First Whole30

Anyone else have a sweet tooth? I think my sweet tooth grew in about 3 years ago (and with it came my love of many other unhealthy foods). And being a newlywed has not helped kick these newer eating habits. It wasn’t until about a month ago that I decided that it is time to bite the bullet and get serious. My sweet friend Becky began doing the Whole30 a month ago and has been raving about how it changed her life and how great she has felt ever since. So, on May 5^th I started day 1 of my challenge. While I would love to be able to do the full 30 days, my husband and I leave for California later this month. And if I am being honest, I don’t want to restrict my diet on vacation. So I will only be doing 20 days- but hey, you have to start somewhere right? So far I have been going strong and am already loving how I feel!

Previous to starting the Whole30 my allergies did not have the same love for Spring that I do (who doesn’t love all of the brightly colored flowers & the sound of birds chirping?).  Now that I have cut out dairy and glutton my body is feeling great! My allergies are clear, my body feels energized, and I am sleeping soundly. Has anyone else done the Whole30 challenge? Any tips or favorite meals?
