Eat Pretty, Eat Clean

Honestly, for the past few weeks I've been feeling ugly. Not ugly- different. I've been feeling very very unhealthy and I started to gain weight. I always used to eat whatever I wanted and get away with it. But I suppose, as you grow up it changes. I must say, I'm sick of feeling chubby and bloated after every meal. I'm sick of my hair not growing properly and having zits all around my face. That's why, with the power given to me by all clean eating blogs, I am continuing to eat clean. This summer I started reading Jolene Hart's book "Eat Pretty" and while I was in the UK, I actually did what the book offered. The main idea of the book is:

whatever you eat, you become


This means that the greasy hamburger you ate last night will be the zit on your face tomorrow morning. I'm not saying that I will never eat junk food again but I won't eat it excessively. I'm not that much of a junk food freak anyways but I'm a total foodie. I think of food day and night and I love exploring and savouring new kinds of food. So that's why, in order to do this #cleaneating thing properly, I need to fulfil my cravings.

PS: I just baked some cinnamon goodness (clean muffins) and I will post the recipe ^^


I don't know if anyone reads but if you do, thank you and take care!
