Whole30 Week 2 Meal Plan + Grocery List!
image via 40Aprons
Well, I’ve made it to week 2 of my Whole30 Challenge, which I started last week and wrote about here. So far I am feeling really, really good! I’ve always known I feel a lot better on a diet with minimal grains, legumes, dairy, and refined sugars but boy is it ever so apparent after 7 straight days of completely clean eating. Within the first two days of the challenge last week, I immediately felt less bloated than I did when I started last week (hello, finally cooking meals at home and not going out to eat after weeks of travel!). I also noticed that my energy level was pretty consistent throughout the day and I didn’t feel the need to reach for my normal afternoon matcha latte. I’ve always been a really great sleeper and have the magic ability to fall asleep within seconds of my head hitting the pillow, but I have noticed that I feel more rested when I wake up this week which is always an added bonus!
So far, the hardest part has really been making sure I stick with Whole30 when I’m out and about — thank goodness for Sweetgreen and carrying apples with me at all times for times of need! I’m looking forward to Week #2 and since so many of you were interested in what I meal prepped, I figured I’d do it again this week!
