[quote=Anonymous]Agree that the Whole30 should not be about losing weight but about identifying and reducing our addiction to additives, starches and sugar. We did it a year ago and lost some weight but the best part of it was finding real changes that were sustainable. We still eat a lot of spaghetti squash, zoodles, and cauliflower rice in place of starches. I have completely eliminated artificial sweeteners and snack foods like pretzels and crackers. We do eat legumes and some dairy and occasional starches like oatmeal or rice.

I agree with the advice to prepare, prepare, prepare. The recommendation to have cut up vegetables and even steam-saute some on Sunday is right on. We spent a ton of time preparing and cooking. Have something on hand that you can eat in a pinch, like applesauce, nuts, hard-boiled eggs or dates when you get desperate. I made and kept around paleo stir fry sauces for a quick dinner with whatever veggies we had on hand. We also did "garbage soup" which was a staple for easy meals or snacks. [/quote]
