I tend to think of myself as having little patience. Thankfully, this has changed quite a bit since I’ve had Sophie but it still holds true to certain aspects of my life. We’re currently on week 3 of Whole30 but have decided to extend it to 60 days because of the success we’re having with the program. For the most part, I’m in love with the program. I am feeling more energized, which leads to more running and better sleeping. I haven’t had a hard time with cravings other than being at parties where there’s tasty desserts and cocktails. Sometimes though, I just need to remind myself to be patient. I’m not going to be a size 8 in 3 weeks. There would be something seriously wrong in that case. I encourage you to remember to be patient if you’re dealing with change as well, whether it be a new job, kids going back to school or a new hair cut you can’t wait to grow out. 😉

Very wise words! Glad to hear you’re having such a good experience with Whole30. As soon as I’m done nursing and we finish this move-that-will-not-end, I’ve been thinking about giving it a try. I’m sure my husband will NOT be on board though… which will make it a lot more difficult. Hmm…
Shelly says
Great luck Sarah! Honestly, I’m not strong willed enough to do it on my own!
Mrs.AOK says
Good for you sticking to the Whole 30 or 60!! I’m trying to remain patient…. really I am.
XOXO

🙂 I think we’re born stubborn but I do think patience can be learned. x
Ana Lynn says
Patience? What’s that? Haha, on a serious note kudos to you for sticking to it! Frank and I both impatient but our son trumps that and makes us look like the most patient people on Earth!
Shelly says
Haha! I’m sure that you’ve both learned to be a bit more patient because of him!
