Fourth Week of Whole30
Well, I made it!! I wasn’t too good about blogging, but I did very well with sticking to the plan.
As the weather became cooler last week, I was in the mood for a goody so I am looking forward to making some paleo chocolate chip cookies from a recipe a friend shared with me.
For that day, I made me some avocado pudding sweetening it with a few dates.
This week, I enjoyed some chia pudding with bananas. I used my immersion blender to blend the bananas in with the pudding. This did the trick. 🙂
I am feeling the same, although I haven’t taken Advair in three days, so that is good. I don’t feel like I need it either.
Did I learn anything while on the Whole30?
Well, I can now say my issue isn’t food related. It helps, but there are other factors. When the weather shifted a few weeks ago, my sinuses went crazy. Sadly I had to take Mucinex a few days that week. The same thing happened in June or July when the weather shifted to being hotter.
So, what next?
I will continue to eat this way because it makes me feel better. After a meal, I don’t feel heavy or bloated. Plus, I know it is way healthier for me. I am still working on getting the family aboard although they will eat most of what I make.
It has also helped me be more consistent like I was hoping. Now that I am officially ‘off’, I am hoping to continue to be more consistent with making healthy food choices.
Now, if I can get myself to exercise!…

Hi Cynthia! I’ve also learned that wheat wasn’t the cause to all my woes, though it does help my digestive system a lot when I restrict it. I hope you can continue to find what helps your breathing difficulties. I am still in search of what will limit the inflammation of my joints. 🙁
By the way, how did those cookies turn out? 😉
I’m about to print out your Philippians pages so that I can participate in the Doorpost study. I already joined the facebook group. With my crazy days lately, I need something that’s short and to the point.
Hope to talk to you soon…right after my sis leaves!
Blessings!

Hey Dee!
I am so glad to hear you will be doing the study in Philippians. I know you will enjoy it.
The cookies were yummy! The kids were eating the dough before I could get them in the oven. 🙂 But, they didn’t come out looking like yours, small and plump. Mine spread flat. 🙁 Not sure where I went wrong.
I will email you more soon.
Blessings,
Cynthia
