I have been reading Melissa Byers’s blog “Byers Gets Diesel” for a while now I’m a HUGE fan. She is a committed Crossfitter and is becoming a master of everything that comes with that i.e. nutrition and functional fitness. Today, she threw down a mind blowing challenge. To some it might not be a big deal but I’m guessing to most it will be a true challenge and like Melissa states it WILL change your life. I don’t know this personally but I do know people who have done it and in thirty days I will be one that will be able to state I’ve done it too. So I’m going to repost some of the blog then you will have to go to her site to see the rest. I recommend checking out http://www.myfitnesspal.com to log your in-take and I recommend “The Paleo Diet for Athletes” for some Paleo information.

Change your life in thirty days

In Part II of my Guide to Eating Dirty, I recommend cheating smart – indulging in those foods that aren’t going to knock you out of energy, wellness and performance commission for days on end. The concept sounds pretty easy, and it is… as long as you know how various food groups like gluten, dairy and legumes affect you. So how do you figure out what foods are okay to cheat with, and what foods will never be worth it?I can tell you where it STARTS... strip out all the crap from your diet and let your body heal and recover from whatever effects those foods may be provoking. What, exactly, does that mean? Super strict, no cheat, by-the-book Paleo for the next 30 days. Cut all the foods that could be kicking you in the crotch without you even knowing it for the next 30 days, and see how that feels. (To be clear – this is NOT a “30 Day Challenge”. This is so much bigger than that. And it's not really even about cheating. I kind of tricked you there. I'm not sorry. Read on, please.)
