What to eat on the 24 day challenge

The goal of the 24 day challenge is to start living a healthier lifestyle.  During the challenge, lean meats and other forms of protein, fruits, vegetables, complex carbs, and healthy fats are encouraged while refined sugars, dairy products, junk food, white bread/pasta/rice, whole wheat, and processed foods are avoided all together if possible or eaten in very limited quantities. I came up with a sample meal plan of what to eat during the 24 day challenge (I don't eat seafood so I did not include any seafood meals on this meal plan, but there are plenty of 24 day challenge friendly seafood recipes out there).
