Whole30 Days 8,9,10 and 11

      Running behind here so I'll keep it brief!  Whole30 is going awesome!  To be honest, days are passing pretty slowly.  But as long as I've got a plan and stick to it, it's pretty breezy!

     We encountered our first whole day away from home this week which I was pretty nervous about.  I was asked to bring soup to the meal so I just made sure to bring something on plan and there were plenty of fruits and veggies available as well.  It wasn't difficult at all to just eat what I was supposed too.  I think that's the beauty of the "no cheating or you start over" rule!  It's pretty motivating to just stick to the plan!

      Speaking of rules...... they are also pretty strict on their "DO NOT weigh yourself until the end" rule, but full disclosure~  I'm breaking that rule.  If you really want to know why I'll tell you.  As a result I know that I've lost a couple of pounds (which with what my body has been doing is a huge encouragement!), I'm continuing to be headache free, I really think my energy is getting better.  I added exercise back into the routine after giving myself a break for the beginning.  It's going good so far and not totally zapping all of my energy reserves!  So overall, I'm excited!!!

     Sorry for the awful food pictures!  My camera battery charger is LOST!!!  I feel like crying!  My ipad is a terrible substitute but at least it's something!
