Cleaning up my life

So Friday was a cheat day....hahahaha! I had potato chips, fruit and cinnamon rolls that day. It was awesome!......and a little gut wrenching.......but still awesome! On Saturday, my friend; who is the epitome of "effortlessly skinny" said " I have lost 12 pounds from this eating clean thing I've been doing." At this point I'm not sure where she lost these pounds from, but I was intrigued nonetheless. She said it was a book and I have to read the whole thing first, and prepare before I start. The book is called "The Whole 30" by Melissa Hartwig. So I went home and bought the book and read it cover to cover. Well I downloaded it, but you know. Anyhoo, the book talks about reseting your system, and all of the things it helps. I have decided to undertake this 30 day challenge for a variety of reasons. I have also decided that I will make my family go through it too. Here is why: my 9 yr old is allergic to EVERYTHING from wheat, corn, milk, peanuts, most nuts, all grasses, trees, dusts, fish, and everything else we tested him for. With the exception of codfish and mold. He has no outward symptoms of these allergies except he has difficulty focusing, sleeping, he doesn't really enjoy eating anything, except chicken, and he becomes tired easily. My 3 yr old despite all of his allergy testing coming back negative; has terrible eczema, and scratches those areas until they bleed. My hubby is also allergic to everything, and uses his inhaler multiple times throughout the day, and takes allergy medicine daily, and still can't breathe out of his nose, for who knows how long. The #whole30 hopefully will help all of them. It will help me too, help to boost my energy, clear up my acne, and hopefully help me to end my evil relationship with food. My body is supposed to be a Temple, and right now it feels more like a hungry monster living in a dark scary cave. I will win this battle. The #whole30 book explains that you need to clean out the bad stuff first, if not all than at least most of it. So this week I will be posting alot of food labels, and pictures of recipes that I can eat in this new way of clean, healthy eating. This is my #frinkinfatfight
