Week of Eating Clean - Day 1

Sister K and I decided that we were going to eat "clean" this week and see who could eat the cleanest. It's always more fun when it is a competition. ;) I've done this before for 1 month during November 07. It is hard not to eat junk food but you do notice that your clothes fit alot better. It's a trade-off. So today is Day 1 of the 1 week eating clean challenge. This could turn into 2 weeks if things go well and if Sister K sticks to it. With Valentine's Day coming up it could be difficult to avoid sweets and yummy Valentine Day treats. Maybe this will be a good chance to see how well one can withstand the temptations of the holidays.



Breakfast - 10:00am
1 cup cooked oatmeal with 1/2 cup Blueberries and 1 tbsp peanut butter
1 cup "I Love Lemon" hot herbal tea
