad was fabulous and satisfying!

 

I have challenges this coming weekend. My daughter will be swimming in the Special Olympics Regionals on Saturday. We will be away from home for all three meals. I plan to pack a LOT of food. Then on Sunday, we have a wedding. I'm not sure how to plan for that.

 

You want to know what my biggest "miss" is? I've have found my biggest miss is GUM! I normally chew Orbit Sweet Mint daily and I especially chomp on it when I workout. I will look forward to being reunited to my gum eventually!!

This is awesome! I, too, am more than halfway, and very motivated. It's just not hard. Eating out is interesting, as there so much to consider. I like evoo and lemon for dressing. It's all good! Starting to see improvements in several areas. I'm missing cheese. And, chocolate.

Oh Sye! I, too, am missing cheese! I will be sad if I learn that I am sensitive/intolerant to dairy during the reintroduction phase! 

I also miss my morning glass of OJ with my breakfast.
But none of it is unbearable by any means! Keep going! Stay strong!

I'm on day 16 and going strong! I really miss tortilla chips. Chips and salsa where my go to comfort food.

Keep going! Stay strong!
