Learning the dos and don'ts of Whole30 is proving to be a bit of a tricky business! I've managed to have corn with every meal today, and had peas at dinner time too. Ooops. We live and learn.
Breakfast: chicken and sweetcorn risotto
Lunch: chicken and sweetcorn risotto with salad leaves
Dinner: roast chicken, jacket potatoes, gravy, peas and sweetcorn
Fruit: honeydew melon
The last two days I seem to have done nothing but think about food. However, there is a very helpful little paragraph on the Whole30 website:
It is not hard. Don’t you dare tell us this is hard. Beating cancer is hard. Birthing a baby is hard. Losing a parent is hard. Drinking your coffee black. Is. Not. Hard. You’ve done harder things than this, and you have no excuse not to complete the program as written. It’s only thirty days
It isn't a trivial thing to do the Whole30. I've been trying for 2 days, and I messed up on both days. It happened by accident, not by design, and tomorrow will be a better day.
My guts were in uproar last month, and my energy levels were all over the place. I want to get to a place where the food I am putting into my body nourishes me properly and doesn't cause problems.
I've love some chocolate just now. My body wouldn't. This month has to be about my body's 'needs', rather than my brain's 'wants'.
