I just joined a challenge to eat nothing processed for 8 weeks. I was wondering if anyone had ideas on food choices. I like variety in life so don't want to eat the same foods for 8 weeks. I think I may cheat on this a little and say that I can have skim milk although that is processed if you think about it. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
