Whole30: Day 14

From June 1 through June 30, I’m participating in the Whole30 clean-up/change your life/heal thyself plan. (Here’s why.)

Training
I had a totally intimidating, so-unsuccessful-it-felt-successful workout this morning; more on that at a later date. For the purposes of this accountability report, you should know there were snatches, box jumps, handstand pushups, jump rope, and thrusters (grrrrr.) involved. I give myself an A+ for fulfilling my goal of getting my ass out of bed and into the gym.

Food
Since I didn’t post yesterday, I have to play a little True Confession for Saturday night. After eating clean all day, I went out with some friends, and I consumed three-and-a-half cocktails (roll eyes/gasp/ tsk tsk /whatever…) and a 100% all-beef hot dog on a crusty Italian-bread bun from the Hot Dog King.

This is me, enjoying my Chicago dog. (And this is Bonita’s report on our debauchery – with more photos!)

You might be wondering how I can say I’m doing the Whole30 and eat a hot dog; more on that later today, too.

Here’s the scoop on my food yesterday. Clean as a whistle! Eggs, steak, salsa, guacamole; a homemade handroll made with nori, smoked salmon, and avocado; a few chunks of melon; hamburger patty, summer squash with coconut oil; blueberries with coconut milk; Sunbutter before bed.


Sleep
Saturday: Went to bed at 3:00-ish; woke up at 8:00-ish. Whatever.
Sunday: Somewhere in the neighborhood of 7.5 hours.

Thinkin’ you want to take better care of yourself? Here are some guidelines you might find helpful.

    I prefer more of a Whole 5 followed by UnWholy 2 type rotation 🙂 It's more sustainable for me and preserves my mental health. I hope you do not feel even a little guilty.

    ZERO guilt. I loved it, and I feel good about it now. But thanks so much for checking on me!
