Whole 30 Results

Bob and I have successfully completed the Whole 30 program with no cheats (except for the accidental canola oil in the mixed nuts incident at the beginning)! We are pretty happy with the results as well! We feel great! Energy levels are stabilized and high. We are no longer “carb-burners”, but “fat-adapted” and we can go a long time without eating if need be.  I particularly feel stronger and faster during my WODS. My skin has never been this clear for this long. My friends have noticed and keep complimenting me on my clear skin. My digestion is INCREDIBLE. I normally suffer from heartburn, acid-reflux, mild to severe stomach aches due to indigestion, bloating, bowel irregularity… we will stop there. It gets worse and I assure you that you don’t want to hear more. During Whole 30 my digestion was (and is) incredibly normal. I feel slimmer and more confident…. which brings me to how much we lost. I know this is what you guys really want to know.

Bob lost 17 lbs. I lost 11lbs. For me that’s more than 2 lbs per week, which I think is pretty good. Bob basically lost a pound every other day. We are pretty happy with our numbers. I think we both lost a lot in 30 days (without it being drastic or unhealthy).

 

 

I will expand more on our findings within the next few days…. But for now, we are pretty busy drinking today! ;-) In fact, we are drinking our first beer in 30 days as I write this. We are enjoying one of Bob’s homebrews. A double IPA… You know we’re happy!
