Day 31: The Results are In!

After eating for 30 days: no dairy, no grains, no legumes (including peanuts or soy), no sugar, no artificial things…

• Clothes fit better!
• Before/After photo have a noticeable difference in my waist. Met one of my goals!
• Lost 4-8 pounds. (weighed a couple times on day 0)
• Skin is “brighter”? Shiny in a non-greasy way. Not entirely cleared up but getting better. I knew going in to this that it takes more than 30 days to get dairy and gluten entirely out of your system. But encouraged by the results.
• More confident. Sounds funny to me, but I think it’s a combo of the increase in energy and knowing that I’m doing good for my body. This has resulted in wearing pre-baby clothes for my husband around the house. Fun.

This was my first whole30. There are several things I could do better at. But I wasn’t even sure I could do it beforehand. Now that I’m over that, the next time through I’ll have different goals (water intake, sleep, exercise) and more variety for my meals. And in between now and the next time, I plan to mostly eat this way.
