Whole 30 - week three


It was the week we were all dreading, Thanksgiving week. To cheat or not to cheat? That was the question. And well, let's just say it! We all cheated in some way. But, mostly by accident by attempting to be Whole30 approved and later finding out something was made with wine, or honey or some kind of sweetener after the fact. But you know what? Afterwards, we kept calm and carried on. The rest of the week went well, and we made it to week four somehow! It's true that the rules say if you cheat you have to start over, but we're not taking this THAT religiously. Because the real change has already begun in our minds and bodies when it comes to food, and that's what really matters.

Right now, I'm just thinking about day 31, when I can make my coffee with milk and (less) sugar. And be happy inside. Oh, and having Mexican with the tortillas & chips! Or going out to eat without looking at websites for what's approved. Let me not get too ahead of myself because my mouth is literally watering at the thought of this. Staying focused now!

Week Three
Biggest success: saying no to all the pie and dessert on Thanksgiving day!
Biggest struggle: saying no to the stuffing and gravy and cheesy potatoes on Thanksgiving too. lol

We're on to week 4! Bring on the veggies and the meats!!
