Elizabeth here! I thought I would give a quick overview of what my main focus will be in terms of healthy living this fall: eating clean.
I happen to be the owner of the slowest metabolism in the world – fortunately I’ve come to use that fact as a motivation rather than an excuse. I make it a daily habit to run, do yoga, or hit the gym, but I’m not getting the results that I want. It makes total sense that unhealthy eating would cancel out all of my hard work. While my eating habits are by no means disastrous, they could certainly use some improvement.
So what does eating clean actually entail? After doing some research, I’ve gathered some facts: eating clean means consuming wholesome, lean, and nutritious foods with a very limited amount of refined sugar and processed foods. I’m hoping to experience an increase in my energy levels as well as a difference in my body!
As of today, October 12, I pledge to eat clean. For someone who’s a total foodie, this is going to be easier said than done. But I have a hunch that once I start seeing and feeling results, I won’t want to stop!
Wish me luck!
