My first 30 days ended yesterday and I know I said I wasn’t going to post a summary but I couldn’t help it. 😉
Over the Last 30 Days
Eggs = 86
Bone Broth = 81 Litres
Water = 44 Litres
Kombucha = 23.5 Litres
Cups of Coffee (w/ coconut milk & gelatin) = 36
Decaf EG Tea Lattes (made w/ coconut milk) = 11
Mayo = 4 Cups
Sleep = 251.5 Hours
Green Time = 867 minutes (14.5 hours)
As far as what I gained while I was eating all that food and spending so much time sleeping? I gained clearing skin (FINALLY), revitalizing sleep, stronger hair and nails, a stable mood & happier disposition (even in the face of stress or upset), consistent energy, consistent outdoor time, interesting information about my relationship with food and a huge sense of accomplishment!
So what did I lose? Bloat, stomach upset, mild depression and hopelessness, anxiety, brain fog, eczema and a short temper. I also lost a total of 4.5″ across my entire body which is not overly significant and which temporarily suspended my delight at completing my first 30 days. Fortunately I then took my head out of my ass and celebrated the 4.5″ and all the other amazing markers that remind me that I am happier and healthier!
So, the next 30 days? So exciting! Daunting, a bit. But exciting and challenging and I’m open to whatever might come, whatever I might learn about myself and whatever path this experiment takes me down. I’m ready!
Awesome results!! Congratulations my friend, you have done fantastic. So glad to hear you got such positive results and I wish you the best of luck in your next 30 days! I have loved following along (stalking) you on your journey, keep up the good work! xoxo
Thanks Tara! xoxo
So interesting to follow you on your journey here. I am the worst at sticking to something the way you did. 30 Days – YOU DID AMAZING!!! How do you keep track all your info?
Hey Lynn, thank you! I’m very proud of the 30 days and though it seems daunting to continue on for another 70-ish, I know it’s the right thing to do for me!
Your question about tracking all the info, I assume you mean the eggs, broth, green time etc? I have a tab along the top of the page called Whole30 Logging….I update it every day so when I went to do the summary I just went through and added up the things like water, eggs, sleep etc. (needless to say, I have a bit of extra time on my hands at work, LOL!)
Thanks for your comment and for reading along!
