cavemam Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 This is my commitment to start tomorrow, april 5th. I am hoping by next month, I will be enjoying the benefits of this way of eating/way of life. If anyone would be interested in being an accountability partner, please PM me. My reason for doing this is to live my life without food controlling me. I have a history of bulimia, but have stopped purging, so now really it is just binge eating disorder. I do struggle with body image issues, but I am trying to let go of those. I have not weighed myself in a long time, but I am constantly reminded of the weight I have gained every morning when I struggle to find something to wear that I can squeeze into. I hate to say that I am doing this to lose weight, but I would hope that would happen as well. Hope to meet some friends on here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Need2heal Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I have successfully completed 1 Whole 30 in Jan/feb and have failed at a restart twice since. I have marked today4/5 on my calendar to start again. I have a similar history, anorexia/bulimia years ago, but still struggle with body image and can relate to food controlling your life. I rested better. Had better workout recovery, and more positive attitude at the end of my last whole 30, so feel it was a success, but should have held on and done 45 or 60 days to completely kill my sugar urges. I welcome an accountability partner in this, and look yo this forum daily for support! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurelpardee Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Hi Cavemam, I am happy to be your Whole30 buddy--though I wasn't sure how to PM you. Today is actually my 4th day on my Whole30. It also happens to be my birthday which is creating all kinds of weird psychological gymnastics. I am not really all that tempted by cake and ice cream, but I am struggling to find something to make the day special to take the place of those symbols. Anyway, I hope your first day is going well.

Michelle13 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Hi Cavemam, Would love the support of a W30 Buddy! I started on April 4th, so I'm on Day 2. So far so good, but I'm reading the book as I go (I've been clean-eating for about 2 years and Paleo for 6 months). So a lot of new info. laurelpardee, you are brave! Happy Birthday! Mine was on the 3rd, thus my start date of the 4th. Stay strong and enjoy your day. Michelle13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
