I felt REALLY REALLY good for several weeks after - but then the kids' Halloween candy started my downfall. @heb2014 I thought that whole30 was supposed to eliminate cravings. I was excited to start whole30, but after hearing about all these post-whole30 experiences, am having second thoughts. Thanks. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is in the title of the program and the top of the home page of the Whole30 web site says "Change your life in 30 days with the Whole30". The rules says " just give us 30 short days".

Administrators ladyshanny Posted January 2, 2020 Administrators Share Posted January 2, 2020 You bet - you can definitely make changes in those 30 days. We are sure that you understand where we're going with this one and that we aren't purporting to completely change a person's life from front to back in 30 days.

The Whole30 web site says "Change your life in 30 days with the Whole30". See above. Thanks. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or no change whatsoever. Do the experiment and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure where you got that. It does say eliminate cravings and lose weight, which are the main reasons I want to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said I was. Just want a simple program I can stick to to see the benefits below. The short rules seem simple, but not all the "recommendations".

heb2014 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 @Jim Baunach - Are you trying the Whole30? I see that you've been a member of this forum since December 27th - you could already be on Day 8. The only way to really know what the program will be like for you is to try it.

Jim Baunach Posted January 6, 2020 Author Share Posted January 6, 2020 @heb2014 Hi heb2014, I started my Whole30 on January 3. I went to this forum before I started my Whole30 in preparation as part of doing my initial research because I was curious about the program and thought the forum could help with some questions I had. Thanks. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
