TiMANimal Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Curious if anyone else has had this issue within the first week. According to all the reading materials I should hate life right about now on day 3 and I feel fine. The only issue I have is a little tired but I also get up at 4:30AM every day. Maybe I am eating incorrectly. I typically have: Breakfast: 4 eggs handful of chopped broccoli handful of fresh spinach enough wholly guacamole to cover my fat portion (about 1/2c) about 1/3c wholly salsa small handful of fresh blueberries Lunch: either 2 chicken legs or 2 palm size patties of ground beef or turkey large portion of fresh or frozen vegetables (all compliant) about 1/3 of a sweet potato 1 large handful green olives (early California green ripe) Pre-workout: 1 can sardines in olive oil Post workout: 1-2 palm size portions of ground patties (beef or turkey) Dinner: Typically is - 2-4oz salmon fillets, broiled with compliant seasonings & lemon Medium portion of fresh kale covered in 2 portions of olive oil, lemon and seasonings 1 small portion of kimchi or sauerkraut 1 small piece, nectarines so far I was wondering if this seems ok to anyone else and if so I guess I am just overanalyzing the horrible days to come that I am either blessed to miss or haven't hit yet.

Fenderbender Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Your meals look spot on... You know if you ate " clean " prior to W30, it won't be a huge adjustment for your body as far as " carb flu" etc.... I think a lot of people who start w30 were used to eating total garbage, and the detox is what gets them... As for me... My 1st w30 was a breeze and I felt great the whole time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiMANimal Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Ok, I thought that may have something to do with it but didn't want to seem like a know it all, I very much want to respect the process and learn from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristina Rowan Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Im on day 3 and so far feeling great !! Meat is becoming my new friend, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notacommittee Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Yeah, I never had a severe batch of detox symptoms either, because I was eating super clean Paleo to start with (had to cut out butter though...counting down the days until I can have it back). I counted it more as a benefit than anything else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jtandi Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I didn't seem to go through a huge detox phase either, and I went from HORRIBLE eating habits...I think some of us are just lucky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelliebuStacey Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 TiMANimal, I had a similar experience. What hit me hardest was being exhausted around days 13-16...but it does pass. Enjoy the process, and hopefully you'll feel simply amazing on day 31! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the start week three that hit me too...my legs felt like lead, so I just backed off a bit and then it was smooth sailing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
