Mahoganylit Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Hello my name is Mahogany and I will be starting my Whole30 on July 1. I’m looking forward to kicking some bad habits. My cravings for salt and sugar. I would also like to improve my digestive health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cf410 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I am also starting on July 1! I have a lot of pain/inflammation and diet is the biggest thing I haven't made any changes to. Excited to see how this goes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happe2Liv Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 How are we all doing with our preparation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evethegreat Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I'm struggling a bit: I live in Kathmandu (Nepal) so it's a little bit tricky not being able to go to the store for compliant items, and you have to be really careful with produce. I'm planning on mostly going for chicken and eggs, with fresh veggies and fruit when available. Unfortunately, lots of the recipes on the website aren't possible here, so I'm trying to create or recreate them with local ingredients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtail_15 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I'm starting my 2nd Whole30 tomorrow- I did very well on my first round, but let stress get the best of me and fell off the wagon, hard. Hoping to kick my sugarbug tendencies and feel good again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesTodd Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I'm BA-ACK! July seems to be my favorite month to do Whole 30...this will be my third year and third time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitzymel Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I am starting a reset tomorrow. Always appreciate support along the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara1 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 So far so good! Coffee with nutpods, eggs, homemade sausage, zucchini and onions. Cooked everything in ghee, so didn't add any other fat, but I think i need more veg, so I'll probably have a salad with compliant ranch. Also just roasted some nuts for later!

evethegreat Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 How is everybody doing so far? I'm already having dreams about eating bbq, so that's....awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtail_15 Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Not too bad! A little foggy yesterday, and still getting used to the 3 meals/minimal snacking format- sometimes it means I'm eating when I'm not super hungry while I get used to the format again. It's a relief not to be logging meals/calorie counting and just listening to what my body needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahoganylit Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 Hello All. Well, I am just starting the Whole30. I wasn’t prepared to start on July 1st, but I did ensure to watch what I ate. So now that life has calmed down, I have started planning meals and will shop today. I think I was suffering from mental block. I didn’t want to go grocery shopping because I was scared I would pick up things I just did not need or shouldn’t be eating. Plus I had to get my 17 year old son on board so I would not have to cook two meals. Also so he wouldn’t be in shock. He needed to understand what our pantry would look like. LOL!!! So we've made a point to hold each other accountable. Let the Whole30 begin. Whew, this will be (hard) interesting but for the better of our health.

Last night I had a dream I had a gin and tonic while out with friends...it's like my subconscious is getting it in when it can. Also if anyone has any recipes to share that *don't* require any store bought, compliant versions of things, I would love them. I basically can't make the homemade mayo here (don't trust the raw eggs) and there's basically no sauces at the store that are Whole30 friendly. Right now I'm basically just at eggs + some vegetable for breakfast, fruit and whatever is leftover from dinner the previous night, and then for dinner I kinda just throw together something. It's fine for now but I see food boredom in my near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Jay Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Feeling pretty strong at the end of day three. Hit a bit of a wall yesterday, but very much enjoying large breakfasts. July 4th party was a minor challenge, but only had the briefest urge to reach for a beer. Keep it up y'all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evethegreat Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 How's everyone doing? I'm fully into the stage where I just want to sleep forever...I feel like I got hit by a truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitzymel Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Hanging on in there. I upped my sea salt intake a bit seems to help with all the adjusting symptoms, headaches etc. The only thing I eat out of packages/containers is some coconut flour/ dessicated/oil, sea salt and dried parsley. Rotate protein, veggies and fruit as best I can. Cant eat nightshades or nuts sadly - hashimotos and underactive thyroid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
