I started Whole30 yesterday! Add me for some mutual support. :smile:

Hey there! I just started the Whole30 again. I did it last year with AMAZING results. I slept through the night, woke up refreshed, had tons of energy to get through my day and hit the gym up, and I just all around felt good about myself. My emotions were in check. The losing weight aspect of it was almost just a bonus. I…

Chicken sausage and bell peppers, with plaintain chips and guacamole. And plenty of water!

I am! I'm in downtown Tacoma.

The Whole30 program is sort of like a restart for your body. At the end, you can slowly reintroduce foods and see what ones affect you negatively. The book is a great read, I highly recommend it.

I did it last year, the first week I was dragging. But by the end, I had SO much energy, I was sleeping through the night, and waking up refreshed without hitting snooze. I completely regret not sticking with it (I went on vacation at the end of the 30 days and threw the rules away). One great thing about the Whole 30 is…

Loving all this motivation! Thanks for the adds and support. :smiley:

I didn't even know they had drama on this site! Craziness. Good luck this time around, no more drama sir.

I love that seeing Mt Rainier becomes like a "treat" and makes it seem even more beautiful than it already is!

I opt to have smaller portions of some things I really want. Or less of the added extras. Or just have a bite off of a friend or family member's treat! I used to drink a grande white chocolate mocha EVERY morning, sometimes another in the afternoon. Some days, I still need that caffeine and I'm not a fan of how bitter…

Feel free to add me! I'm at 1200 calories a day, but I don't really cook at all... I'm awful at it. I really need to work on that...

BodyBuilding.com is a GREAT site to find workout plans. I did some of Jamie Eason's LiveFit to help me prepare for a PT test (I'm military) and I did better than I ever have! BodyBuilding.com suggests plans based on sex, age, and fitness goal. Losing weight is an option! I love BodyBuilding.com because it has printouts for…

For burgers, I would use some of the special thin buns you can buy at stores now. Not as many carbs and calories! Also, you can buy turkey burgers! Add some avacado and you have a still tasty, but healthier burger! For your pastas, you could switch to some of the whole wheat pastas out there, and use simple sauces. I…

Thank you everybody! I can't wait to try all of these yummy places!

Reader. Also, awesome because your ticker has Daryl in it! :love:

Hey there! This is the third attempt for me to lose weight, and so far, this has been my best yet! My favorite part of MyFitnessPal is the community. There is SO much support on here, inspirational stories, and great suggestions for food and working out. Feel free to add me, I love to support my fellow MFPers!

It's a pic where I'm still big, but my hair looks good and the pose helped me look a little smaller! :drinker:
