Day 5 on the Whole30 and it is going fast and not relatively painlessly.  I definitely got new motivation by getting The 30 Day Guide to Paleo Cooking - a great book.  If you think you would like to do a 30-day Paleo challenge, this would be a good book to have for an almost beginner.  Hayley and Bill do provide some basics about Paleo eating but, in my opinion, It Starts with Food is a must to get the full picture.  Then, when you are ready to go, The 30 Day Guide to Paleo Cooking is definitely a good template to follow.  They lay out menus for four weeks, using leftovers from some meals to create others - a great time-saver.  They also give you the complete shopping list for each week's menu.  I am definitely going to be using a lot of their recipes over the next 3+ weeks, so stay tuned.

The Whole30 motivation/check-in email was about cravings and how to tell if your hunger is real hunger or just a craving.  My favourite tip was to imagine eating steamed fish and broccoli - if that sounds good you are hungry - go eat something.  If it doesn't, go do something else to distract yourself.
