    alright... so i was about ready to give up on eating clean because i was feeling sick, dizzy, and lethargic... along with being super hungry all day... until i posted my symptoms as my status and got some very insightful information from my MFPs!! Someone pointed out that all i was eating in the morning were carbs... no protein... and my body was digesting these carbs so fast without having the protein to digest along with it thus causing my symptoms. previously i had been eating a luna bar for breakfast and feeling fine and energized all day... soooo... tomorrow i am going to have a whole wheat tortilla, almond butter and strawberry wrap for breakfast as a way to start my CLEAN day out right!! i also plan to swap my Kashi cookie with a lara bar on my morning break.

    i understand that oatmeal or eggs are the best "Clean" breakfast choices... but that would involve me getting up earlier to have a sit down breakfast... i usually eat breakfast in the car on the way to work...

    Msssmiles you need to get an omelet maker from walgreens ($5) or walmart (dont know their price) and a microwavable bowl and buy your oatmeal and premix it in ziploc bags for 5 days and mix your omelet ingredients for 5 days in small containers, this way you will have 2 weeks worth of breakfast after one days work, then in the AM as soon as you get up, go plug in the omelet maker and spray it, crack two eggs and mix ingredients and pour yoru omelets ( 2 eggs make 2 omelets in mine) and then go brush shower and do whatever for 8-10 min. come back unplug and take out the pan breakfast is ready to go with you in the car! as for oatmeal pour in bowl put milk in it and put in microwave for one minute and its ready to eat in the car on the way, just remember to make it thck and not thin for riding purposes!

    Hey everyone! How is the eating clean going? For me, it's going very well so far. I notice big changes in my body, especially in regards to the sugar I think!

    I think we should do a mini-challenge soon to keep us motivated! Either me or misssmiles will report back soon with the details!

    Hey everyone, how's the clean eating going?

    I've veered off track for a few days and really need to get back on track with my eating clean! I felt amazing when I was doing it really purposefully and right. So today is the day I get back on track. :smile:

    i was incredibly disorganized last night and this morning... and didn't have time to pack a lunch... so i had a lean cuisine... yuck... and that bad decision led to pre packaged dinner too... yuck... may this be a lesson on organization for everyone!

    Yeah, it is tough! Eating clean requires a lot of thinking ahead. My meals have been mostly clean lately, but I've had some slip ups here and there. I know that if I do it right, I can easily lose the weight, but it requires a lot of planning and dedication! It is a process!
