Check-In:

The last two days seemed to have gone by so quickly.  Yesterday I was sitting with my granddaughters playing Qwirkle and today I am home looking at a pile of mail and an empty refrigerator. My plane flight was delayed yesterday and I didn't get home until nearly midnight.  Making the Whole30 a priority has been my goal and continuing to eating clean.  I missed breakfast this morning because there was nothing at all to eat.  After unpacking and getting a bit reacclimatized I headed to the health food and grocery store.  It is such a stark contract in resources between the abundant Seattle area and the high desert of California.  As much as I try to accept the reality of where I live, it is hard.  The grocery store where I shop has only a small organic section and a few organic meats choices.  But, thankfully I have that.  The closest Whole Foods or Trader Joe's is over an hour away. Tomorrow is the Farmer's Market and I will head there to see what I can find.  It's time to fill up the refrigerator with lots of fresh fruit and veggies!

I am feeling good, nearly back to normal after the histamine attack. But I am still aware that I have to make different food choices. Since I am starting with a clean slate and empty refrigerator it is going to make it far easier.  On Day 25 I feel like I am just getting warmed up and I've decided to go beyond the 30 for at least another 15 days.  It seems like I am getting a better understanding of my body and my food sensitivities. It's been an interesting 25 days! 

Hope you are all doing well and figuring out what you plan to do next.
