Whole 30 Week 4 Recap and ResultsWe officially made it through the Whole 30! Overall this has been a great experience. I have been able to tame my raging sweet tooth (the sugar dragon) and in the process lost five pounds. I would highly recommend the Whole 30 to anyone who wants to eat healthier but doesn’t know where to start. It has helped me be more aware of what we are eating and to pay attention to the ingredients on all those nutrition labels.

We had some really great meals this last week! My top three favorites were the Bunless Burgers with Sweet Potato Chips, Grilled Chicken and the Nachos. For the Grilled Chicken, Matt actually looked up a Copy Cat Carraba’s Italian Grill (one of our favorite restaurants) recipe and just modified it to fit the Whole 30 requirements. It was amazing.

Here is what we’ve been eating on our last week of the Whole 30:

We didn’t have anything special on our last night of the Whole 30. I think we’ll grill some steaks this weekend and celebrate with a glass of red wine. I do plan to continue eating this way but I’ll probably add back in a little cheese and black beans. There is an entire reintroduction schedule so we’ll try to follow that as closely as possible. Even with the Super Bowl coming up, we plan to eat our Whole 30 Nachos from Day 25 and a plate of the yummy Apple Nachos.

Here are a few things we learned during the last week:
  • We actually do like Brussels Sprouts. It is nice to have another veggie to throw into the rotation now.
  • The Organic Grass Fed Ground Beef from Aldi is really good and only $4.99 per pound.
  • It is easier to make a whole batch of Homemade Taco Seasoning instead of just making a little for each meal.
  • I definitely went over my grocery budget for the month, but think I could do better on the next round!

Here are a few of our favorite products this week!

RX Bars
That's It Bars
Aldi Ground Beef
Organic Grass Fed Ground Beef from Aldi – Only $4.99 per pound!

I hope this series has been helpful for anyone thinking about or doing the Whole 30! If you have any questions about anything we did, please feel free to ask.
