CatherineLisa Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Hi there! I just started and am trying to figure this out. Surprisingly, after failing over and over for the past year at giving up sugar, flour, and grains on the Paleo, I'm doing really well at the Whole30. Could someone explain the 30 concept? I plan to keep going after 30 days on this plan. However, i'm confused, because I see people posting that they've done it 3 or 4 times. Does that mean 3 or 4 months? Thank you!

Jim4884 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 The Whole 30 concept is to eliminate all of the potentially problematic foods (sugar, alcohol, grains, dairy and legumes) for 30 days, then re-introduce one at a time to personally understand the negative effects foods have on oneself. I've done two Whole 30's, which simply means, after the first, I followed the rules MOSTLY for a few months, then decided to do another to reset myself. Hope that helps...

CatherineLisa Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 Thanks Jim, that does help! I think I need to completely give up sugar, grains, beans, and flour, even after these 30 days. My body just doesn't seem to metabolize those foods well and I gain weight. If I go back on it, I'll just gain weight and have other symptoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
