Looking for supporters! Starting Friday I am going to start with clean eating instead of the "anything I want as long as I am under calorie goal"diet! I am 22 and looking to lose about 80 pounds! Needing supporters :) Any and all friends who are active please add me!

    Doing what you said may make you feel better and have more energy, which is a good thing, but as far as weight loss is concerned there will be no difference, if the caloric intake is the same.

    I have heard of clean eating i know i may sound stupid what exactly is "clean eating:

    My concept of clean eating is consuming high quality food in reasonable portions. By high quality, I mean having high nutritional content as well as high food integrity standards (organic, natural, and or minimally processed / unprocessed). Striving toward these standards is the goal, even though it is understood that eating clean 100% (or even 80-90%) of the time is generally impossible

    I find that a slight lemony after taste works best for the foods I clean.

    ok then In allready do that! lol I wasnt sure if i was missing something, thank you.
    I think as long as you eat healthy and have a balance of really great and nutritious food to a low bad food your still gonna loose weight as long as you do it in moderation,
    people who never eat chocolate or never eat carbs will eventually splurge i would if i had to give it all up.

    hope you have good luck with this, i eat highly nutritious food never eat processed food other than cheese, and cook all meals im not a fastfooder but i enjoy food, healthy and not so healthy :)
