Kaisi Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Starting tomorrow and glad I found this forum. I find that noting down how I’m doing really helps. I know it won’t be easy but I’m determined to do this so I can look and feel better in myself after feeling pretty unhealthy for a while now. I want to start 2018 as I mean to go on!

Moderators ShannonM816 Posted December 3, 2017 Moderators Share Posted December 3, 2017 Hi! You might want to take a look at the meal template -- https://whole30.com/downloads/whole30-meal-planning.pdf. Following it isn't a rule, but it is recommended to get the best possible results from your 30 days. When eggs are your only protein, have as many whole eggs as you can hold in one hand, which is generally 3-4 for most people. If your meals are big enough, you'll find you won't need to snack most of the time, because you'll stay satisfied for 4-5 hours between meals, but as you're figuring that out, if you are hungry between meals, it's best to try to eat a combo of protein, fat, and vegetables, or at least two of the three. Fruit on its own can cause blood sugar spikes and leave you tired and craving sweets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
