Whole 26 update

I am leaner & meaner.  I did a Whole 26 without gluten, alcohol, grains, soy, legumes, sugar, or dairy.  And I dropped 10 lbs.!  

Am I going to dietary h-e-double-hockeystick for making it a Whioe 26 instead if Whole 30?  I hope not, because a lot of good came of this month-long whole food fest:

1. Il dont need wine/pasta/bread daily to get through busy weeks.

2. Spaghetti squash is awesome!  Coffee is still awesome!

3.  Processed food and grains bring me down in every way--mood-wise, bloat-wise.

My pot belly is closer to gone, my pants fit more closer to fine...

Ok I feel a twinge of guilt for not pushing through it for 4 more days, but I never, ever thought I could eat clean for this long.  

My happiness project.  January was about food, real food.  In terms of taking over my happiness and well-being, what will February be about?  Music?  Exercise?  Reading?  Stay tuned...

90-DHC Day 4

First day back to work, found it easier to eat healthy there...especially now that the holiday goodies are  history.  Carried my positive attitude with me...was even asked in jest if I was "on something" by a colleague because I just refused to let work stress get to me today.  Happiness is my choice:-)

1. drink 8 glasses of water a day - (almost) DONE!
2. eat (and serve) at least 3 servings of veggies/fruits a day -DONE!
3. exercise at least 30 minutes at least 3x/week - rest day
4. tidy/attack clutter for at least 10 min - DONE! Folded some whites that had been languishing in the dryer for days...:-(
