So, friends. I survived my first 21 Day Sugar Detox. It was rough, I won’t lie. I *may* have eaten an ice cream sandwich on day 22 just because I could. I also ate a metric ton (okay, more like a pound…) of cheese this weekend. I wish I was exaggerating. I have a problem. I need to quit cheese. Cold turkey. Like an addict giving up the smack.

After finishing off the 21DSD, I felt GOOD. Really GOOD. It made me want to conquer the next big challenge that’s been on my mind. A Whole30.

So with that, I hereby announce that I will be beginning a Whole30 on June 1! This program promises to change your life in 30 days. I don’t think it will make me a profoundly better human being, but I do hope that this nutritional reset will bring me back to the basics and stop thinking about crap food.  Now, if I could go a month without eating cheese I would call that life-changing.

I’m more or less a slacker-paleo, to tell you the truth! I’m scared. No dairy. No coffee cream. To those who have to interact with me on a daily basis this also means no lattes. I’m sorry, in advance. That coffee will be consumed black. I hear that once you go black you never go back, or something…

I’ve finally had a chance to read through the entire Whole30 Success Guide. Amazing stuff. You should read it. Do you want to? Great! Because I’m giving away a FREE copy of the Whole30 Success Guide. This amazing e-book is full of resources to kick start your nutritional re-set with meal planning tips, recipes, FAQs, a meal plan and even more goodness. This e-book is valued at $39 USD! If you want to learn more about the Whole30 check out the info over at Whole9life.com. They’ve also got a book coming out very soon that I’m hoping maybe I will get for my birthday!

Now, the important part. How can I enter? Each of the following actions will gain you ONE entry into the giveaway.

1. Leave a comment on the blog. If you choose this way to enter, make sure I have some way of contacting you – a link to your blog, email, twitter – anything!

2. Like What This Foodie Eats on Facebook, if you haven’t already. Either share a post from WTFE on your own wall – make sure to tag!) or leave a comment on the WTFE wall telling me that you’d like to win!

3. Follow WhatThisFoodieEats on Twitter and retweet an announcement about the giveaway!

You can enter multiple times. i.e. Leaving a blog comment, a wall post, and a retweet will gain you three entries. Spamming the wall with 20 posts will not get you twenty entries, it will just piss me off.

BONUS: Tell a friend to Like WhatThisFoodieEats on Facebook. Tell your friend to leave a comment on the wall saying that you referred them. You’ll both win a bonus entry. If you refer five friends and they all post saying you referred them, you will get five entries, cause I’m generous like that.

The contest will be open until May 30, 2012, 11:59pm EST. The winner will be announced on the blog and on our Facebook page on June 1, 2012!
