As many of you know I have started on my goals for 2017 right away! I’ve restarted BBG and decided to do Whole 30 again! I’m not even going to lie it’s pretty tough. With everyday life and of course any disasters that may come with it sometimes you want to break down and just give up. Don’t! I promise if you do you will only feel better for maybe 5 minutes and then realize you just let everything you’ve been working for go! It sucks trust me!
Anyways so some people who have no idea what BBG or Whole 30 is. Well luckily for you I’m here to help explain one of those today! So, Whole 30 is all about a body reset. I decided to do this now because the holidays kind of through me for a loop (I’m sorry I just couldn’t help it!). You aren’t allowed to eat certain things (carbs, sugar, the usual) but are able to eat lots of options! BTW this is not a diet! Consider it a start to a lifestyle change. 🙂 Side note I also purchased FitTea because along with resetting I want to detox! (I may be a little crazy I know!) This is my second time doing it and I highly recommend it! Yes, you will have your lows but you also have amazing highs! At least try it and see if it’s something you like!
So now onto the grocery list! This is what I usually buy and it’s all good for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (also snacks!).
Veggies Fruit Protein
Spinach Lemons Chicken legs
Carrots Limes Chicken breast
Sweet Potatoes Apples Ground Turkey (LOTS!)
Broccoli Bananas Eggs
Onions Strawberries Chicken Sausage
Green Beans Blueberries Steak
Garlic
Asparagus
Fats Drinks Other
Extra Virgin Olive Oil Water Balsamic Vinegar
Ghee (Clarified Butter) Sparkling Water Chicken Broth
Coconut Oil Almond Milk Salt
Almond Butter Coconut Milk Pepper
Avocados (LOTS!) Coffee Cinnamon
Cashews Tea Paprika
Pecans Thyme
Pistachios Canned Tuna/Chicken
Larabar
I hope this shopping list helps and that many of you give Whole 30 a try! I’ll link the book here if anyone is interested in buying it! Let me know if you’ve tried Whole 30 and if you haven’t what are somethings that you have done to give your body a full reset!
Have a great hump day!
XOXO,
Silvia M.

I tried Whole30 once a few years ago and while it was hard, I really did feel better! I think you’re totally right, it’s not a diet – it’s the start of a lifestyle change!
Silvia says
This is the 2nd time I’m doing it and I love it!
Summer Telban (@SummerTelban) says
Thank you for giving more information on the Whole 30! I need to do a cleanse or reset soon, so it was helpful!
Silvia says
Sure! I’m glad it helped.
Dawn McAlexander says
It sounds like a pretty good plan. I noticed that chicken breasts were on your list. When I was trying to lose weight, eating chicken breasts and salads seem to work the best for me.
Silvia says
That’s a great combo!
robin masshole mommy says
I have been hearing all kinds of good things about Whole 30, but I wasn’t sure what it was all about. I learned a ton here today.
Silvia says
I’m so happy it helped!
fairyprincessjord says
I’ve heard great things about Whole 30, changing your lifestyle is always way more successful and positive than a diet (:
Silvia says
Exactly and thats why I do it!
Ashley Mason says
I’ve heard of Whole 30 but have never tried it. One of my goals for 2017 is to eat healthier so I’m definitely going to look more into this!
Silvia says
Yes thats exactly why I like it!
Karen Yannacio Morse says
I could totally use a body reset! Big time! I have heard about the Whole 30 but havent really researched it much more than that. I’ll take a peek at whats involved!
Amanda says
I’ve heard so many good things about the Whole30 but have yet to try it! Keep up the great work girly!! <3
Silvia says
Thank you!
Jenny says
I’ve heard about this but never had the guts to try it lol. maybe some day.
Silvia says
You totally should it’s amazing!
Divya @ Eat. Teach. Blog. says
I’ve done Whole 30 before; it felt really good, but it’s definitely not something I can do long-term. I have a hard time eliminating foods from my diet!
Silvia says
Yeah I can see that. I think slowly adding in is a great way to not make it feel so painful at least for me!
kitstanwood says
I’ve been trying to get back into meal prepping so I’ll definitely take a look into this!!! It’s a great list . Imma try to cook some new veggies I haven’t before!
Silvia says
That sounds like a perfect plan!
Anna says
Ooh, I definitely couldn’t do the Whole 30! I’m a junk food fiend! Good luck with it though!

Silvia says
Haha thank you!
Annette Dattilo says
I have been hearing about Whole 30 everywhere. Thank you for the info.
Silvia says
No problem!
Heather L. says
I like how you really focused on what you can have vs what you can’t have with Whole 30. I’m glad it works for you. I found that I’m one of the few people who doesn’t do well on low carb eating plans. It apparently runs in the family as my Dad also feels ill on them. I do like many of the aspects of Whole 30 as it helps you adjust to not eating processed foods which is huge. Good luck!
Silvia says
Thank you so much! I hope you find something that works for you!
Alix Maza says
This is so interesting! Way to get the year started on the right foot.

