As for how I am doing on this challenge. I already didn't eat dairy or caffenine so that was easy. My biggest challenge/vice is and was sugar. My headaches have gone away and so have my cravings. The thing I love most about this challenge is it has made me organized with my food. I eat more regularly which as always been a struggle for me. I have always been a super picky eater and this challenge has made me more conscious about my food choices. I do see myself maintaining this way of eating in the future. I also think from this point forward I will be more of a conscious eater and that is the best part of what I have learned. We are almost at the 1/2 way mark and I feel great. I think I am eating too much fruit to try to get that sugar fix on Day 15 till the end I am going to try to cut this in half. Any feedback about what I eat would be appreciated I am a bit concerned that maybe I am eating too much for my goals? All in all, writing down what you eat makes you so accountable. Thanks Chris for doing this challenge and for saying you thought I lost weight YEAH!
Sorry Amanda - apart from that and coconut water you're out of luck.
From the Whole30 blog: 4. Do not eat or add sugar of any kind, real or artificial. No maple syrup, honey, agave nectar, Splenda, Equal, Nutrasweet, xylitol, stevia, etc.
5. Do not eat processed foods. This includes protein shakes, processed bars (like Zone bars), dairy-free creamers, etc.
6. Do not drink alcohol, in any form. Those pretty much wipe out any other options - all natural juices are paleo - but will mess with insulin sensitivity without the fiber of the fruit to slow down the fructose uptake. So definitely not the best option
Throw a bunch of fruit slices in some ice water. You'd be amazed at how much flavor gets into the water.
Again from the blog: Most importantly… do not try to shove your old, crappy diet into a shiny new Whole30 mold. This means no “Paleo-fying” existing less-than-healthy recipes – no “Paleo” pancakes, pizza or Fudge Babies.
