    I'm starting my 2nd Whole30 today. Add me if you'd like to! We can support each other.

    Caveat: I do weigh myself daily which is against the rules.
    It truly motivates me to keep going and going. :smiley:

    I thought the point of Whole 30 was to recognize food sensitivities, not for weight loss? Either way, anything that makes you feel like this is not for me:

    can't people learn to be positive towards others' fitness journey, even if it's not their cup of tea?

    I'm on day 9 of Whole 30 and survived a trip to Vegas and was Whole30 compliant the whole time. Fortunately I had some great friends who were also eating healthy so we held each other accountable.

    What I have been doing is logging a diary entry into a journal to see how I am feeling, it allows me to look back at items that trigger my inflammation and gastroparesis. What I have been noticing in these 9 days is that my patience with people have drastically shortened, so I excuse my self and take short walks often. Also, the taste of fruit is inexplicably sweet to me. I have bad allergies, and my congestion is a lot better, to the point that when someone is drinking a diet soda next to me I can smell the artificiality of it to the point it is noxious.

    What also helps me stay on track is posting a motivational quote each day and recapping my day. It helps me practice gratefulness as well.

    Is anyone out there still doing this? I have been easing towards it for a week and will start full throttle tomorrow. I read It starts withFood last year and did it for 30 days. Now I am getting the other book called The Whole 30. Any differences? Suggestions? I have an addiction to popcorn!

    I'm just beginning Whole 30. I'm also eliminating nightshades & egg whites to follow the chronic pain plan for migraine.

    My wife, daughter and I finished a Whole 30 on Sept 20.
    We started because my daughter was always bloated and headache-y. It's been remarkable. We learned that dairy and wheat are verboten for our daughter. We all lost weight, as a bonus. I haven't had a drink in 65 days, which is probably the longest stretch since high school,
