This past weekend was urrrr not too great for eating healthy. Lets just put it that way. I really want to challenge myself this month, and try to "learn" healthier, cleaner eating habits. I have done pretty well so far. I no longer crave chips,sweets (besides chocolate) etc....So those of you that eat "clean", can you give me an idea of what you eat everyday? I know the obvious, fruit and veggies. But on a day I work out I eat up to 1800 calories, so I am curious to see how ya'll can eat that many cals eating clean!!!

Well , clean for me , means this:
1. no dipp fried foods
2. no soft drinks -
3. no alchool- if you want a drink , get a glass of a good wine (no hard stuff )
4.as meat , only fish and sea food
Yeah , I ocasionally eat them ( ones per month or less).
The way that works for me is this : no " empty calories" , if I put some food in my body , I expect to do me some good ( vitamins , minerals , proteins , something). I do not go extreme : if I am at a party , I will try stuff ( less the meat) in moderation.
I think balance is the word for clean eating . Oh , yeah , I try not to eat out . I cook my own food I can't afford good restaurants so .....I preffer to eat my food.
Sometimes is kind of weird:) We went out for shopping and we stopped at Walmart . My husband was hungry so he had McDonald's . I went into Walmart and I got low fat yogurt and crakers( whole grains) I got 300 cals for my meal . he got 1000!
He has a bigggggg tummy . I don't:))
