Whole30: Day 1

I am starting a diet called whole30. The Whole30 takes sugars, grains, dairy, and legumes out of the diet. They say it can help with a lot of health issues. I am looking to lower my cholesterol and blood pressure. Both run high in my dad's side of the family. I would rather not have those health issues! I am interested to see how the foods I will be removing affect my body and life. For the whole month I am not allowed to step on a scale. I will be interested to see if my pants will fit better. I have gotten into the bad habbit of soda and sweets. This has led me back to an unwanted weight. My main concern is that I wont be able to stick to it. I pray that I can.
