"Help me lose weight!"
... is probably one of the most common phrases you hear in January. I walked into the gym two weeks ago, and could barely find a free locker.
And traffic for my clean eating and weight loss websites? Shooting off the roof!
While Im happy everyones asking for weight loss help, and has health and fitness on their minds...
I must stress that weight loss--and especially doing it through a clean eating diet--isnt a traditional process that deprives of certain food groups and cutting calories. Instead, proper weight loss (through clean eating diet) requires daily eat clean habits and exercise--and continuing both for a life time.
A clean eating diet, despite its ability to help with weight loss, is not a diet but a life style change.
And hence this little websites purpose to provide free daily clean eating and weight loss meal plans, with easy and healthy meal ideas, as well as constant reminders that aid in your weight loss journey.
One of the improvements Id like to make to the Clean Eating and Meal Plan site, in 2015, is to add more healthy weight loss recipes.
Meal plans are good; links to other sites are great. However, I also feel that providing healthy recipes right here adds variety and therefore improves visitors overall experience.
Without further a due, heres todays Healthy Lunch Recipe--Shrimp Avocado Boat.
I served this to family and friends during Christmas, and everyone loved it. I think youll like it too, especially if youre an avocado-lover.
