A Physician’s Whole 30 – BOOM! Day 30 “The End”

That’s right folks…BOOM!  Great day today, almost like a celebration.  A day to reflect on all the hard work, the sacrifice, the dedication, and the fun I had on this Whole 30.  It’s my 3rd, and I am planning it to be my last.  I feel I’ve learned what I need to learn from the Whole 30, and in fact I will be doing a follow up video on what I have learned throughout the three separate 30 day periods in the next week or two.

Today’s video includes the standard discussion on how today went, my challenges, my HTOD which today is a LIFE Tip of the Day!, and of coarse what I ate today complete with pictures!

What a journey, and I promise to get out a video soon on what I learned and what I see as the key takeaways from the Whole 30 Challenge.  If you have not yet, check out my post after my INITIAL WHOLE 30 which was actually featured on WordPress.com’s FRESHLY PRESSED section! It’s a journey through each separate Whole 30, and I want to take some time to get my thoughts together before making the video.

I plan on getting more active on the blog soon enough, but quite frankly I have 4 months to study for my Internal Medicine Board Re-Certification Exam so I won’t have as much time as I would like.  That said, I will try to post something Paleo related every week or two if possible.  All along, please stay tuned to my YouTube channel for more fun videos on any number of things I love to do!

Thanks so much for watching, and I pray YOU start YOUR Whole 30 soon!

A Physician’s Whole 30 – Day 27 “You’ve Got a Friend”

Hey everyone, hope your day was a great as ours was!  Got our Motorhome back from the shop and was able to get some maintenance done on it for our next two weekends of camping!  Ready to hit the road 🙂

Today’s video discusses how my day went, a challenge I faced, our HTOD, and of course detailed info and pictures on what I ate.  I hope you have seen that eating Whole 30 does not have to be hard, complicated, and certainly not dull.

Ever skimp on your veggie intake?  I used to and learned my lesson.  That’s what today’s HTOD is all about!

Hang in there, only THREE DAYS LEFT!

A Physician’s Whole 30 – Day 26 “If It Makes You Happy”

So do diet’s work?  I mean really, do they?

Today’s HTOD addresses why they don’t, and how to stay away form the diet trap.  I also of course discuss how my day went, the challenges I faced, and what I ate.

I can’t emphasize enough to everyone how dangerous the next few days can be as we are so close, you are more likely to let your guard down the closer we get to the finish line!  Stay with it!

A Physician’s Whole 30 – Day 24 “Comfortable”

Greetings everyone! Another day down!

By this time in the Whole 30 you may just feel a bit too comfortable, and that can be a danger.  Stay with it, finish the task, you will regret not doing so!

Today’s video covers how the day went, challenges I faced, my HTOD, and of course everything we ate today!

I cook every night at the house after working a full 9-10 hour day.  If I can, you can!  The easiest thing to do is make excuses, so just don’t do it!  Instead, change your life one meal, one day at a time…

A Physician’s Whole 30 – Day 23 “Take it Easy”

Alright guys, one week left in this bad boy!  I had a GREAT day, likely mainly due to that I was off and got to spend some much needed time with my wife.  I love lazy mornings with my girl 🙂

Standard video including how the day went, challenges I faced, the HTOD, and of course what we ate!

CAUTION in this last week as many Whole 30’s have been lost in the last week simply due to laziness and lack of focus.  You can do this, you will HATE yourself if you don’t see it through 🙂
