Heeeeeeeeeere we gooooooooo…

It's a new year and I'm just like everyone else… looking to make changes for a healthier life. I tried whole30 last year and had some success. What I discovered is that I didn't do nearly enough towards the end the right way. And while I know that losing weight is never easy for anyone, I have some autoimmune issues getting in the way of my efforts most of the time. I also noticed that I loved how I FELT when I was doing whole30. I had lots of non-scale victories that month.  My skin, my sleep habits, my energy level… all showed marked signs of improvement.  

Now I'm looking forward to feeling those differences again. The best part of this journey is taking it with my great friend, Nicci. (The reason we've got an "s" on that Nicoles in the title! 😉) She's the one that introduced me to whole30 and seriously changed how I look at food. 

So today, my start begins. 

Whole30. 

Day 1. 

Breakfast was easy… scrambled eggs and a broiled grapefruit. 

Lunch was pretty awesome. Spicy chicken legs with roasted zucchini. I know we aren't supposed to snack BUT I find at the beginning, it's easier if I have a few snacks. Today was green olives, sweet peppers, and cucumbers. 

I had prepped chicken legs yesterday so I had them ready for lunch and dinner today. I reheated them at the end of roasting cauliflower and GINORMOUS green onions. So delicious!!! 

More adventures tomorrow…
