JodieRattlesnake Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Hello! Thank you to everyone who posted about embarking on their 30 days! I am starting tomorrow May 13th, and am nervous but excited. I expect this upcoming month to be challenging, but doable. Over the last year I gained a lot of weight after a surgery. My body feels out of whack. I look forward to being better regulated after some cleaner eating. I consider myself a very blessed person, and love my life, but at just 35 years old I’ve buried both my parents, and the man I thought was my soulmate after 9 years together. If I can get through that, I can handle this! The tough love in the Whole30 book convinced me, and provided a lot of really great perspective. Here we go!

SchrodingersCat Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Good luck! I'm 1 day ahead of you on Round 2. Had amazing results on Round 1 (from 15 January) and felt SO good, then botched reintro (waited too long to try too many things, then hit them all at once) and feel terrible again, so round 2 it is!!

JodieRattlesnake Posted May 13, 2019 Author Share Posted May 13, 2019 It’s so impressive that you did it once! Now you know all the do’s and don’ts and know firsthand what to expect! The reintro does seem tricky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchrodingersCat Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I found the reintro a lot harder than the W30, to be honest. By the time I got to reintro, I was so happy and feeling so healthy and good, I didn't want to risk that so I kept putting it off. Then Easter came upon us, and an overseas trip, and now I'm at square 1 (aside from maintaining my weight loss). I feel like I did have an advantage over many in the fact that I started this because of debilitating migraines with vertigo, which were genuinely ruining my life. W30, by week 2 - they were gone. I hadn't felt that good in years. Made it easy to stick with it, well beyond the 30 days, until my routine got disturbed and I lost control of many of my meals (mom came to visit for Easter, then I went to Bali and ate all the delicious foods that I don't even know the recipes for). So I'm thinking Round 2 will be not too tough, as long as I get back to feeling good soon. And I've learned my lesson, this time I will do a proper reintro and learn ALL I can.
