My Whole 30 Journey - Week 3

Last week I pretty much ranted about missing cheese and bread. This week I can tell you honestly, that I haven't had that many cravings for the unhealthy foods that I was going crazy for last week. Its amazing, like a flip has been switched. Last week I thought I would go mad without a bag of chips, a tub of Ben and Jerry's, and a Dr. Pepper.

I was also pretty bummed about not seeing results. While I still haven't lost any weight and am still snacking more that is suggested, I am way less tired. I haven't taken naps at all this week. I have been staying up to at least midnight every night and getting up at 5:45 to feed A and then getting up and going on with my day. Its been really great. I have never been a morning person, but I am now and its glorious!

I feel wonderful. I am pretty sure that my lack of weight loss has to do with the leftover hormones from my pregnancy and from breastfeeding. However, I am not really phased by this as much as I was last week because I FEEL better. I feel cleaner and healthy. I cannot weight for my 6 week postpartum check up so that I can be cleared to start working out again. 

I am looking forward to this last week of my Whole 30 Journey

P.S. I have a small confession. I inadvertently ate soy. I didn't realize Worcestershire sauce has soy sauce in it. Oops! I always put Worcestershire sauce in my cottage pie and I didn't read the ingredients until after I had eaten. I felt really stupid, because one of the main things to be learned from the Whole 30 is reading labels. Oh well, too late to cry over spilt milk. I am just hoping that this doesn't mess up my cleanse. I do not want to have to start this journey over.
