What's The Difference?

Being on Whole30 hasn't really been all that different to me. We are eating meals my mom would usually make with one big difference, we don't eat fast-food! I feel so much better. Now when I have gym class and I run for an entire six minutes rather than walking for 30 seconds every minute and 30 seconds. I also don't stay up in my bed as long as I would (when going to bed for the night) before Whole30. All in all I feel great! Some things that have made the biggest difference for me would be giving up dairy. I am allergic to dust (which is great seeing as it is winter time and everything is shut up!) and oak trees. I would usually wake up so stuffy I would be miserable. Throughout my Whole30 experience I wake up not stuffy and am not stuffy going through the day. I have also noticed that when I will be at other peoples homes and have a little bit of dairy I will go home feeling sick. Once I had yogurt at a friends house, and when I got home I felt like my stomach was trying to flatten into a pancake. Although I know we will have dairy again after Whole30 I will probably never eat it the same way. I will have it in moderation. Just have to go through the last three days of this experience and enjoy it, which I know I will :) ~Ella (12 years old)
