Lorelai91 Posted June 1, 2016 Author Share Posted June 1, 2016 I just woke up for Day 11. I wish I could say its all flying but I have had too many cravings the last couple of days to focus on anything else but food! Looking forward to that day 10/11 stage passing... they werent kidding when they said you will be ready to throw in the towel. I should have tallied how many times I have thought that in the last 2 days. So intersting how the time line is so on point. Anyways Im counting that as a success, I am still here and going strong! Yesterday I found a potato rostini recipe that I tried (it tasted nice, seasoning a little off and the potato was shredded too finely). I have hopes that I will have a vegetable to eat for meal 1 and also a recipe that I can tweak and add other protein too like a crab/salmon/chicken cake. I will be experimenting on the weekend! It is already Thursday this week and I am beginning to get a little under pressure as it is reporting time for us teachers (I teach primary/elementary). Busy time of year and one of my biggest snacking points. Have been able to steer clear so far but keeping my eyes peeled for any boredom/stress eating feelings. Hope everyone else is feeling good and on track. Hanging out for the Tiger blood moment!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolynK Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 I'm back! I fell again on Sunday and started back on Monday. I haven't been on the log since. (I have to admit it was a bit embarrassing to fall twice.) Good news is that I have been on track since with not one itty bitty cheat! It was neat to see you still on board when I came back to the log. You're a teacher! I was a special ed teacher for several years before deciding to leave. I tutor part-time. I'm a dyslexic specialist so I tutor children that have reading challenges. I have pared it down though, because I will be a full-time mom when we finally get a foster/adopt placement. The way it works here is that you need to get this in-depth home study done (all about my husband and me - unbelievably in-depth) and get licensed as foster parents. After that, we search with the agency for kids we are interested in. We are looking for two boys, or a boy and a girl. Back to Whole30 - Since I'm on Day 4 now, last night I had my first dream of food, and I remember ordering a vodka and tonic (which I don't even drink!) at some kind of catered event. It was the weirdest thing because when I got the drink, the bartender told me $44 please. I was like, "What?!!". She said it's expensive at the event, and since she thought I didn't want it at that price, she proceeded to take it away from me, and me thinking "bummer". I remember then wandering around, feeling some sense of guilt as I was checking out food. Then I woke up. That was a strange dream! My husband said I was talking in my sleep. So happy for you that you are getting through the cravings stage. I can feel it a little. I need to get a bit more creative about my breakfasts. I have been making eggs every morning. I'm not interested in the idea of making some kind of paleo bread, because it is like what the book says - it's just us humans trying to pretend we are eating carbs. So, I need to read up to find some alternatives. But for today... again... it's eggs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
