Day 8

Just wanted to know how everyone is feeling on Day 8! The past week for me has been great. I've been lively, energetic, motivated, and untempted by any non-compliant foods. This afternoon I began having intense cravings for sugar, pasta, and wine! I think I'm even being crabby towards my boyfriend. (He's not doing Whole30 and we live in the same house.) Anyone having these issues? I just need a little support from someone!

Uh, yeah. My daughter made c**kies today and I so wanted to take a bite of the dough! It's Friday night and I've got nothing but housework ahead of me (wa-freaking-hoo). A glass of wine would make it go so much easier! And tomorrow night is a party and I just realized I probably won't be able to eat any of the food there, and again, no alcohol. I'll be the life of the party! HA! Anyway, I'm combatting all this loveliness with a new recipe (http://meljoulwan.com/2010/02/16/dinner-and-a-movie™-meatza-pie-and-the-vancouver-olympics/) for the weekend in an effort to spice things up.
I think that I read on the Whole 30 timeline that people are most likely to quit on Day 8 or something, so I think that it's pretty typical! Stay strong!!0 -
Things are going ok for me. I've had a pretty busy week which has been a bit tough when I've got home from work I've really not felt like cooking, but I'm powering through. I am struggling a bit with having no energy at all - I thought I would be feeling much more energetic, but mostly I just want to sleep! At least its the weekend now.
One thing I've noticed that has improved is my skin, its looking really clear right now which is a miracle for me! So I'll take the small things.
I know what you mean about cravings. I really wanted to have a glass of wine tonight, but I'm going to try and just distract myself - probably by going to bed cause I'm so tired lol! My husband isn't really sticking to it either and I do find that hard because you feel like you're alone, so I just wanted to say, you're not. We're doing the same as you and we're here to support you. On the bright side, there is only 22 days to go now!
Hope everyone else is doing well?
