anamchara1317 Posted April 3, 2019 Author Share Posted April 3, 2019 Day Two (4-2-19) Breakfast: 2 poached eggs with cholula hot sauce Lunch: smoked salmon over salad (leftover salad from last night - spinach, romaine, avocado, green onions, celery. carrots) with chimichurra sauce dressing Dinner: local, grass-fed (antibiotic/hormone free) ground beef, 1 baked sweet potato, 1 small avocado with Cholula hot sauce and Moraccan dipping sauce from cookbook Well-Fed: Paleo Recipes for People Who Love To Eat by Melissa Joulwan (same as above) Also, I haven't really experienced The Hangover stage, but I was still quite hungry between meals. I don't remember having many of the stages symptoms the last time I did Whole 30 (4 years ago to the month) either. I wonder if this time will be different. I am craving snack foods and sugar, and I definitely wanted wine with dinner and while cooking, especially. We'll see where it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anamchara1317 Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 Day Three (4-3-19) SOOOO tired today. Not sure if Whole30 related or just trouble sleeping but time will tell. Breakfast: egg frittata with veggies and leftover ground beef, black coffee Lunch: Ground beef with Moraccan dipping sauce; 3 olives and 1 pickle Dinner: Ginger shrimp with Zucchini noodle stir-fry (from The Whole30 Fast and Easy Cookbook) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anamchara1317 Posted April 9, 2019 Author Share Posted April 9, 2019 Skipping ahead, because I forgot, but I have stayed compliant (even as angry as I've gotten/been over the weekend about wanting foods I can't have)... Day 8 (Monday 4-8-19) Breakfast: 2 poached eggs; coffee Lunch: smoked salmon, olives, pickles, one large spoonful of almond butter Dinner: locally and sustainably raised beef pot roast (made in instant pot); sweet potatoes, carrots and broth. ** I feel like I have slightly turned a corner. I still crave mostly sweets, but I wasn't angry today, I didn't snack and I didn't feel a need to drink wine when others at the table were (and I love wine).

anamchara1317 Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 Day 9 (Tuesday 4-9-19) Breakfast: 2 turkey Chomps meat sticks; coffee Lunch: 2 fried eggs, small sweet potato with moroccan dipping sauce; 1/4 English cucumber Dinner: Shakshouka with added homemade oven-roasted tomatoes I struggled more today than yesterday. I got despondent and bored and didn't want to cook. I am enjoying the whole foods, but the restriction on bread (especially) and wine was just harder to push through than it had been. I also have been questioning why I am even doing this. Why the entire 30 days, when I've done it before? Why am I doing it when no one else around me is? (although my fiance does happily eat whatever I may and he does encourage me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
