    Okay, okay so I said my last post was the “Final Frontier” for Whole30, but I couldn’t help but bask in the glow for one last post on Day 28. Because on Day 28 I’m feeling…pretty great. Sure, it was one helluva rollercoaster (even the second time around), but I’m feeling high as a kite with the end in sight. Also….I’ve apparently turned into Dr. Seuss. I’ll spare you any more rhymes, but I do have a few more recipes up my sleeve, including green (deviled) eggs! Read on for a flurry of new recipes and some final reflections on Whole30.

    Whole30 Recipes

    Eat well, move daily, laugh often, sleep lots and love your body. Repeat for life.

    Is it really that simple? Maybe. At least it feels a heckuva lot simpler on Day 21 of Whole30. Scientists are still arguing whether 21 days is truly the magic number for forming a good habit, but I’m starting to believe in the magic. Meal prep is the norm, I’ve got a roster of MVF’s (most valuable foods) to save the day and the sugar dragons seem to be hibernating for the winter. Sure, I’m still looking forward to tacos in Mexico in 2 weeks, but I’m also not agonizing over my every meal. Hopefully you’re feeling those good habit vibes, but if you’re still looking for some recipes to shake up the last nine days and tips to surviving social outings, you’ve come to the right place! Read on for the dEATs.
