Meal 2     2 hard boiled eggs on sauerkraut w/Hawaiian sea salt (inspired by moderator Tom's daily breakfast)

Food:     I've done some prep this morning: roasted potato chunks, baked TJ's grilled cauliflower, boiled 6 eggs, put chicken with compliant pasta sauce in the slow cooker, thawing hamburger patties. I'm a pretty lazy Whole30-er - lots of microwaved sweet potatoes, pre-chopped salads, canned tuna fish, etc. 

Function:     I had really bad acid reflux last night due to my "last hurrah" pasta dinner, so today I'm eating smaller meals than usual. I know that I will need to eat an extra meal today to get enough protein in my tummy.

Meal 4     2 gf hamburger patties, potato chunks w/ketchup, 1/2 avocado, 1/2 red bell pepper, chopped salad w/EVOO & balsamic

Snack 1     Gingerberry Kombucha

Food:     Yay, I've made it through most of the day! I've been really hungry all day... getting used to eating large meals with lots of protein and veg.

Meal 2, ctd.     1/2 avocado (forgot to include it when I logged my lunch)

Snack 1            Gingerberry Kombucha

Meal 3              2 chicken thighs in spicy red pepper sauce, zucchini noodles in coconut oil, cauliflower w/ghee, watermelon chunks

Food:   So far everything is going good. I haven't been headache-y or anything. I think it really helps to start off eating enough food. And it's amazing how many more veggies I eat on the Whole30 than normally.

Function:   I forgot about one thing that happens on the Whole30... I'll be eating and just all of a sudden can't handle another bite. Today it happened with my tuna salad for lunch. I don't know if it's caused by increasing your fat intake or what, but it just feels like all of a sudden you're totally full.

Meal 1     egg salad (3 hb eggs, Tessamae's Chesapeake Mayo), banana, almond butter, coffee w/coconut milk

Meal 2     tuna fish, baby spinach, mushrooms, grape tomatoes, 1/2 avocado, lemon garlic dressing

Meal 3     turkey picadillo stuffed peppers, 2 (from a healthy takeaway place; compliant)

Food:     Well, my breakfast wasn't template, but I did get all my protein and fat in. This egg salad would be really good with something like celery sticks as dippers.

Snack 1     almonds

Snack 2     sweet potato w/ghee & pps, 1/2 Kombucha

Food:     The second snack was really more like Meal 3, Part 2. My dinner was from a healthy takeaway place, and it was yummy, but not enough food or enough fat. I did a big grocery shop before I started, and I feel like I'm almost out of food!

Function:     Got suuuuuuper tired halfway through the day. Will go to bed early tonight.

Snack 0    almond butter

Meal 1     2 chicken thighs in spicy red pepper sauce, zucchini noodles in coconut oil, cauliflower, coffee w/coconut milk

Meal 2       tuna fish, baby spinach, mushrooms, grape tomatoes, avocado, lemon garlic dressing

Food:     Aaaargggh! I woke up in the middle of the night and ate a packet of almond butter. I will take this as a learning opportunity, and next time I have something from the healthy takeaway place I will liberally drizzle it with olive oil and maybe add an extra veggie. I am having a very hungry first few days, but not happy that I had three servings of nuts/nut butter yesterday. Glad that today is a new day! :-)

Good luck to everyone else out there.

Snack 1     Epic Bison Bites, 1/2 honeycrisp apple

Meal 3     grilled salmon, field greens, avocado, red onion, jicama, grapefruit/orange slices, oil & vinegar

Snack 2     small serving of lamb gyro meat, baba ganoush, potatoes, 1/2 Kombucha

Food:   I did better today... didn't reach for nuts or almond butter... but I'm still eating main meals that are too small and supplementing with compliant snacks. (Actually the 1/2 apple was part of my lunch salad).

Food:     I enjoyed my food today! The chicken salad I threw together was really tasty, and I tried Argentinian Red Shrimp from Trader Joe's (which comes frozen) and it was just delicious.
