Alright guys, I wish I could tell you I finished all 30 days of the Whole 30 Program but unfortunately I had to cut it short. I went strong for about two weeks until my milk supply dropped dramaticly. I tried everything from adding back in oatmeal in the morning to drinking an ungodly amount of water to pumping around the clock. Nothing worked and I could tell my little man wasn’t getting enough to eat. So obviously his needs come before mine and I had to call it quits.
While I was on it I felt sooo good and had a ton of energy. If you’re looking for a great meal plan to cut out sugar and jump start your metabolism, the Whole 30 is definitely for you. I plan on starting it again after I’m done breastfeeding so i’ll let ya know when that is. Even though I’m not currently following the Whole 30 I thought I’d share a few of my favorite recipes below!
Healthy Milkless Shake:
- 1 1/2-2 frozen bananas (more = thicker)
- 1/2-3/4 cup non-dairy milk of choice (unsweetened almond, coconut or cashew milk works great)
- 1-2 T almond butter
- 2 T unsweetened coconut flakes
- cinnamon to taste
Add all ingredients to blender and blend!
Cucumber Salad:
- 1 Persian cucumber
- 1 whole avocado
- 1 medium tomato
- 1-2 hard boiled egg
- meat of choice
- 1 tsp. lemon juice
- pinch of sea salt
chop ingredients and mix together in bowl!
Chocolate Coconut Cashew Balls:
- 1 cup pitted dates
- 1 cup cashews
- 2/3 cups unsweetened coconut flakes
- 3 tbs cocoa powder
Blend ingredients in blender or food processor, make into small balls, and stick in refrigerator for a yummy snack!
There you have it, my absolute favorite Whole 30 approved yum yums. Let me know if you try any of these out or if you want more recommendations! Enjoy!
