Eating Clean

Prep Once, Eat Healthy All Week.  Includes shopping list and recipes.

People ask me all the time, "What should I eat?, Can you give me a plan?, Just spell it out for me".  And while I do have meal plans to get people started on, I need for them to understand my nutrition and eating philosophy so that they can be successful in the long term.  Eating clean, no processed foods is not just a recommended way to eat.  It goes beyond that.  Eating clean is not a new diet fad, in fact it is the original diet fad.  I subscribe to clean eating because it means eating food the way God designed it. 

I believe that God designed my human body.  ("I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb"; Jeremiah 1:5)  So, it stands to reason that he meant for me to eat foods also the way He designed them.  Much as Rudolf Diesel designed the diesel engine to only consume or use diesel fuel.  

Realistically, I understand it would be challenging to eat only non-processed foods.  However, if you consider a clean foods continuum with 100% clean foods on one end and 100% processed foods on the other; imagine carrot versus cheese puff!  Your goal is to eat on the clean half of the continuum.  Follow me on Pinterest for more clean eating and meal planning ideas!  http://pinterest.com/annacarterpins/
