Day 6-10 of My First Whole30

HOW I FELT
 
Overall, I felt good, the headache was gone after day 6. But on the seventh day, I started feeling like having constant naps.
 
- I have such good support from my friends, my foodie friends in Chicago & all over the country, and my lovely boyfriend. Thank you again for all your support, likes, and comments on my Instagram Account @nattyspantry. Also, my boyfriend tends to eat with me on my whole30 program food when we were together, it made my life easier, and having such a good motivation has a positive impact on me to complete this program.

 - On the 9th day, I immediately felt a deep hunger when I woke up in the morning. And my body tells me that I need some more protein. I went to the kitchen and made myself some Thai Turkey burger benedict for my breakfast.  

- After the 7th day, I felt like I sleep better. One of the good qualities I think I possess is that I don’t wake up while sleeping during the night.  
​
- Digestion makes me feel really good. This is the good thing about Whole30; I never feel bloated after eating. Now I am planning to continue this program as much as I can after these 30 days.  

- On the 10th day, it has been the toughest day when Halloween candy surrounds me. I was so sure when I started this program that I will not crave for any sugar for the whole 30 days, but hey - when I saw REESE'S, Peanut Butter Cup, and Kit Kat in the Halloween treat Jar, I immediately started having second thoughts on my decision. Ha! But my feeling to complete this program is going strong, and I come to the point that I want to maintain the healthy feeling of my body and my soul, so I stick to the rule and didn’t give up.  

As always, let me know if you have questions. I’m happy to answer!
