Hi.
Could I see an example of a day's diet of those who eat clean. (By that I mean no processed foods, adde sugars etc. I don't mean too strictly clean) For example your breakfast, lunch, dinner and how many cals around?
THANKS.:happy: would be REALLY appreciated....

I only ask as I struggle to get enough when doing so, wondering whether i'm missing something.
Right now mine looks like this;
Breakfast - plain greek yoghurt and oats
Lunch - chicken or tofu spinach salad
Dinner - fish or meat with veg and sweet potato or brown rice
Snacks of - nuts, fruit and homemade hummus or pnut butter, eggs.0 -
check mine out. the most processed thing in my diary is the fiber one cereal.0

Sounds excellent actually.
not sure if cheese or oils count as "clean" by your definition of cleaning eating, but you can make up a nice salad with cheese and olive-oil based dressing and that will help bridge the gap if you're concerned about too few calories.0 -
Yes, maybe if I add in oils or something? I struggle to get over 1000 some days0

you can check out my diary . i think i eat pretty clean . my diary is open for everyone to see , so give it a look . (:0

breakfast - 2 brown (cage free) eggs - 1 cup of organic spinach - 8 blackberries 8 raspberries
snack - pomegranate Greek yogurt
lunch - 1 cup of organic spinach - 1 cup of romaine lettuce - 4oz of chicken breast w/ low-fat Parmesan ranch dressing
snack - 1 banana or apple
dinner - 6oz wild caught salmon - 1 cup of brown rice
everything comes to about 1100 calories - all organic0 -
It seems like you do great. :-O If you're concerned about getting enough then look up the new vegetarian food pyramid. Im not a vegetarian. But I wish I could follow that recommended diet. They say to follow it and make sure you get enough iron and b vitamins.0

You can have a look at mine (skip this past Saturday :P).
I'm mostly Paleo/Primal, but basically try to eat as minimally processed as possible - though I do have some mayo and ketchup on my burgs, haha. (I guess it depends on your definition of clean)0 -

Hate to tell you but greek yogurt, oats, tofu, pb are all processed0 -
Here is my sample diet that I give to people when they ask me what i 'usually' eat on a daily basis
Breakfast - 4 egg whites, 2 whole eggs (scrambled with 1 table spoon of olive oil) + 100g sweet potato (steamed)
Lunch - 150g chicken breast (grilled with 1 table spoon of olive oil), 150g broccoli, 100g sweet potato (steamed)
Dinner - 100g turkey mince, 1 tomato, cup of spinach, garlic
Post workout - 2 scoops of whey protein, 1 banana, 1 table spoon of peanut butter
Snacks - 1 ounce of almonds
Clean to me is healthy essential fatty acids (olive oil, peanut butter, almonds)
Lean Protein - some lean chicken breast, turkey breast/mince, good cut of steak
Vegetables - all of them, but i prefer broccoli, asparagus and spinach
Fibrous Carbs - sweet potatos is my absolute favorite, i'm not carb conscious at all, but sweet potatos is my preferred source of carbs, i do eat brown rice and whole grain toast and such as well AND BEANS/LEGUMES love them. I tend to stay away from refined processed flour based carbs such as pasta and white bread. WHITE RICE IS NOT THAT BAD PEOPLE
Supplements - good old whey protein, fish oil and a fat burner (not for everyone)0 -

I guess I don't *get* what this definition of clean eating is. I cook/prepare about 75% of my own food.0 -
Thank for your replies everyone, I will check out your diaries
Thanks for the vegeterian pryamid too!
I'm aware oats, tofu etc isn't 100% clean but to me clean is more focused on non junk type foods and added sugar, unhealthy fats etc.0 -

Excuse me, but I don't see anything about canned chicken.0 -
You can check out my diary. I eat pretty clean too. Most processed foods I eat are usually protein powder and cottage cheese.0

I'm aware oats, tofu etc isn't 100% clean but to me clean is more focused on non junk type foods and added sugar, unhealthy fats etc.
Rolled oats or steel cut oats are clean because they are whole foods. Only porridge oats are processed.
I've been trying to incorporate more clean/whole foods into my diet lately. I'm also mostly eating plant based (e.g. vegan). I use some non-dairy milk, non-dairy and dairy yoghurts and eat some chocolate (but try to go for the healthier options e.g. raw artisan chocolate bars etc.) and a few things like breakfast cereals every now and then.
A good "clean" day for me would be something like this:
Breakfast: overnight oats (rolled jumbo oats, non-dairy milk, fruit, chia seeds - prepared the night before and kept in the fridge overnight)
Lunch: homemade green smoothie (berries, banana, raw hemp protein powder, a couple of handfuls of spinach, non-dairy milk or organic coconut water)
Dinner: homemade veggie stew/chilli or curry (beans or lentils and veg) with quinoa (with minimal oil used in cooking e.g. 1 tsp of olive oil)
Snacks: fresh and dried (no added sugar or anything artificial) fruit, raw veggies, nuts and/or seeds, yoghurt or non-dairy yoghurt topped with sunflower seeds or hemp seeds, homemade vegan baked or no-bake goodies like no-bake oat bars or brownies/blondies made with chickpeas (instead of flour), apple sauce (instead of egg) and peanut butter (as the fat).0
