I learned a lot on this journey. I learned that started a new diet that weans you off of your favorite food will hurt... a lot. Like it makes you go blind and you have the poops for days!
I also learned that carbs make me hungry.. ALL THE TIME!!!
I have started in the last few days to add back a few of the carbs that I cut out. And guess what? The weight is starting to reappear on the scale.
I was not the type to stay off the scale. I'm a daily weigh-er... it's just the way I am. I have started to add back sugar and that is the one that seems to make me hungrier during the day.
SO I have decided I'm going to try to eat as closely to Whole30 as I can and then have one day (on the weekend) that I can splurge. Have a drink, have a bun... whatever.
In total I lost about 8 lbs this month. Not bad, but I think I could have done a little better. Not sure about my measurements as I haven't taken them yet. I'll do that later and share the results.
I do like the way my skin feels and how much better I sleep. No heartburn and S says I even stopped snoring!! I'm going for some blood work soon so it will be nice to see if that changed as well.
I'm going to go back to no sugar for the week and see if that starts moving the scale again. I also need to drink more water... drinking water just doesn't seem to be a habit for me
