Easy Whole30 Meal Plan Week 2
Ready for Whole30 meal plan week 2? Congrats! You are already on your second week of Whole30. It’s not always easy during a round but having a plan helps. Meal planning is a must for the Whole 30.
At the beginning of the week make a plan for your 3 meals a day. You may be more likely to give up when you’re hangry! But, when you plan out your meals and your fed, you’ll be less likely to give up.
Meal Prep
Meal Prep saves time. It’s convenient when you’re standing in the kitchen and you are starving. But you have nothing ready for dinner.
Take some time at the beginning of your week to meal prep. Get some ideas for what to prep here, Simple Whole30 Meal Planning Week 1.
Prep Parts of Your Meals
Instead of cooking entire meals, take some time on your day off to prep parts of your meals. This makes it a lot easier when it’s time to cook each day.
Roast a lot of veggies and store them in a container to use throughout the week. It is a lot easier than trying to cook a different veggie every night.
Breakfast
For breakfast, I like to make an egg casserole or frittata that I can warm up and eat during the week.
Good ones to try:
- Whole30 Breakfast Casserole from 40 Aprons
- Sausage Tomato Basil Frittata from Paleo Running Momma
Try making one or both of these on your meal prep day. Depending on how many people you have to feed.
I’m the type of person who can eat the same thing over and over again. But if you are getting sick of eggs you don’t have to eat breakfast type foods for breakfast. Instead of thinking about your meals like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Think of them as meal 1, meal 2, and meal 3.
So if you want to have the leftovers from your dinner last night for breakfast, then go for it.
Lunch
I prefer to keep my lunches simple so salads or leftovers are good options. For salads have proteins cooked and ready to go. Such as chicken and hard-boiled eggs. Also, prep some veggies for your salads. Wash and cut up lettuce, cucumber, and tomatoes.

Whole30 Timeline Week 2
The first week of Whole 30 is the hangover. The first week your body was detoxing from the bad for you foods. You will still feel terrible for the first half of the second week. But by the end of the second week, you should start feeling a lot better.
Here is What to Expect
Days 8 to 9 your pants might feel tighter. If it is harder to button your pants don’t freak out. Your gut is getting used to your new way of eating. It is adjusting and this phase should pass.
Days 10 to 11 are known as the hardest days. The excitement of the new program is fading away. You may be tired of all the cooking. And thinking about what you can and can’t eat.
You might be missing your old routines. Such as dessert after dinner. But you have to push yourself through these days and know that the Whole30 is worth it.
Days 12 to 15 are when you start to feel better. But you may start to have weird dreams. The Whole30 book mentions this and it’s so weird because it’s true. You start dreaming about off-plan foods.
I always dream about eating a slice of cake or indulging in a pint of ice cream. And in my dream, I felt so guild that I ate those foods. I’m relieved when I wake up and realize it was only a dream.
I never dream about food. So it’s weird that I do when I’m on a round of Whole30. But like clockwork, the dreams always come!
Make Life Easier
Meal planning is all about convenience. It lets you know exactly what you will be eating each day of the week. Without worrying about it or wondering if you have the right ingredients.Which is great for Whole30 because the rules are strict! Also, it makes it easier to know that your meals are following the Whole30 plan.
