uncured, no-sugar-added bacon, Adele’s Chicken and Apple Sausage, sweet potatoes, eggs, spinach, Frank’s Hot Sauce, La Croix, ground turkey, and plenty of fruits and veggies. Then I went to Whole Foods to pick up some Whole30 approved snacks like Lara Bars (only certain flavors), RX bars, and Tesse Mae’s condiment’s (a must if you love sauces/dressings). I would prep items like turkey burgers, sweet potato fries, and grilled chicken and have them ready for lunches and dinners either at work or at home. I would bring the bars to work as a filling snack during the day. Eating out is one of the hardest parts because you have to be very meticulous about everything that is in your food, which is why I recommend trying to cook as much as possible. You lose the social aspect of eating out and going for a drink with friends, which I would say is one of the biggest downsides of the diet. But, if you’re okay with a club soda and a lime, you can still have fun with your friends on the weekends. The first week was by far the hardest. You do not realize how much sugar you take in, even unknowingly, through your food until you completely cut it out. I had headaches and was extremely fatigued every afternoon. Then something changed. Around day 7, I woke up and felt amazing. It was like an entirely new energy had overcome my body. I no longer craved anything sugar laden or full of bad carbs. Gone were the headaches and fatigue, I’d never had more energy. Throughout the rest of the 30 days I felt so good, I craved my vegetables and proteins. I looked forward to eggs and big spinach salads. Physically, I was changing as well. My body was able to heal from inflammation and my stomach was completely flat. I thinned in the face and my skin was flawless. Although the program is only 30 days, the results last much longer. The biggest problem is that if you cheat once, the cravings do come back. I still crave chocolate chip cookies, and I still love a beer with my friends, but giving my all with the Whole 30 diet has taught me that I can eat well and that it’s more than a diet. I do not restrict myself the way I did during those 30 days, and therefore I do not have the perfectly flat stomach I did this summer. However, I learned how to make much healthier choices and live a healthier lifestyle because of Whole30. Whether it is choosing almond milk over dairy milk or making mashed potatoes from cauliflower, I know what works best for my body and I am able to nourish it accordingly. Going thirty days without alcohol, a sugary treat, or chips and queso may seem like torture for a college student. If you can muster up the willpower to commit for 30 days, it truly can be life changing. However, simply implementing a few small changes from Whole30 into your diet can also be highly beneficial. If you’re craving french fries, cut up a sweet potato, sprinkle with salt and rosemary, and bake it in the oven to make homemade, Whole30 french fries. Bake chicken fingers with almond flour and dip them into a Whole30 approved condiment. If you eat creatively, you will find that this program does not restrict, but improves what you already enjoy eating. “This program is not some diet craze - it is about eating food in its intended way.” 76 <strong>Alice</strong> Spring 2018
S T I C K I T W O R K O U T By Mary Clay Kline This spring, don’t be a couch potato. Instead, get fit while watching your favorite films! Try this tip with movies that are fitness-forward, such as the action-packed 2006 classic Stick It. This movie is full of laughs and angsty teenage jams (here’s looking at you, Fall Out Boy), not to mention a stellar performance from Missy Peregrym, who portrays Haley Graham, the tomboy gymnast comeback queen. While the following workout won’t magically improve your back handspring, it will make you feel good about taking the time to watch a flick. Just be sure to drink plenty of water and spend five to ten minutes stretching after working out. <strong>Alice</strong> Spring 2018 77
