I'm in - this will be my third, and will appreciated having a support group of like-minded folks to tough base with!

Day 31 and the results are in. I confess I am a little disappointed not to have made it to my original goal weight (another 2.9 pounds would do it) but I did see a decent drop in weight and measurements. Looking better in new clothes that are a size or two smaller! Starting weight - 178 Post Whole 30 weight - 171.9 Bust -…

Final 2 days for me - and I am looking forward to weighing and measuring tomorrow to see the results. I can clearly see the difference in the fit of clothes but it will be nice to see the numbers! Still have not decided if I am going to extend beyond the 30 days but I will certainly be keeping wheat/grains and sugar out of…

I've had similar tummy issues for several days - seems to be resolving itself today though. I seem to be struggling a little more with sugar cravings this weeks as well. I think that is fairly typical for this stage of the game (Day 22 for me). I'm still thinking about extending beyond 30 days - I still have some post…

Am loving the recipes links that come in the daily Whole 30 newsletter. I am not an inventive cook, so need all the help I can get! Today I'm making the beef chili recipe - would never have thought of adding cocoa powder - but wow - does my kitchen ever smell wonderful. Glad I made enough for lots of leftovers!

I had a very vivid dream about eating HUGE amounts of buttered popcorn - woke up feeling so disappointed in myself until I realized it was only a dream! On day 19 today and planning ahead for the week's meal. Going to try making mayo again today - last attempt was a disaster so keeping my fingers crossed that I get it…

I am 5 weeks into my recovery from an abdominoplasty. "Tummy Tuck" is a deceptively "cute" word for what is a major surgical procedure! Contrary to what some have stated, I did not find the procedure very painful, but recovery is still a long process. I am already very happy with the results. Two years after my weight loss…

I am on day 16 - and have had similar problems the last few days. I had similar problems at this point in my first Whole 30 as well - it did clear up within a few days. I did closely examine my diet - and I think the amount of fat I have been consuming the past few days is lower - also, my water intake has diminished over…

This - AND it is about so much more than the number on the scale - try not to be so hard on yourself!

Day 16 for me and I really do feel great! Yesterday was a challenging day for me - my youngest daughter turned 19, the "legal" age where we live. Of course, this life event involved a dinner/night out at a local pub. As I anticipated, pub food is not exactly "Whole 30" friendly. So proud of myself for facing the challenge…

Day 10 for me and I am feeling great! I am 4 weeks post abdominoplasty - and was hoping another Whole 30 would help me regain some energy/strength. I am still very restricted as far as activity goes so I am focusing only on food - and so far so good. I have noticed a huge reduction in swelling across my abdomen and a…

Hello - I'm new to this thread but look forward to getting to know you all. I am three weeks post abdominoplasty after losing 120 pounds, and am doing a "Whole 30" for the month of November hoping to get back on track with healthy eating and regain some of my lost strength. My goals for November: - Complete the Whole 30…

Bumping for later

Feel free to add me, as well. I'm not tracking anything but excercise during my Whole 30 - but normally do track all food.

I would probably drink a little extra water today - maybe go for a walk or bike ride, and be happy that I can enjoy life and then get back on track. Hope you had a great time celebrating with your grandson!

Thanks for sharing your list. Some I'm familiar with, and some are new - looking forward to investigating further! Kerry

I would love to connect with other Paleo followers as well - feel free to add me!

I started my second Whole 30 April 1 - still struggling with the call of the scale, but otherwise everything is going well. I'm sending a friend request and looking forward to following along with your journey. Kerry

I'm in for my second!

Sounds like you are well prepared for your first week. My favorite breakfast while on my Whole 30 was roasted sweet potato with cinnamon and nutmeg, a little raw nut butter and some mixed berries with shredded coconut on top. Good luck!

You can add me, as well - I aim for more than 80 % and track often.

I just finished my first Whole 30 - and it was great! I would love to follow along as you complete yours. Good luck!

I do a lot of preparation on the weekend. I pre-cook most of my protein (with the exception of seafood) and do as much prep as possible with my vegetables. I prefer salads and raw veg, so that's quite easy to prepare ahead. I'm just finishing up a Whole 30, and I feel much of my success with that program is because I…

Best of luck to you - I am on Day 27 and have learned so much on this journey!

The first ten pounds did the trick for me - I've had no issue since.

Good question - I am in a similar situation and look forward to reading the responses!
