    Sounds like a really healthy thing to do...but can someone clarify what is considered "clean foods"? Thanks.

    That's where you wash all your food before you eat it!

    Eats 5-6 small meals per day (working on this too, specifically splitting lunch into 2 parts has helped)

    What does meal frequency have to do with clean eating? Clean food is clean food. And what constitutes a "meal"?

    it doesn't have anything to do with it...but I think what could have been meant by that, is that when you do follow a clean eating plan, you tend to get hungry..often, especially if it's new..spreading out the calories helps with this...you wouldn't be able to really eat 2-3 times a day and achieve 1200-1500 calories unless your meals are huge!

    I believe that is the reason I've read!
