No bread?! No pasta?! No alcohol?!

Not going to lie, I was a little nervous and intimidated to start Whole30.

Now that I'm half way there, I'm feeling great!

However, half way in and I don't miss any of those things in the least.

I did have one moment where I did want to cheat, we went out for Mexican food last Sunday.

I ate before we got there, determined to stick with the Whole30.

I also didn't want to be the, "Guys, can we please go somewhere I can eat?" person.

So, we got there and everyone ordered drinks and tons of amazing food.

I stuck it out and it really wasn't too bad.

Not only did I stick with my goals I also felt a little empowered for not giving in, making it totally worth it!

Okay so let's get down to it, what have I been eating?!

Bottom line, I've been eating a lot.

Starting the Whole30 I realized that I had a pretty healthy diet to start with.

There really wasn't too much to change, other than we had pasta for dinner many nights a week.

Also, every morning I had a piece of wheat toast with breakfast.

Cutting those things out were pretty easy, though.

Here's what a day of food looks like for me:

Breakfast:

Two Eggs

Potatoes

Some Whole30 Approved Meat

Half of an Avocado - Mashed

Fruit of some sort

Lunch:

Fruit or Veggie Salad

I add some sort of Meat

Also, my FAVORITE Whole30 Approved Salad Dressing

Dinner:

This is where I like to get creative

Here are a few recipes I've tried:

Paleo/Whole30 Pot Roast

Shepherd's Pie

Catfish

We also BBQ'd twice which was super nice and lent to TONS of leftovers

Snacks:

Usually some Nuts

Hard Boiled Eggs

Fresh Cut Veggies

Fruit - Apple, Banana etc.

So in keeping with the spirit of Whole30 I have not weighed myself since Day 1!

Not going to lie, I'm super curious and have almost broken that rule, but alas I will not!

I hope you can use this post and these recipes as a little inspiration yourself, whether your considering embarking on the Whole30 train or if you just want some healthier meals to incorporate into your daily lives.

What were your Whole30 go-to Meals/Snacks?! I'm always looking for new and yummy foods to eat!!

Cheers!
