I definitely know what you are going through. For me I had an intense headache that lasted for days each time. I also remember having a lack of energy. The headaches were so bad I took motrin even though I tried to do the whole30 without meds. I would definitely recommend exercise to help raise your spirits, and dont be skimping on calories... I take a spoonful of almond butter or I make homemade ranch dressing and use that for a dip with veggies... it is REALLY easy not to get enough calories if you are eating mostly just veggies, fruit, and meat/eggs. Gotta add the fat/oil/avocado,etc.

And the bloat? Just you wait, if you are following exactly the foods in the whole30 program, I think you should lose any bloat within a week or so (unless you have an issue or allergy maybe with a food in the program).

I am always super excited when I see I have lost 5-7 pounds in the first week just because my bloat goes away and I am seeing loss of water weight (I think that is how it works??) It is a great confidence booster and awesome kickstart to all the weight loss you will see on the whole30. I know weightloss isnt the primary goal of the program, but that is one item on my list to work on...

I had some blueberries tonight. I didnt actually have any almond butter today. Feeling like I should have eaten more fat today. Always tomortow!