Thanks!
Terri Steffes says
The Whole 30 is big around here and has been for ages. It is a good thing to do and I hear it can entirely reset your taste buds.
Silvia says
Yeah it definitely does!
Chloe says
I 100% believe a good cleanse is a great way to start a healthy lifestyle! Good luck!
Silvia says
Thank you and I totally agree with you.
Cynthia @craftoflaughter says
I considered the whole 30 but decided that it was not possible unless I wanted to cook separately for the family who wasnt interested. I try to eat as clean as possible though
Silvia says
Oh I totally understand! It’s hard if others living with you are on a different plan.
Debra says
The whole 30 looks so hard but the benefits would be so worth it. Can I really be disciplined enough to do it? I don’t know?
Silvia says
Haha you never know until you try!
Maegan Clark says
I’m so impressed! The Whole30 seems so intimidating to me!
Silvia says
It isn’t to bad really haha! Thank you!
Kiwi says
Thank you for explaining. I saw some people talking about Whole 30 but I did assume it was another diet. I am glad to know its just a new way to eat but they still have plenty of options!
Silvia says
No problem! 🙂
meximoments says
Sounds like a great and healthy way to cleanse your body & start over. I really need to try something new.
Silvia says
I hope you are able to find something new!
Jeanine Macintosh says
I know quite a few people who have done whole 30 I myself couldn’t but wish I could. I just dont like enough stuff to sustain a diet like this. I wish, it looks great.
Silvia says
Thank you! I hope you are able to find something just as great for you!
Logan says
This is so interesting! I never knew what Whole30 was exactly but hear about it all the time! Thank you for including a grocery list! So convenient!
Silvia says
No problem! I’m glad it helps! 🙂
annalisanuttall says
Thank you for the explanation. I wish we have something like this here in the uk.
Silvia says
No problem and Amazon might sell a kindle version of the book!
Kecia | Online Income Mom says
I have read up on Whole 30 but haven’t given it a try. I need to….I have a matron of honor dress to wear in 3 months!
Silvia says
Oh my congrats! Such an honor!
Brittany says
I’ve heard so much about Whole 30 but I never really knew what it was. Thanks so much for explaining it. It seems like a great way to make a lifestyle change that will actually make a difference.
Silvia says
Sure and it really does! Even though I kind of went back and ate things I wasn’t suppose to it wasn’t all the time or didn’t have cravings for such things anymore.
Catherine Murton says
Perfect timing. I was just trying to look into Whole30 yesterday and got overwhelmed and quit. Your list is going to make it easy for me to stick to. The no sugar thing will suck for a few days until I adjust to it but I’m glad to see coffee still makes the cut!
Silvia says
Yes I know I would die without coffee!
Sydney Power says
I have seen this pop up everywhere! I would love to try it!
Silvia says
You should its amazing!
reesann723 says
While the whole30 is HARD, I felt and looked my absolute best ever in my life when I did it!!!! I really need to do it again!
Silvia says
Me too! That’s why I decided to try again!
almostindianwife says
Girl I’ve been looking for a list like this! I just bought a whole 30 cookbook and am dying to do it! My big goal this year is to get my family healthy!
Silvia says
That is such a great goal good luck!
adriana says
This is awesome! I’ve always considered Whole 30 – it seems like an awesome program!
Silvia says
It’s really good I would highly suggest it!
Megan mccoig says
I’ve never heard of this. The past few weeks I’ve changed up my diet and exercise routine and am seeing it more like a lifestyle change to. Great post!
Silvia says
Thank you! That sounds like a lifestyle change and I’m glad it’s working for you!
Jazz says
This is a great list, Syliva! I am going to send this to my sorority sister who is currently doing Whole 30.
Silvia says
Yay I hope it helps her!
Debbie-jean Lemonte says
I need to try this. I’ve been trying to get my life and grocery list together. This is definitely going to help.
Silvia says
Yay! I’m glad it will help you!
terricairns says
This sounds like a healthy change. Its great to try to start the new year in a new mindset, especially after the holidays when we tend to eat more than we usually would.
Silvia says
I know my holidays were filled with lots of yummy things but it’s time to restart my eating habits.
macarenaferr says
I’ve been dying to try Whole 30! Thanks for sharing this. 🙂

No problem good luck on your journey!
stylesprinter says
It’s so funny but we’ve meet our friends last night and they just started the Whole 30 diet. I was impressed how radiant their skin looks after just 2 weeks on the diet!
Silvia says
That’s amazing!
rosepetalsinthesea says
While it wouldn’t go with my vegetarian (mostly vegan) diet, I have heard so many people have much success with this diet plan. This post will benefit many of those who are curious about this diet! 🙂 – HilLesha
hannahcstark says
This sounds really interesting! I have never heard of it before. I might try it out:)
xoxo, Hannah
Silvia says
It’s really good! Good luck on your journey!
Adaleta Avdić says
I’ve noticed a lot of people doing the Whole 30 challenge, and I finally know what IT IS now that I’ve read your post. This looks interesting. We’re also trying to incorporate more juice, and less dairy and meat! xx Adaleta Avdic
Carolyn says
I have been doing The Shred and love it. I have several friends that love the Whole 30.
Silvia says
Oh I will have to look into it I’ve never heard of it.
Jessica says
Seems interesting and glad you enjoy doing it. I’m not even going to pretend I’m going to. My By resolution is actually to eat more small meals but not limiting any types a food that I eat I’m already quite limited on what I can eat due to stomach problems and feel I should enjoy my meals (& I’m a big fan of carbs and sugar)
Silvia says
That’s great! After the Whole 30 my plan is also to eat smaller meals.
Kristin @ The Blush Blonde says
This is awesome! Good luck with both!
