Hello everyone! I've been eating clean for 3 months (on the Jamie Eason program) and am excited that it changed my life. I finished the program yesterday and went and ate Thai food and ice cream for the first time. And I realized I want to keep going. None of my current MFP friends eat clean and I was hoping to add some friends to get ideas from on eating clean. Starting next week I will be doing James Wilson's program which also involves alot of clean eating.

Thank you so much :)

    Congratulations on your weight loss! That is amazing! I try my best to eat clean. I never eat junk food and stay away from white flour, refined sugar, etc. I follow Tosca Reno's Eating CLean guide. I'd like to be your friend!

    I'm a clean eater as well. Haven't heard of this program that you're doing but it sounds great. My philosophy is "if your Grandma wouldn't recognize it as food, don't eat it." I try and eat organic as much as possible and cook everything from scratch. Add me as friend if you like!

    I am a clean eather (thank you Tosca Reno!) and it's changed my life! But also, it's so hard that my friends or husband don't. They are like, 'Are you still on that diet?' and I'm like.... ummm no this is just how I eat...

    Good For You! I bought all of Tosca's books and it literally took me 3 years to finally make the commit to "Eat Clean" and with that came all the health benefits. Not only did I loose 20+ lbs, my stomach issues have disappeared and my energy levels are awesome. I find when I do consume processed foods, I pay for it dearly. It's become a way of life for me and I no longer have any symptoms of food anxiety and I don't feel like I'm on a "diet". I'll be 40 in a few months and I'm constantly told I don't look any older then 33. I attribute it to my healthy lifestyle! Congrads to you for sticking to your guns on this!

    Hey All!

    I am a clean eater too!!! I love clean eating. I have all of Tosca Reno's cookbooks as well as the Best of Clean Eating cookbooks. I do a lot of cooking with super foods to (hemp, chia, goji, acai, maca, etc).

    I always preached clean eating but never truly practiced what i preached. Now i am. I have already lost 35 lbs and notice an amazing difference in my skin, hair, nails, energy levels, digestion, etc. Granted, i workout hard as well, but i attribute most of my success to clean eating. I have now found when i eat anything processed or not clean, i actually get physically sick! It's amazing how our bodies adapt.

    I love the saying, "if your food can go bad, it's good for you; if it can't go bad,it's bad for you."

    Anyone can add me. I would love to have clean eating friends!!!

    I'm trying to eat clean and I've also started Jamie Eason's Live Fit 12 week program which is clean eating along with heavy weight lifting. This is day 3 for me. I have 50 pounds to lose and I'm hoping that this is going to be my answer. I'm supposed to up my calories, but I'm having a hard time eating them all (never thought I'd say that)! I would love to have more clean eating friends. I need as much support I can get. Hard to eat clean when your husband and daughter don't want to eat the same way.

    Hey everyone! I am just getting started with this 'clean eating' thing. I am on a weight-loss mission, but I don't want to be on a diet, I want to make a lifestyle change that I can maintain forever! I have a few good friends who preach clean eating, and I am really trying my best to make this a part of my life. Please feel free to add me - I might have lots of questions until I get the hang of this, but I would appreciate to give and receive some support, encouragement, recipes, ideas, etc...

    I will have to check out the books that were mentioned in previous posts!

    Hi! Im a mother of 3 and Ive been doing my best to eat clean since February. Although I do struggle from time to time I still try my best and its not easy when Im the only one that eats clean in my family. So, having friends on MFP to motivate you and give you new food ideas is always helpful! I could use many more clean eating friends. Feel free to add me:)
