WOOT WOOT!!!!
**CLAPPING FOR MYSELF (AGAIN)**
YAY!!!
I finished my second round of Whole30!!!
So I have finished my second round of Whole30 for a total of 60 days!!! Everything I posted in my previous post of what I learned and gained from Whole30 still holds true but I know people wanted to know what my results were from going 60 days. If you want to read my first round of Whole30 completion blog click here - http://healthloveandyoga.blogspot.com/2013/04/whole-30-complete.html.
Results:
During my first round of Whole30, you might remember I lost 11 pounds and 11 inches. So at the end of my second Whole30 I was ready for another dramatic weight loss and was disappointed (at first). So during my second Whole30, I lost 5 pounds. I was disappointed at first because the first 30 days I lost 11 but after I spent time thinking about it, 5 pounds is super awesome for 30 days and healthy!!! Well, and the other thing that helped me be happy about the less weight loss was that I still lost a lot of inches - 10.5 inches to be exact!!!
So my total results for my Whole 60 was a total weight loss of 16 pounds and 21.5 inches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not too bad if I do say so myself :)
Reintroduction:
I honestly don't have much to say about reintroduction. After Whole30, they recommend adding in one thing at a time alone to see if you have any issues with it. Honestly, I was hoping dairy or bread would make me sick and make me know I can never eat it again. This happens for a lot of people. Not for me! haha of course! So reintroducing foods did not really effect me. The only thing I will say I felt as an effect of reintroducing things was heartburn. I didn't have heartburn during the entire 60 days but I did almost instantly after eating other foods.
I have had some people ask me what I am going to do now that my Whole60 is over. I was just on vacation and ate what I wanted and was not really effected by anything I ate. But I will say that I never really felt satisfied and missed eating my good meals, where I know where everything comes from. So what am I going to do now? I plan to continue to eat the Whole30 way most of the time but if I have to eat out for something or have an event, I'm not going to limit myself because that just does not work. However, I miss eating how I did during Whole30 and just felt so much healthier and am excited to get back to eating like this 99.9% of the time!
Again, why not try Whole30 Yourself?!?!
I have a ton of friends that have already decided to try Whole30 because of what I experienced. So if you're the slightest bit thinking about it, why not just do it?!?! Let me know if you're interested, we're starting another group June 1st!
