Whole30 Journal ~ Days 1-4

So, here it is!  My Food/Mood Log for the first 4 days of my first Whole30!  




Day 1~Monday, July 9


Wake up at 5am.  Feel pretty good for only 6 hours of sleep :)
1 cup coffee with full fat coconut milk, 1/2C. peppermint tea, glass of lemon/lime water

8am - 3 sm. HB eggs, Chai Tea over ice, Cauliflower & bell pepper with ranch dressing, 2 bite-size pcs of canteloupe
9:15 (still hungry!) - half of keylime pie larabar
11:20 - other half of larabar (on my way out to run errands!)
12:30 - Crockpot chicken with veggies (celery, carrots, onions).  Cauliflower & peppers w/ranch dressing
5:40 - Pecan Pie Larabar
7:30 - Beef Roast w/veggies (celery, carrots, onions, tomatoes) & Salad

Dinner.  The beef & veggies were bland.  The salads were great!

Was in bed before 9:00, but was on the phone for a while and then tossed and turned until after 10:00.  Woke up several times during the night.

Obviously, I need to work on making my meals last longer so that I am not eating so often!



Day 2~Tuesday, July 10
Up at 5:00am after a very restless night.  Did 40 minutes of Kickboxing.

6:15 - Sausage/egg scramble, steamed broccoli & cauliflower, coffee with full fat coconut milk, glass of peppermint iced tea


It's 8:54.  I'm hungry.  This too shall pass... Take another drink of your lemon water.


Wheew!  Made it until after noon without starving!


12:20 - Crockpot chicken with veggies (celery, carrots, onions).  Cauliflower & peppers w/ranch dressing.  Banana Bread Larabar
2:30 - Chai Tea (iced)
6:00 - 20 minute walk with a friend
7:00 - Turkey Burger with creamed cucumbers and tomato slices
9:00 - sleepytime tea

Dinner

Felt hungry most of the day, but not unbearable.  Had a sugar craving after dinner, it passed quickly.


Day 3~Wednesday, July 11
Woke up at 5am.  Still a restless night, but not as bad as the night before!  Did a 25 minute cross-training workout.

6:30 - egg/sausage scramble & fried eggplant, energy green tea, coffee w/coconut milk
11:00 - feeling hungry, but it's too early for lunch.  Having a hot cup of Tazo Awake Black Tea instead
12:40 - Turkey Burger with creamed cucumbers and tomato slices, 1/2 banana bread Larabar (YUCK!)

Day 4 ~Thursday, July 12
Woke up at 3:20 in a lot of pain (monthly cycle).  Fell back to sleep around 4:45.  Alarm went off at 6:00.  Hit snooze until 6:45.  Slowly made breakfast and then couldn't eat it :(
