JoyfullyCheryl Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I've been talking about the Whole30 since a doctor's appointment in October. I knew it wouldn't be wise to do it during the holidays, so I planned and recruited, AND ATE my way through Thanksgiving to Christmas. I ate bread and cookies and pumpkin pie. And cookies. And pizza. Did I mention cookies? Then I read a post about not going crazy before the challenge. It's not that I didn't already know that. I don't usually eat much sugar and I guess I wanted to get some in before I stopped. On New Year's Eve, the Hubster and I went out for sushi. We don't do that very often, but got gift cards for Christmas and I knew I wouldn't be able to do that in January. I ate a LOT of sushi. When we woke up Sunday morning, I had a pounding headache and severe congestion. I only had one glass of wine, so it wasn't that. I think I may have a problem with soy! I'm really anxious to find out if that's the case at the end of the challenge. So, now I'm on day 2 and wondering when the bread/chips/cookie craving is going to set in. Anyone else prepare for W30 with a "last hurrah?" Cheryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emma Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Oh my gosh - I had a six month hurrah! It didn't start off so bad, but got worse and worse and the more and more I knew I needed to get my act together, the more I hurrahed. December was a bad month with lots of cookie baking and lots of cookie eating. I had an ugly headache on my first day (this past Monday) and I'm pretty sure it was my system rebelling. However, I was eating so poorly that I think my body is thrilled to switch over to the good stuff so I haven't been feeling too terribly. How are things going for you?

Jager07 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Six months, Emma! Mine felt like the last meal before an execution.....eat all the stuff I never eat and eat LOTS of it! It's going great so far! I started my first W30 in May of last year (right after the hurrah! meal) and have never felt better! This round, I've off-roaded a bit, ridden my own bike and am tightening up again. Still calling it Round 2 because I never strayed very far. Keep rockin' it!
