Elimination Diet _ Requesting thoughts / offering set of recipes.

I am starting a health kick, trying to get into better habits.

I'll be 40 next summer. I weigh between 200-215, depending. Body fat percentage is around 34%, per DEXA scan. "Skinny fat..."

My goal is to run a marathon and bench my body weight.

I am seeing a functional medicine Doc and his nutritionist put me on the following meal plan.

It starts off with a [to me] fairly intense elimination diet... the goal is to give the body a chance to exist and "breathe" on fairly basic food stuffs, eliminate all processed foods, and all inflammatories. After a month of this, foods will be added back into the general diet, slowly and methodically to see my body's reaction.

I am curious to see if any health nuts in here care to vet this diet.... ???

It honestly seems a little daunting.
