Whole30 Days 19-21
Day 19:
Breakfast: Homemade Turkey Patties and Sweet Potato Hash
Lunch: Tuna Salad (tuna, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, lettuce, avocado, olives)
Dinner: Chicken, carrots and broccoli with nutritional yeast
After Dinner Snack: Raspberries
What I drank: Ginger Tea, Water
How I felt: Stomach still not back to normal. Have more energy, but don’t necessarily feel better than I do when I am not doing Whole30.
Day 20:
Breakfast: Homemade Turkey Patties and Sweet Potato Hash
Lunch/Snack: Coconut and Apple Bar, Apple, Almond Butter
Dinner: Steak, plantains, squash, asparagus
After Dinner Snack: Pineapple
What I drank: Water
How I felt: My stomach reacted horribly to the steak meal. I was in a ton of pain and spent most of the night in the bathroom. I don’t know if its the steak itself, as this is the second time I have had a bad reaction after eating steak. Stomach really in a bad state and UC symptoms are flaring badly.
Day 21:
Breakfast: Chicken Apple Sausage, Sweet Potato Hash, mushrooms
Lunch: Stomach was still not feeling great
Dinner: Roasted Cod with a side salad (avocado, olives, mustard vinaigrette)
After Dinner Snack: Cherries and Pineapple
What I drank: Water, decaf coffee, digestive tea
How I felt: Stomach still acting up and in a lot of pain. Really frustrated that the diet isn’t helping my stomach.
Ugh! That sucks that you haven’t felt good during your Whole30. My friend did one hoping to relieve herself of her IBS symptoms and while it definitely helped, she’s still trying to figure out what bothers her tummy. After her Whole30 she gave up nightshades and recently tried FODMAPs. Good luck!
Thanks! I got rid of nightshades and eggs. Will be interesting to find out if they make a difference to how I feel once I add them back in. May try FODMAPs next.
