"Thanks @JessFind. I will say, it's definitely a mental game. Since we have company in town, my husband asked me to cook one of our favorite, rarely made meals on Friday that is definitely not Whole30 - Duck Gumbo.  I am planning to make a separate version for myself that is.  Part of my brain is saying, \"It would be so much easier just to cook one version - and riced cauliflower just won't be the same\"; the other part is saying \"Girl, don't you dare start over again\".\n \n\n\n\tDay 3 (Jan. 14)\n \n\n\n\tM1: Coffee w/ Almond Milk + Breakfast Casserole w/ Salsa\n \n\n\n\tM2: Cauliflower Soup (wasn't quite enough by itself but I had to run to Target to pick up a few things so I didn't eat anything else)\n \n\n\n\tSnack: Apple + 2 Paleo Balls + Vital Proteins Lavender Lemon Collagen* \n \n\n\n\tM3: Slow Cooker Pork Roast + Butternut Squash Salad w/ Poppy Seed Dressing (Paleo Running Mama) + fruit salad w/ coconut oil\n \n\n\n\tI've made several recipes from Paleo Running Mama and they've all been really good so far; the salad did not disappoint.\n \n\n\n\tSo Target keeps their collagen in the beauty/makeup area, and one of the things I needed to get was nearby; I happened to notice some clearance labels on a couple of the collagen containers. We typically buy the unflavored kind. My husband likes it in his coffee; I prefer to drink it with water before coffee (because regardless of what he says, I CAN taste it in my coffee....and you don't mess with my coffee). I've been wanting to try some of the flavored versions but since it's a little on the expensive side, and my husband just spent $50 for two of the small unflavored containers, I haven't bought any. At half price and with the Whole30 approved label, Lavender Lemon ended up in my shopping cart. Probably not the one I would have chosen normally, but it was the only one on clearance (which I later read that they've reformulated this flavor for a \"new great taste\" and this is the older one, though still in date, that's likely why it is on clearance). Since I didn't drink any collagen in the morning, I had some with my snack. It was okay, a bit clumpy and little strange - I bet the improved one is good.\n \n\n\n\tAs a small side note, I was very disappointed that the container was only about half full. I'm sure it contained the 9oz as labeled, but why waste that much plastic? Either pack it full or make the container smaller. \n \n\n\n\tAnd another side note: I'm drinking collagen because I am having hair loss issues. It started sometime between the end of my Whole30 round 1 (beginning of October) and Christmas (I can probably narrow it down further to sometime around Thanksgiving). It's one of the things I'm hoping to see improvements on with this round. While I am wondering if the changes in diet could have had a small part in it, the major suspect is a new shampoo I was trying - Paul Mitchell's Tea Tree Special Shampoo. After about three weeks of using it every two to three days, I noticed more and more hair everywhere, when I washed or brushed it or just being stuck to my shirt.  I'd compare it to the same amount I was losing after the birth of my daughter (I used Nioxin shampoo after my son was born which did seem to help); for that reason, it makes me wonder if it might be hormonal also. However, I've also noticed my thumbnails started to peel, which leads me back to the shampoo. I stopped using the shampoo once I noticed the shedding hair increase and went back to an old one I've never had issues with, but this weekend, I decided to start washing it less. I made it 4 days and last night only did a water wash plus hair masque (I'm not willing to forgo conditioning because I think the shampoo was drying out my hair too much). I never thought I'd be testing out the \"no 'poo\" method, but here I am.\n \n\n\n\tSlightly rambling today.  Feeling great this morning.\n "
