Whole 30 Day 21!!!!! I started this journey about a month ago at 282 lbs. I was so close to 300 that I really wanted badly to never see that number. It was terrifying. So I got crazy. Took some before pics (I will post at the end of this post, so do not look if you dont want to vomit, lol!) and some pix along the way. Here is a current status of where Ive been and where Im at I measured myself before and again last night. Suffice it to say, Im down 17+ inches all over. An inch from the wrists (funny that this is where I see the biggest difference; I can actually see a wrist bone!!), and a few inches from my waist and hips (almost five each!!). My calves and thighs got a 1/2 inch thicker, which makes sense given all the freakin squats we are doing!! Im now at 263.6. Thats a total loss of almost twenty pounds in a month. Thats three days a week of going to c...

Started crossfit last week, and they began their Whole30 challenge today, and I decided to join. Got weighed, pictures taken, and signed up. Essentially, its an extremely clean diet consisting of fruits, veggies, meat, fish, chicken. High quality, organic foods, and grass fed beef. Should be very interesting to see how this goes. NO sugar, no alcohol and no processed foods. What I need from my friends and family for this is support. I may be MIA for awhile as its hard to attend social functions where everyone else is drinking, and Im choosing not to. This is pretty out of the box for me, so I want to do everything I can to make sure I succeed. At the end, I hope to have a totally different relationship with food. The trainer this morning told me that quitting heroin was easier than detoxing from a sugar addiction. I sure will be fun to be around!...
