@HeidiCooksSupper yes, it is caffeine. I don't drink coffee so that is why it is so hard to give up soda. I am substituting tea but also have to take aspirin for a few days. Thanks for the tip!

Those all look yummy! Thanks for sharing. Guess I need to get a spiralizer...

Welcome Stephanie! It might help if you cook ahead and freeze in individual portions. I do taco meat, grilled chicken. I also like to keep hard boiled eggs on hand. I love smoothies and that's a quick and easy breakfast. It's a lot easier if you like salads :)

Sesame almond butter doodles sounds great Had my power smoothie for breakfast. Lunch was a chopped salad with turkey, turkey bacon, bell peppers, banana peppers, onions and homemade balsamic dressing. Also had apple slices with almond butter. Dinner will be taco salad with salsa. I love ground turkey with homemade taco…

Here's a link for tips on kale chips.. http://ohsheglows.com/2014/03/12/6-tips-for-flawless-kale-chips-all-dressed-kale-chips-recipe/

Glad to hear everyone is doing good! Back to day 1 for me :)

Sorry I was MIA. Out of town for my daughters dance competition. Overall did pretty well but didn't stay 100 percent on plan. Social events are so tough. Back at it now. Am loving my breakfast smoothies with kale, spinach, frozen berries, banana, pineapple, chia seeds and coconut milk. And I love salad for lunch. Looking…

I have the same problem with produce. If its spinach, I either saute it or put it in a smoothie. If kale starts to look a little wilted I make some kale chips. If its zucchini or peppers I make roasted vegetables and save to eat over a couple of days...

Some great ideas for dressings, marinades and vegetables here (a link a friend gave me..not endorsing the program). Links to pdf files are at the bottom of the page http://3010weightlossforlife.com/recipes

So glad to see so many people joining! Bebe..so great you have a group of friends to do this with.

Thanks for the feedback about the recipe. Here are a couple of my favorite marinades. Best to marinade in a zip lock bag for at least an hour, preferably overnight Steak *** can also use for shiskabobs 1/4 cup tamari (like soy sauce) 1/3 cup olive oil Juice of 1 lime or lemon 1/2 tsp. onion salt 1/4 tsp. garlic powder or…

Sounds yummy..let us know how it goes.

Sounds good!

Hi Laura and Stephanie My name is Denise. I am 57 and also from Chicago! I am married and have an 18 year old son, a 17 year old daughter. I lost 25 pounds about 7 years ago, ran marathons and felt better than I have my whole life. I slowly slipped out of running and began emotional/stress eating and put the weight back…

How do you cook the spaghetti squash? Do you make your own marinara? I've never tried it

Welcome @sadiebrawl. My meals were also the same today as yesterday. I usually prep on Sunday's. Make lemon chicken breast and turkey taco meat and freeze in individual portions. Chicken breast marinade is just olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt and other seasonings. I make my own taco seasoning that I…

Yay @EliMaks! Welcome!

By the way, the Fast Metabolism Diet is similar and there are lots of good recipes at hayliepomroy.com. Just ignore the phases (and eliminate beans). If you are on Instagram, the account whole30recipes has some great recipes.

Great job on your first day! Try adding some raw nuts, nut butte, sweet potatoes or avocado to help you feel more full. I had a breakfast skillet with a poached egg on top. The skillet had sweet potatoes peppers onions and spinach sautéed in coconut oil. It was awesome! Lunch was a salad with grilled chicken, veggies and…

I just started whole 30 yesterday and would love some support also. I have done a similar program called the fast metabolism diet it really work for me. This one seems a bit simpler Love it if you would start a group
