KristenNash Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Hey Everyone! Even though this is day 1 for me, I'm no newbie to whole, fresh foods in my diet. Since getting off birth control a year ago, my acne took a turn for the worst. I started a Paleo-ish style diet in July but still incorporated those fun "treats" made out of approved ingredients. So here I am today, no more white rice and potatoes, no sweet-n-low in my coffee, no more 70% chocolate at night, and no more baked TREATS! Best part is I'm 7 weeks pregnant and I don't have to worry about alcohol temptations!!! LOL! Fingers crossed this fixes the crazy acne I've come across!! If anyone who has had acne and fixed it with their diet has any advice I'd appreciate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators ShannonM816 Posted October 10, 2016 Moderators Share Posted October 10, 2016 Hi, @KristenNash -- potatoes are actually fine to have on Whole30, although originally they were not. You can read more about that change here: http://whole30.com/2014/07/new-whole30/ Obviously if you prefer to leave them out, that's fine as well, I just wanted to be sure you were aware of that change. Also, don't freak out if your acne gets a bit worse before it gets better -- skin issues sometimes do. It can take a couple of weeks or more to start seeing improvements.

KristenNash Posted October 10, 2016 Author Share Posted October 10, 2016 Thanks @ShannonM816! I didn't know potatoes were OK! I just thought SWEET potatoes were allowed. Thank you for the heads up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
