[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Start with the 'what you can eat' on the whole30 shopping list and focus on that rather than what you can't eat. It shifts your mindset.

Meal planning is key. Nothing super detailed, just try to think ahead before you go shopping.

Find snacks that work for you. I love larabars, but only a few qualify for whole30. Nuts and as much fruit as I want.

I'm on day 12. Last year I did this and I lost 2lbs a week.

So why are you doing it again? Unsustainable?[/quote]

I actually adopted most of the changes in the diet and carried it through the year (sugar free sauces, peanut butter, coffee, spaghetti squash in lieu of pasta, nuts for snacks, etc).  But I looove the holiday meals and allowed myself to enjoy desserts, dark chocolates from my kids for Christmas, delicious cheeses, wine and good bread. Now it's time to refocus and set myself back on my path.

I was just telling a coworker how easy it was for me this time around. Really it was just a matter of throwing out all the holiday splurges and not buying wine. The first whole30 was the toughest because I needed to build up a good list of recipes and snacks. Now I just am going back to what I was doing before the holidays and my whole 30 recipes are actually my families favorites. [/quote]
