Midday update
Breakfast was a hamburger patty, green beans, and the leftover grilled potatoes, and coffee with Califia creamer. I was actively hungry for breakfast (super-rare for me) and I enjoyed eating it.
Lunch was an RX bar because I am just not hungry for anything else right now. I know I should be forcing myself to eat something because of the whole “retraining your hunger/appetite/metabolism” part of W30 but it’s the only part of the program I’m not 100% on board with, because it’s the part that for me might flirt with disordered eating. I will not eat what is brutally unappetizing (either due to content or lack of appetite) just for the sake of following a plan. Also, breakfast was big and relatively carb-heavy with the potatoes, so I’m not too worried.
I honestly feel really good and energetic. I can already tell in just 3.5 days of different eating patterns my swelling/water retention has lessened significantly. I’m overall feeling better than I have either of the last two times I did a W30. I’m cautiously optimistic that this is the right thing to be doing for me right now.
