The Whole30 is "designed to change your life in 30 days. Think of it as a short-term nutritional reset, designed to help you restore a healthy metabolism, heal your digestive tract, calm systemic inflammation and put an end to unhealthy cravings, habits, and relationships with food. Since 2009, thousands of people have used our program as a jump-start to changing the way they eat for the rest of their lives. To get started on your Whole30 program, check out our new Whole30 Success Guide, the program details and real-life testimonials below" (cited from http://whole9life.com/category/whole-30/).

For various reasons, I have decided to complete a whole30. Join me in my adventure as I document what I eat, how I feel, and the impact of the Whole30 on my life. Think of this as an N = 1 experiment.

What can I eat?

Eat real food – meat, seafood, eggs, tons of vegetables, some fruit, and plenty of good fats from fruits, oils, nuts and seeds.

What can't I eat?
1. Sugar of any kind- including artificial sugar (e.g., stevia)
2. Alcohol
3. Grains
4. Legumes
5. Dairy
6. White potatoes

Since I eat primal 80% of the time, this shouldn't be a huge departure. I'd like to see what kind of results I can get from eating this way for 30 days.
