hmg1993 Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Trying a second whole 30 to try and tame the sugar and emotional eating habits. Let me know if you're planning on the same date. Strength in numbers!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoMoreCrunchyCravings Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I'm already on my second day of my second whole 30, but I love your title, and I'm trying to do the same thing with another round of 30 compliant days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaseyD Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I'm in. I plan on going all the way through the August Whole30 they usually do and hitting the 60 days mark. I got some distressing, unexpected news at a recent doctor visit and even though I immediately went back to eating clean paleo, I still eat paleo treats and keep that sugar dragon alive as a result. So it feels like I'm hanging on by a thread all the time. I definitely need a reset and I think I have to go longer than a month for me to really get to that feeling of food freedom. The only other time I hit that feeling was after doing almost 60 days of a Whole30 before I got pregnant with my second kid, almost 4 years ago now! Yeah, time to get back on track...

Similar for me in that I did a Whole40 with lent and felt better than ever but then too much dried fruit and other treats started to creep in and before you know it I was back to white food and feeling awful. I too would like to make it through August, Good luck to you Casey!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and I are DEFINITELY not the only ones who need a few rounds to get the sugar dragons, SWYPO, foods without breaks, going way off the rails eating under control. It's one of the reasons I love these message boards-- to hear that I'm not alone, and to gain some insights from other people's experiences through their posts.

I like coming on here for that reason as well. It is nice to know that the struggle is real and not let myself get caught up in thinking there is something faulty about me for having to work so hard to make this stick long term. I'm just so thankful this program and forum exists! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szqnva Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 I'm also starting today! I thought it was fitting to start on Independence Day! Freedom from food addictions. This is my first time, but I'm feeling positive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marthab Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Day one is almost done and I survived the holiday! I used a product call nutbags in my morning tea and volunteered to make omelettes for the house this morning which was well recieved since my husband usually makes breakfast. Later we barbequed a steak and I added tomatoes and grilled asparagus. Tonights dinner will be more of a snack of leftover steak and some almonds with a cup of tea. I fell pretty good that I got through the day ahead of the sugar dragon. that has been my big issue. But today I won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmg1993 Posted July 5, 2016 Author Share Posted July 5, 2016 Hey hmg1993 how did you get on today? Good thank you! Planned everything carefully. 4th of July cookout meal was grilled burger, homemade potato salad with homemade mayo and slaw with cilantro lime dressing. Good and filling!

Jsmaloney Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Bummer. I was doing so well today. Fought through major soda cravings but then I mindlessly ate some peanuts while visiting my mother... Back to square 1 tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaBoswell Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 I started my first W30 yesterday too! I had an awful caffeine withdrawal migraine ALL day. Today is much better. Is anyone else just plain hungry? Egads I'm starving. Water consumption yesterday was right at 100 oz. So glad I found this group! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try eating more fat and protein as these fill you up. You don't have to suffer. Have you looked at the portion guidelines in the book? there is a lot of guidance in the whole30 book and in the forums. good luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
