This time around is so different!!!! It's been ten time easier than the last time. I'm not sure if it's because I have no dining hall to enable my wandering eye or if it's because my heads in it differently. I'm going with both. The fact is, it's 6:30PST and I'm awake with energy. That hasn't happened in a long while. This morning though, I must confess, I woke up hungry. I popped out of bed and consumed some cashews and a banana. So here I am.
My fridge is stocked and so are my cabinets. I made grocery lists for 4 different stores, as to get the cheapest deal! I'm feeling really good about whole 30 this time. I was really mean to it last time and I think that was a combination of a lot of things. I was fixated on all the "can'ts" and didn't see what I could eat. I felt like I was missing something. This time I don't feel that way at all. This time I'm attempting to look at it like a glass half full.
I wanted to take a minute to write this post to encourage others if you've done the whole30, try it again! If you haven't done it ever and want a good kick start. Really follow the directions and go for it. It will suck, no lies there. But it'll be worth it. I'm already seeing differences in myself and it's only been 3 days.
This time around, I'm relaying less on fruit to help those sugar cravings. I'm not turning to my go-to, Oh it's fine to have a little of this, I'll just keep going. WHICH I DID. I realize now, I was only hurting my own progress. I'm much more serious about this time around and putting more planning into it. I'm reading better and turning more to protein and veggies when I have a craving. The thing I do find most interesting is my constant need to eat. I'm eating every few hours, not a meal but some smaller. I'm finding that I just am either burning food quicker or am just hungry more often.....I'll go with the former. ;)
Let's do this. Have a lovely Sunday friends!
