Nigel Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I completed my whole 30 last Wednesday 18th Nov and whilst I have definitely toned up & haven’t had a sore mouth/mouth ulcers for the 30 days (main purpose of whole30 for me was to reset & boost immune system as I was getting lots of mouth ulcers, sinus infections, dry itchy eyes & generally feeling tired) I unfortunately didn’t get that tiger blood, loads of energy feeling. I still have the blocked sinuses & my bletharitis seems to be as bad as it was before whole 30. I feel a little down as I followed whole30 to the letter & didn’t feel the wow I’ve got loads of energy moments from day 20 onwards. i struggled to get the right amount of calories & fats into my body during the whole 30 & constantly felt hungry. Now I am post whole 30 I really want to maintain most of the whole 30 principles but I really need to increase my calorie count. I’m a 45yr old man, 180cm and around 72kg. I’m very active, cycle 3 times a week and walk at the weekends with my wife & children. my average food day looks something like this:- breakfast - 3 eggs with left over potato or sweet potato & veg (Brussels sprouts, broccoli or kale) lunch - roasted sweet potato, tuna with home made mayo & steamed veg. Apple, avocado with carrot sticks dinner - fish, pork or chicken with butternut squash & roast veg any help or advice would be much appreciated. Many thanks Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyBecky Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 One thing I notice as I look at your sample menu is you only have a fat in your lunch, but no fat with breakfast or dinner. The fat is what keeps you feeling full and satisfied. Perhaps add some olives or nuts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
