Week One
Welcome to your first week of clean eating. This week you will put
into practice the fundamental principle of the diet: You’ll eat lots of
fresh fruits and vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains. As you
make this lifestyle change, remember to keep these two guidelines
in mind:
1 Train your taste buds: This first week, you may find that
you have a craving for something sweet. Instead of reaching
for a box of cookies, try some fresh fruit or the Chocolate-Almond
2
Dip with Strawberries (page 151). You are beginning to train your
taste buds to enjoy natural sugars from fruits instead of artificial
1
ones found in processed foods, and it may take a couple of weeks to
3
get there.
2 Learn to eat all day long: To keep your metabolism going
4
and keep hunger at bay, you will be eating five to six times
a day. This may be a big adjustment, so keep snacks prepared and
3
5
handy—in a portable cooler, on your desk, or in your car—so that you
always have a clean eating snack to satisfy you until the next meal.
