30 Days

Don’t know if you have all watched the show 30 Days but it gave me an idea for an experiment on myself.
Here goes.
For 30 Days I would have to consume only nutritious foods, no alcohol & at least 1 hour of exercise every day. I would test my resting heart-rate and body fat on day 1 and day 30 to compare. Have to consume at least 1 gallon of water a day (shouldn’t be hard with how much I consume anyways). The thing is that I also lift weights about 4 days a week. Should I consider my weightlifting (heavy weight low reps) part of that 1 hour of exercise or should I say 1 hour of cardio regardless of gym? Here are the foods I am thinking I could eat and only eat:
Whole Wheat Bread
Lean meats (Beef, Chicken, Tuna)
Veggies and Fruits (bananas)
Milk
Eggs
Light Mayonnaise
Light Salad Dressing
Gatorade (when biking)
Water, Water, Water


Pretty much what I already eat minus alcohol and the occasional burger & icecream. Am I missing anything I should be eating

What do you guys think I should do to make this even better. Any and all ideas and opinions are appreciated. Wish me luck. Not having beer will definitely be the hardest part.

Thanks!
