Clean eating starts today...

4.29.2013

I loathe the term "diet" because diets are usually temporary. I'm ready to make a lifestyle change. So, clean eating it is. My sister and I decided last night that we need to get serious. Like, seriously. Her wedding is coming up in June, and we both want to look great, so my love for greasy food needs to be set aside. I am limiting myself to only one cheat meal a week and only one "treat" a week as well. This is really happening, you guys. I started this morning and so far I'm feeling great, but who knows how I'll feel tonight. I woke up at 7:30 and hit the gym, then came home and prepped all my meals for the day. I just know I need someone/something to be accountable to, and this just seemed to fit the bill. Eating healthy is easier when you know others are in it with you, right? So for those of you who'd like to join me and my sister, you're more than welcome to! So, here's what I packed today for work: my lunch and some snacks as well.

    Yay! Clean eating is so important. Although, chocolate is the one thing that gets me e-ver-y time! Have you figured out dinner meals yet? We love throwing in brussel sprouts, asparagus, kale, and other green veggies with as many meals as we can. More power to you sista!

      I usually do either chicken or salmon, and veggies! I find myself doing protein shakes a lot though because they're so fast and convenient!

      Haha I'm the same way! Anything chocolate, I die. So this has been pretty hard!

    Yum! This all looks so good! I totally want to join you! I was doing so well before the cruise but since I got back I haven't got back into the swing of things.. It's hard sometimes!

      Vacations seem to always mess things up! It's so hard, but I'm trying to just prepare for summer! Haha

    Ooh very healthy! Lovely photos. I try to be really healthy 5 days a week but usually at the weekend this all goes right out the window. Going to the gym and eating well really puts me in a good mood so that helps. And what with bikini season approaching...!
