I restarted whole30 this week, basically in an attempt to both lose weight and run faster. For sure this week the running faster thing is not happening. Sigh I find myself significantly less committed to the whole "no cheating" thing than I was the first time around. This attempt is also significantly less public than the first time around, and I don't have any friends doing it with me.
Pre-Tuesday (when I restarted) I really went all out with carbs and alcohol, so maybe better decisions could've been made there.
Tuesday - went okay, though I was under prepared for this undertaking. Much like the first time around. And then I got sick and went to bed early.
Wednesday - I went out to eat with Olive and it was glorious.
Thursday - went fine, I think. I'm so glad I have my bacon back.
Friday - I "cheated" and had potato chips and a diet pepsi. See what I mean? Significantly less committed than the first time around. At first I'd been thinking of cheating with a latte because it's Friday afternoon so the drink won't make me sick at work right? After a hot run in the sun, diet pepsi and chips seemed like the appropriate gas station food.
Saturday - I had to clarify my rules around lattes. Originally I'd said no lattes because I learned from whole30 how milk affects my body. So, I've updated the lattes rule to be "no lattes on work days" so I don't upset my stomach on work days. Update: I have no idea what I think it's okay to make myself sick on non-work days. Perhaps this rule needs additional thought?
I realized that my crap week of running coincided with going back on Whole30, and remembering how great I felt the first week I did it. And then I remembered how fast I was running by the end of whole30 and that did help me re-commit to this whole thing
