Rather than giving you a long essay on how to eat clean, etc., I decided to link you to some of my favorite articles on the internet about the topic. Don’t be scared of some of the sites. 
We ALL can learn a lot from bodybuilders. You don’t have to be bulking up like a hulk to benefit from eating right and timely. Especially all you women; you aren’t going to bulk up unless you are pumping drugs, a ton of food, and lifting hours a day. If you can eat in caloric restriction and pump up muscle please give me some of your special DNA.
Strategies to Eating Clean
Eating Clean - What to Eat
“The basics of eating clean are using a few simple rules for most of your meals each day, all day, every day. If you simple follow the rule of consuming a portion of lean protein (cold water fish, white meat poultry, etc.) in combination with complex carbohydrates (yams, whole wheat bread, etc.) at each meal you’ll notice a significant change in how you feel and how you look. In addition, adding fresh fruits and vegetables to each meal will leave you feeling full & healthy! Clean snacks include the apples, fruit & nuts, or chopped veggies with hummus (one of my favorites) the fiber in these snacks satiates hunger pangs; plus fruits and veggies are loaded with beneficial vitamins and nutrients.
Meals or snacks should be eaten at regular two or three hour intervals throughout the day if you are interested in really getting lean. If you are really interested in staying trim, eat more high quality foods regularly throughout the day, this will result in increased overall metabolism, fat loss, and retaining your lean muscle.
Eating clean to stay lean does not mean eating less. In fact, you’ll probably eat more than you were before. But now, you will be eating lots of healthy, superior foods that rev up your metabolism and fill you with lots of energy. Tips for eating clean include: preparing healthy foods in advance, having extra chicken breasts, tuna salad and chopped vegetables packed into a Tupperware containers for quick access.”
The Eat Clean Diet book
These links will walk you through the basics of eating clean. If you are a Weight Watcher member, the Core program is close to eating clean. It’s not perfect but it certainly encourages a very healthy lifestyle. I think Core works much better with active women and every woman who does Weight Watchers should look into it.
