Day 9 is over… And for the first time today (though still sick) I had some energy. I got up and did about 25 minutes of yoga this morning! Which is more activity (other than walking to and from work) than I’ve had since I stated. That was good enough for me. Looking forward to seeing how I feel tomorrow.
Day 6 I woke up from a weird ass dream with an intense head cold, a headache (that I must admit did pass after a few glasses of water) and some crazy diarrhea. TMI? I don’t care. I feel like shit and I’m super glad tomorrow is my day off. It’s interesting though because when we did the half Whole30 (around 2 weeks), I got sick around day 6/7 as well. Maybe it’s my body processing? I don’t know. But what I DO know, is this sucks and that I’m posting this from the toilet. ;)
Well, today was a fun one. My girlfriend was on a rage of mass proportions. I blame it on cravings. She wanted a cookie so bad last night that she threw a fit. And this morning was really hard for her so I did my best to soothe her sugar dragon with a kick ass dinner. We had steaks, potatoes and some broccoli. Yum! She is a lot happier now with a full tummy. Day 4 was a happy success! Bring on the other 26 days!
Well last night I ended my day 3 with ALL the cravings. And I gave in to every single one of them with Whole30 approved foods. I know, I know… I’m supposed to be making a new relationship with foods by not giving in to stuff like that but, this is a learning process. But I’m proud of myself for not eating the cookies in the office yesterday… they had jelly filled ones, chocolate dipped ones…. oh god, okay moving on! Last night I made kale chips and some warm fruit after dinner. Next time, I’m gonna drink some water and wait… See if I can get the sugar dragon of cravings to go away the old fashion way. We will see!!! Waking up to Day 4 and I’m tired and I have a headache… I feel slightly hungover but I didn’t drink. I’m cranky AF and don’t want to get out of bed…. Day 4 will be fun, I can already tell.
So, my girlfriend and I successfully completed about two weeks of the Whole30! As we previously planned, we ended early, hopping off for the holidays with her family. :) we are now back on for the new year and completing the whole THIRTY DAYS! Whoa! Look out. ;)
We are currently and successfully ending day two. For breakfast we had boats (sweet potato with spices baked and topped with avocado and an egg -two eggs in my girlfriends case-). Lunch we had left overs from day one, really yummy crockpot thyme chicken with a salad! And for dinner we had a crockpot rotisserie chicken, potatoes and asparagus! It was SUPER GOOD, cheap and filling. For desert I had some frozen mango and other fruits warmed in the pot on the stove. This is my favorite desert…
Today was pretty easy because I found out my two bosses also started the Whole30 this month! So that’s super fun. My hardest challenge for the day was that I REALLY wanted snacks. Chips, salsa, candy, you name it. I didn’t have many cravings the first time we did this, but this time around I definitely do. Though no headache! Day 2-5/6 last time I had a pretty bad headache. I’m happy for that.
DAY 2 SUCCESS!
These are my awesome weight loss jars!! They are really easy and cheap to make. You put the number of stones, rocks or what have you per pounds you want to lose into one jar… And move them into the other as you lose those pounds! I got to move 7 little stones today and it felt amazing!

It takes time. Time can be fast. Time can be slow. Time can stop and start, over and over. But the important thing is that you keep trying and recognise it takes time.
