i'm doing an on going whole life challenge which is essentially the whole30 + 7 hours of sleep + daily stretching + water drinking + supplement taking...I'd love to suppport you since my challenge ends about when yours does!

17th Day!!

16th day...and loving it!!

Hi There, I'm on day 12 too if you want to add me you can. I agree, once you decide to do it, it is not as hard as I thought it would be. The hardest thing is really being vigilant about reading packages (not that you'll be eating food from many packages) and if you go out to eat really asking questions and advocating for your choices. resturants sneak dairy (butter) and sugar in to a LOT.

I just sent you a friend request, and I think I am going to join you on Sunday!

...and soybean oil ... that seems to be in a BUNCH of stuff!

Speaking of soybean oil,I had to buy a vitamin d supplement while I was waiting for mine to arrive and looked at the label and the d is in soybean oil!I was shocked..

Good luck! I'm on Day 18 of the Whole30, and I can definitely see a big difference. My husband and I were eating Primal before, but our version of Primal included way too much dairy, red wine, and chocolate. I needed a kick in the butt to jumpstart my healthy eating again. Feel free to add me if you'd like - I plan on continuing this, hopefully through April, although I might have to take a few days off when I travel over Spring Break.

I'd love to do the Whole30 challenge and I think I'm already doing it for the most part. Over the last two weeks I've systematically cut out grains and potatoes, dairy, caffeine, sugar (including most fruit, though I do eat berries), and artificial everything. I've had a few slip-ups or purposeful cheats (like Saturday when my bf made amazing gf mac and cheese). It's amazing to see how quickly my body responded to no dairy and grain. I have celiacs, so I knew wheat, rye, barley, and gluten were a no no, but even corn and rice bother me right now. And dairy just about cripples me. The night I ate that mac and cheese I promptly fell asleep (practically comatose) and woke up the next day feeling hungover. As much as I love cheese and pasta, it's just not worth it to feel that way.

So this all started because I've gained almost 15 lbs since Christmas just by eating "normally" and gf. I want to get back down to where I was before Christmas (abt 130lbs).

I do intend on adding back sweet potatoes and fruit other than fresh berries, but I feel like I need to go really hard core to break the sugar habit I have. It's been a week and I'm STILL having killer sugar cravings.

I'd love to link up with all of you!

My wife and I have been doing the whole30 for 20 days now. I am 6.2kgs or 14 pounds lighter, and have tonnes of energy and my sense of smell has increased.

I am looking forward to returning to Milk in coffee so I can resume having Latte's. But we plan going forward to do 100% Paleo 80% of the time...

We realised that just because we are doing Paleo doesn't mean things have to be boring, most home made currys, esprecially Thai ones, are only spices meat, veggies and coconut milk/cream. All 100% Whole30 approved stuff. And yum! You just do them more Stew/soup like, or with Cauliflower Rice. I could eat that type of meal, or Lamb roasts all the time...

Day 24 of Whole30!

My diary is open in case it helps to see some food ideas.
There was a tough couple days around the 2 week mark, but since then I've felt absolutely fantastic.
