JFields Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Hi everyone! My name is Jennifer and I live in AL. Last year I had to take a year off from running due to an injury. While I tried to stay positive and watch what I was consuming by summer I put on 10 of the 40 lbs that I had worked so hard to take off the year prior through exercise and following the paleo diet. I knew it was a bad sign when I had to bring my "big" girl shirts back out. Now I'll take a moment to say I'm not "a fast runner" but I do "run" and I found this hobby 5 years ago. Never knew how much I loved it until last year when I was side-lined. Well December came and with it an additional 20 lbs. To say the least I was not happy. I felt sad, disappointed, run down. I knew changes had to happen and soon as I was experiencing acid reflux, fatigue, and depression. I had the Whole30 book on my wish list, along with a lot of other items. Thankfully, my husband told my mother in law about it and she bought it for me. I read it cover to cover and along with my husband we set January 3rd as our start date. We are in day 4 and it's going well. The only thing we seem to be struggling with is the lack of appetite sometimes. I guess we are staying fuller longer so we are a little off schedule on time of day that we eat. I love all of the food though...we have started with the 1 week menu in the book and it's been delicious food every meal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jfreaking Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Congrats! I'm right there with you. No appetite. I love real food so it's not too hard, but I'm looking forward to figuring out what foods are not friendly to my body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
