mum-bum Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Not sure how wise it is to do a whole30 w/ an already grumpy teenager but here goes nothing. My DS is 15 and is the one who really wanted to do a whole 30 after hearing me talk about it. He's read the book and is really committed. I'm doing this with him. If we can make it past the Kill All The Things phase it could be a good bonding experience. Day 1: Breakfast: 2 scotch eggs (homemade compliant) w/ kale salad Lunch: Salad w/ chicken, olive oil and vinegar Dinner: roasted chicken thighs, steamed broccoli w/ ghee and potatoes pan crisped in ghee Standard day 1 feeling. made it through the day and feeling pretty good.

GoJo09 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Make sure you get him to write down his reasons for doing it, so that he has something to refer to when he wants to pack it in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKoala Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I think it's great that he wants to do this! I can't get my kids to show any interest in my nutritional projects (other than eat them from time to time). Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mum-bum Posted June 20, 2018 Author Share Posted June 20, 2018 Thanks for the feedback. Yesterday was rough. Life interfered w/ my plans for food. Teen ended up having eggs and salad or broccoli 3x yesterday. Not thrilled, but he's on plan so I'm not fighting it. Frankly I didn't have the energy to fight anything yesterday. Breakfast: scrambled eggs, bacon, salad Snack: lara bar (not preferred, but these got me through the first week on my last whole30) Late lunch: salad w/ chicken Dinner: lara bar and hard boiled egg - my tummy was very upset and it was a struggle to get any food down, but being overly hungry makes me feel sicker. Overall, not thrilled w/ my choices, but all food was 'OK' and I made it through the day and feel much better this morning. My son is feeling really sluggish. Which is right on schedule for day three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
