CindyL Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 HI, I started the whole 30 in June and finished up 2 days before a week long family reunion/vacation. I didn't weigh before , during or after but I have gone down a size which is a thrill. I love that my sleeves are looser and all my shirts are loser around the middle. I am staying off the scale as it either makes me less vigilant if I have lost weight, or depresses me if I haven't lost weight. I discovered IBS along the way as I increased my fruits and vegetables. I learned about FODMAP and reducing certain foods helped quite a bit. I took the occasion of my vacation to dip my foot in testing some food items. My findings were Red Wine does not bother me a bit (Yay!) , I didn't react well to Brie cheese and/or Mozzarella and I'm definitely staying gluten free. I also sampled gluten free vodka and I did not feel well so staying away from that. Currently I am following the Whole30 rules with the exception of the occasional glass of red wine. I still have quite a bit of pain in my joints(head to toe) and my psoriasis is still active but I have more good days than bad. I am hoping that if I stay on this on a somewhat permanent basis I will reduce the inflammation which has been building for decades. I don't think I can expect it to go away in 30 days :-) All in all, I feel great about what I have learned. Now I am working on my husband to get on the bandwagon. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
