kdiddy Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I'm not entirely sure this is the correct forum for this post - if it belongs somewhere else please direct me! I am on Day 29 of my first Whole 30. After an accidental slip up with a chicken brined in sugar and carrageenan a few weeks ago, I have decided to extend my Whole 30 to a Whole 60. I have definitely been noticing and celebrating lots of NSV, including some slight changes in my body composition. I know Whole 30 is not about weight loss, and I do not look at it that way, but the reality is I really need to lose some weight. I felt some pounds shedding off in the second or third week, but since then have felt very stagnant in my weight and overall size/measurements/body composition - I haven't weighed or measured myself, this is just based on how I feel in my body/clothing. So, long story short I have decided I need to get back to a regular exercise routine - it's been a few years. For the last two weeks I have been very diligent about completing a physical therapy stretching/core strength building routine (I have a herniated disc in my back that had a flare up a few weeks ago) and while this as greatly improved my back (I'm feeling about 95% better!), it is not enough. So, I rejoined the gym and am committing to starting a new routine tomorrow. My question is... what are your suggestions/experiences with working out for weight loss? I'm not new to the gym, but I have not had the most healthy relationship with exercise/weight loss/food in the past. The Whole 30 has helped me make great improvements in my relationship with food, but now I think I am ready to rethink and reapproach regular exercise. I know through experience and research that strength training and interval workouts are great for weight loss, but I am looking for more specific tips/resources/routines/exercises/etc to help me get started. Any advice would be greatly appreciated - thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted August 30, 2016 Administrators Share Posted August 30, 2016 While lots of our members have experience with different exercise regimens, the Whole30 forum isn't the place to discuss exercise and weight loss recommendations. The Whole30 team hosts this space for Whole30 related discussions. Congrats on your decision to extend your Whole30, you'll be in fine company over September!
