Although the hubs and I both would consider this to be our hardest Whole30, we really are doing well and staying on track. We’re pretty pitiful at times, drooling over ridiculous McDonald’s commercials, but then other times staring at Brandon’s vanishing belly and passing around high fives. We could have our own reality show really. It would be epic. Haha.

One of the most important things that has helped us stay on track in our whole30 eating has been making a meal plan. I cannot stress enough how important it is to have a plan! Granted, we don’t always stick to it to the T, but that’s not the point. Here’s the point: if I have planned out 15 meals for the week that means I have the ingredients in my house for 15 meals. If I end up moving these meals around or pushing them back to another day, fine. But never in this week will I look in the fridge or the pantry and think “there’s nothing good to eat”. There is always something good to eat! I am always prepared and fully stocked and it’s great!
