Jfoxfurie Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I’ve done a similar program before but i have fallen back into bad habits. I know from past experience that i am SO happy when i eat right. I stop being a slave to food. So excited to finally commit to getting back to that place. But I know the first three or four days will be so hard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoseElizabeth Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I'm starting tomorrow, too! So excited and I know it will be hard but right now thinking about the positives is such good motivation. Good luck on day 1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliS Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I am starting as well! My original start date was going to be Feb. 15th, but I decided to bump it up quite a bit. I do have a girl's night that I am hosting Saturday night & am a little nervous, but I have a week to come up with compliant finger foods. I mean, if my gluten-free friend can make all my parties & such and can't eat everything (and she doesn't drink)... why can't I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarinaCeballos Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Hi! I will also start tomorrow! I´m so excited and scared at the same time! I know that I need to do this for my health, but I hope I will keep the motivation alive throughout all 30 long days! Good luck to you Jfoxfurie!!

BookNut107 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I could have written that post myself. I am also starting tomorrow. We can do this! Interested in being accountability buddies/support partners for when we're craving that late night sweet snack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikayaSmith Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I'm starting tomorrow too! Unfortunately, the Whole30 book is checked out of my library so its boiled eggs and raw veggies for me until I can get the book and figure out how to cook on this. I'm in a rural area where all the fancy ingredients aren't available.... what are you guys's plans for the first few days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseElizabeth Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I’m right there with you two! we got this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whole30Raven Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I'm beginning on January 29 (tomorrow!) as well. Excited and hope to see you all online. I haven't done the Whole30 before although two friends have and were very positive about it. I almost decided to wait until after Feb 17 because my nephew is getting married and I'm worried about the wedding. After deliberating, I decided to do the prep and jump in. Writing out plans for how to deal with wedding and travel mid course... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealtorJen Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I'm also starting tomorrow. This is my second round of Whole30. I loved being on it the first time & had great results. I'm excited to get back on track again! Good luck, everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseElizabeth Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Awesome that so many of us are here and starting today! Shall we check in at the end of the day? Good luck everyone !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NatalieMarshall Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I started today, as well! This is my first Whole30 and I'm all sorts of excited and hopeful for this program. I've meal planned the HECK out of this week and really feel prepared. I think my struggle will really be with cheese and wine. Cheese is my go to comfort food and wine is my little "me-time" ritual. Eek! Bye, cheese! Bye, wine! Good luck everyone! Not that you'll need it. We are all capable of this process and driven by such a positive and FREEING end goal. Food Freedom, y'all! Cheers!

Hey - You can print the ingredient/ shopping lists and yes/no lists from the website! No need for the raw veg/ boiled egg diet, this can be a whole (no pun intended) more enjoyable Squashes, potatoes, leafy greens, simple proteins (poultry, beef) are available pretty much everywhere, and you can make your own ghee out of unsweetened butter. You got this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaroHarNord Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Hi All, I'm on Day 3, but can't find anyone with same start date! Good luck all. I did tons of meal prep over the weekend and am already sick of protein. But we got this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2018 New beginnings Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I started today, January 29...my sons 30th Birthday...it’s time to feel healthy and good again☺️ Made a great dinner from the whole 30 cookbook...feel like I’m off to a good start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SingerM Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I started yesterday, too. Nice to meet you all! Have a massive headache today, probably from dropping my lifetime Diet Coke habit, but I'm super happy with the food I've eaten so far. Let's keep an eye on each other, shall we?

BookNut107 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Hey guys! Day 1 was a success and I felt great. However, today is Day 2 for me and I woke up feeling like crap! I've had horrible brain fog all day and overall I just feel dead. I ate great food all day yesterday and made a point to get to bed extra early and I still feel like crap. I'm wondering if anyone else feels this way or if maybe I caught a bug from my coworkers who were all just sick. It does say that days 2-3 can feel like this but I eat pretty close to Whole30 as it is so I wasn't expecting to feel this bad. I did binge on some not so Whole30 stuff this weekend (late night munchies strike again) so I'm wondering if that's what made me feel so tanked right now. Anyone having any similar experiences? Let me know, I'd love to try to pinpoint if this is the Whole30 progression or a sick bug! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SingerM Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I'm miserable today as well. Migraine, nausea, brain fog. But I was not eating well before yesterday so it's expected. I'm happy with the food I've eaten so I'm going to hang in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40reasons Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Hi all Monday was my first day too!! I had already cut back on the wine and diet coke so it hasn't been such a shock! Lattes and artificial sweeteners are my biggest challenges. Good luck all!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witchy13 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Hi! I started today! I have never done a whole 30. I’ve been Paleo-ish for the last couple years. I feel like I need a reset so here I am :-) day one went great! I’d say wine at night with dinner will be what I will miss most! Hope everyone had a good day :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whole30Raven Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Hi Jan 29 Friends, I disappeared for the first two days ... just keeping up with food and life was pretty challenging. But I've stayed on track. The hardest time for me has been the evenings. I find I'm just exhausted. I'm having some physical withdrawal my beloved sugar; it's really up and down. Hope everyone has an amazing Day 3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hope is that you are only having typical days 2-3 withdrawals, but I don't think you'll know right away. Lots of cold bugs going around! Hope you're feeling better soon!

jblittle Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I started Monday as well...and so did my monthly, so I slept 10 hours last night and the night before. That’s never happened to me, as I normally sleep 7 hours and am ready for the day. I don’t think I ate enough food the last two days though, according to other forums, so I’ll be upping my protein intake today. I think I’ll miss peanut butter the most over the next 30 days—I know I’m doing myself a favor leaving out other cravings, but peanut butter and a banana/apple are a favorite late night snack around here.
