    I try to mainly focus on eating a clean, plant based diet. I buy lots of produce, lemons, apples, bananas, strawberries, dates, watermelon, blueberries, blackberries, mangos and whatever produce is on sale for that week. For dinner I eat a big, green salad with lots of veggies. Other things I buy, soy milk coffee creamer, coffee, natural granola, yogurt, eggs, almond milk, rice, coconut oil, kind and Laura bars.

    Hope that helps!
