I've just arrived in FL from New England and it's a lot warmer! Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniem Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 Yesterday I drank more water. Have to get a water filter. The water here is yuck! I also had a couple of small snacks, since it's hard for me to eat more. ( post lap band 5 yrs). I also took 2 naps! I was human...at least in my mind. Th most amazing thing is my clear mind and sharp thinking! Dishwater aerobics, strength & balance training and a little yoga, too!

anniem Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Good morning world! It's day 7!! I feel great!! I am finally ready to write goals. I have been so focused on food that I couldn't do much else.Will post when done. It's still hard living with others who snack constantly and eat everything- I either feel self righteous or PO'd too often! I love being a 2 month snow bird. I can be outside, walk, do water aerobics outside, have less arthritis pain... I have stopped drinking water with meals! I have cut my Prilosec in half. I am taking no NSAIDs or muscle relaxers. I am sleeping 8-10 hours and taking short naps only! Day 6 eating Sweet potato, banana, Walnut & egg scramble with coconut oil Half caf with coconut milk Water, water, water Tuna Waldorf salad Water, water Coconut water 1/2 apple Salad with olives & tomatoes Roast pork Broccoli Cantaloupe Decaf Water, coconut water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniem Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Goals 1. I will ensure there is adequate protein, fat and veggies at every meal. 2. I will strive to get 8-10 hrs of sleep every night. I will take short naps when stressed, angry, tired or foggy. 3. I will walk every day. I will exercise at least 3 hours per week. I will add aerobic exercise at least 2 x week. 4. I will work to decrease a I'd reducer to 0 by day 21. I will strive to use no NSAIDs, muscle relaxers, or tramadol. Instead I will exercise, nap, meditate or use hot tub. I will use DGL and kombucha. 5. I will focus on feeling good, being positive rather than on my starting weight, 234. 6. I will read books on nutrition and books for fun so I don't get to obsessive about whole30. I will normalize this experience so it becomes routine. 7. I will post meals and comments daily on Whole30. I will read and comment on at least one other so this is not all about me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1Maryann Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 "Liar bar!" ROFL! Auto-correct drives me crazy! Sounds like you've got your head on straight and a great attitude about this. I only wish I could get 10 hours sleep! I'd settle for 8! All this water drinking has my bladder working overtime. Too many middle of the night bathroom trips.

anniem Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 Day 14 What can I say! I'm lovin' Whole30. I feel good. NO-- GREAT!! I had to buy a belt to hold my shorts up. I'm on 2 months vacay & don't want to buy more...and this is 2 weeks? Missing the scale...been on " diets" since age 13-- geez almost 50 years-- and where has it gotten me? Nowhere! Just a quick trip to Guilt City. I also BOUGHT A BIKE at a tag sale yesterday, had it tuned up and rode it home ( only a few blocks). I haven't been on a bike, other than the gym,(and that one isn't wibble wobble) in maybe 30+ years. It was, well, like riding a bike! You don't forget, but my balance isn't perfect. Between my replacement knees and unlimber hips, getting on and off is hard and funny to watch. I have to lay the bike down to get off. My hips don't swivel like they used to! But the bike is the perfect size. Suggestions on limbering up hips to swing that pesky leg over? I'm dancing every week, exercising in the pool, walking . Perhaps it's time to meet the gym! I forgot to mention my skin-- getting more supple, not dry, and no moisturizer on my face! Yes, I'm in 80 degree weather, but that used to not matter!!! Day 13 food Bacon Sweet potato, 1/2 banana, few pecans "home fries" Scrambled egg Half caf Water, water Salad.....first MEAL out to dinner. They were accommodating. Even had roasted spaghetti squash on the menu!, Steak Grilled Zucchini Water, coconut water Bacon burger Grilled onions Tomatoes Apple slices with coconut & couple of almonds Water, water, water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got up had breakfast, pickled beets, made country spareribs in the crock pot, did 2 loads of laundry, went to the dog park & flea market. Bought a glass bowl for making sauerkraut. Wish I had my grandmother's crock, wood press & old set up for sauerkraut! In this vacation home the knives are iffy, there's no shredder or food processor. Guess I'll try the Vitamx. I like it really thin!

Brain is still clear, belt's tightened another notch! I can take my shorts off without unbuttoning them! Woo hoo!
