Like I explained last week, you are free to choose whatever eating plan you would like for the spring challenge. The only requirement is that you post everything you eat or drink to the comments of the daily posts.
We highly recommend Whole9's guidelines.
Whether you decide to do a Whole30 or not, you should definitely stick to "Real" foods. Stay away from stuff in packages. Something along the lines of: lean animal proteins, lots of vegetables of as many different varieties as possible, little to no starches, a few nuts and seeds, and no sugar in any form, real or artificial. If you stick with that you will see great improvements in the next month. Whole9's Whole30 is a lot more strict than that, and includes absolutely no chewing gum, soy, legumes, dairy, sugar, real or artificial, etc... If you do a Whole30 that is great and the benefits are incredible, but there is no such thing as a "Whole30 except for 'fill in the blank'". You are either doing a Whole30 or you aren't.
Some good recipe sites that specialize in Whole30 compatible foods:
- Whole9's Steal This Meal Series
- The Clothes Make the Girl
- NomNomPaleo
- Whole Life Eating
- The Foodee Project (Whole30 Approved Link near the top)
I would highly recommend adding those to your favorites and checking them out from time to time. Melissa Hartwig of Whole9 has a similar list of sites here: http://forum.whole9life.com/topic/10-whole30-friendly-recipe-sites/
