Muffin Top-Less

I often get asks where girls tell me they are eating “healthy” and not seeing results. When they give me examples of their diet… what I tend to find is that their “healthy” is not the same as MY “healthy”

Just because you’ve been told by a friend or read in a magazine that a food is “healthy” doesn’t mean it is. Packaging can also be VERY misleading. “Fat Free”,  ”Whole Grain”, “All Natural” are all words thrown around to make the outside of the box appear to contain a quality product. The truth is, this is sadly not the case in most situations. Most packaged goods are processed as heck and contain loads of sugar, sodium, unhealthy oils and other ingredients that are not conducive to a lean, healthy body.

The best way to ensure you are genuinely eating “healthy” is to eat CLEAN. This means eating foods as close to their natural state as possible. Little to no processing, additives and refined sugars/ingredients. Typically the perimeter of the grocery store is where you will find these foods (there are exceptions to this). 

Stick to fresh or frozen veggies, fruits, lean meats & healthy oils & whole grains (those are typically found in the aisles though.. the exception). Here is a grocery list I put together that is an example of “clean eating”:
