First, my hub’s review is probably going to be more entertaining than mine. You can read it here: http://ben.lobaugh.net/blog/202603/whole-30-in-review
Second, I don’t believe we made it the actual 30 days. Life happens.
Third, I learned a ton. About me. And food. And me and food.
I learned I don’t do dairy. Yuck yuck yuck. My tummy feels much happier, healthier. If I accidently consume dairy I’m a train wreck with a huge tummy ache.
I also learned how important it is to stop and read the labels in the grocery store. That it is easy to eat wholesome food. That herbs, spices are your (tasty) friends. And my list making and organization rocked the whole 30.
My hubs and I learned that we are two meals + snacks kind of people. During a normal day (which I’m not a lifeless sleeping zombie recuperating or preparing for night shift) we eat breakfast/brunch and dinner. Usually. Three meals for us is a lot. We like snacking, which wasn’t endorsed by The Whole 30. We made it work. I don’t think my hubs starved…. Too much 😉
Following that last statement, I also learned my hubs believed he had scurvy during The Whole 30 (absolutely ridiculous) See link above.
And I want to do it again! We felt so great after the first week. It’s really touched my eating habits and made me a better nutrionista for myself. Except now. I’m having candy for dinner. Oops.
Review done. Got to consult the calendar to see when we can do our second Whole 30!
