3 WHAT IS CLEAN EATING? Eating Clean encourages individuals to become aware of what they are eating and is a sustainable LIFESTYLE approach to good health and nutrition habits. It includes a diet plan of unprocessed, whole foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean meats, and is void of artificial ingredients, preservatives, chemicals, and sugar. ***As part of this challenge, you have committed to eating clean for 5 days. Meal plans and recipes are included (pg. 15) *** TIPS Eat every 2-3 hours. Eat in moderation (portion control). Never skip a meal, especially BREAKFAST! Drink at least 8 cups of water daily. INOUT NATURAL FOODS: Fresh Fruit & Veggies, Whole Grains, Lean Meats PROCESSED FOODS: White Flour, White Sugar, and anything you buy at the store with more than 5 ingredients or an ingredient you can't pronounce. GOOD FATS: Find it in it's most natural & healthy form! Milk, eggs, meat, nuts, avocados, seafood, organic butter, olive oil, coconut oil. BAD FATS: Crisco, Canola, or Vegetable oil LIQUIDS: Water, Herbal TeaLIQUIDS: Alcohol, Juice, Soda, (Limit Coffee to 1 Cup) LOW-FAT, Reduced Fat, No Fat foods. All that means is its been chemically altered! WHAT’S IN & WHAT’S OUT! 3

4 CLEAN FOODS Lean Proteins: (Ladies: 6-8oz, Gentlemen: 8-10oz) Fatty Proteins: Healthy fats are often built into the meals. In the event they are not, pay attention to the serving size. Males typically get a full serving and females, a half serving. Fruits: It's best to choose berries in the morning and citrus or banana directly following your workout, to eat in conjunction with your protein. Fruits Used As Vegetables: Dairy: Ahi tuna Bison Chicken breast Cobia Cod Corvine Egg whites Flounder Game meat Grouper Halibut Lean ground turkey London broil Mahi Mahi Orange roughy Pork chops Red snapper Scallops Shellfish Soul Swordfish Tempeh Tilapia Tofu Top round Turkey Almonds Avocado Bluefish Bluefin tuna Cashews Coconut Mackerel Mussels Natural peanut butter Nut meal/flour Salmon Sea bass Seeds Trout Walnut Melons: Cantaloupe Honeydew Watermelon Sweet (More Calorie & Nutrient Dense): These are to be used before a workout because they are more insulin- responsive. Banana Date Fig Persimmon Sub Acid (Low Cal): Apple ** Blackberry Blueberry Cherry ** Guava Mango Papaya Pear ** Raspberry Acid (High Water Content, Low Cal): Grapefruit Orange Passion fruit Strawberry ** Tangerine Tomato NOTE: Stay away from anything sautéed or fried. Avocado Cucumbers Eggplant Okra Peppers ** Pumpkins Squash Tomatillos Tomato Zucchini Note for Fruits and Vegetables: Best options are fresh and frozen. However, if you choose canned, check for additives and high sodium. Cottage cheese Greek yogurt Unsweetened almond milk Unsweetened rice milk ** “THE DIRTY DOZEN” - For produce on the dirty list, try to go organic.

9 FIND YOUR FIT… EXERCISE! As part of this Challenge, you have committed to do 30 minutes of activity each day. The key is going to be PLANNING this activity and knowing HOW and WHEN you will be active. So, use this planner to decide how you will exercise. Remember that if you are planning to exercise outside, you’ll need a back-up plan in the case of bad weather. No excuses! Monday 0 TuesdayWednesdayThursdayFriday My Activity Plan – Enter the Activity and Time of Day Walk Run Bike Lift Weights Swim Yoga/Pilates Garden Walk the stairs Exercise equipment DVD Exercise video YouTube Exercise Video On-Demand Exercise Show Take an exercise class Play Tennis Play Basketball Rollerblade or Rollerskate Throw a baseball Play a game of tag TIME: ACTIVITY: TIME: ACTIVITY: TIME: ACTIVITY: TIME: ACTIVITY: TIME: ACTIVITY: 9

10 FIND YOUR FIT… EXERCISE! MondayTuesdayWednesdayThursdayFriday Jumping Jacks Squats High Knees Push-ups Lunges Sit-ups or Crunches Plank Want to add a little more POWER to your exercise? Add on these simple exercises to your walk or other low-impact activity. Feel free to add your own exercises in the blank rows. Write in the number that you do each day on this chart. You can even run through the series multiple times each day. For example, do 10 of each 3 times on day 1. On day 2, move up to 11 of each 3 times. Figure out what works for you and how you can challenge yourself each day! 10

11 TAKING YOUR MEASUREMENTS Prior to starting the 5-day Clean Eating Challenge, fill out the questionnaire below. This will help you to see if there are any changes you experience from eating cleaner, getting exercise and drinking Shakeology (for those that are doing this). MetricBeforeAfter What is the circumference of your waist at your belly button? What is your weight? On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your nutrition? (1 is the worst, 10 is the best) On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your energy levels throughout the day? (1 is the worst, 10 is the best) On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your sleep? (1 is the worst, 10 is the best) On a scale of 1-10, how would your rate your general mood and outlook on life? (1 is depressed, 10 is very optimistic) 11

12 UNDERSTANDING YOUR NUTRITIONAL NEEDS If you are set on losing weight, counting calories is the best way to ensure you are sticking to your goals. But not only that, it also ensures you eat enough. Yes, you read that right. It’s important to make sure you eat enough food throughout the day. If you don’t eat enough, your body will think it is starving and start to conserve fat. If you eat too much… well I think we are all familiar with what happens there. So, how do you know how much is the right amount to eat? I recommend using the Harris Benedict Formula. First you need to calculate your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate). This number means that your body will burn XXXX calories each day if you engage in no activity for the entire day. BMR = 655 + (4.35 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years) Next, you need to factor in your Activity Level. Sedentary = BMR x 1.2 (little or no exercise, desk job) Lightly Active = BMR x 1.375 (light exercise / sports 1-3 days/wk) Mod. Active = BMR x 1.55 (moderate exercise / sports 3-5 days/wk) Very Active = BMR x 1.725 (hard exercise / sports 6-7 days/wk) Extr. Active = BMR x 1.9 (hard daily exercise / sports & physically demanding job) This final number (BMR x Activity Level) gives you your calories needed for maintenance. If you want to lose weight, subtract 500-1000 calories a day. NOTE: It is important that you do NOT drop below 1000 calories a day or else your body will move to fat conservation and eventually start eating away at muscle to make up for the deficit. Another note to keep in mind is that you want to adjust your activity level for the exercise that you will be adding. You may be “sedentary” now, but you will most likely be “lightly”, “moderately”, or even “very” active after choosing your fitness program or daily exercise routine for this challenge. 12

13 MEAL PLANNING & TRACKING TRACK YOUR INTAKE: The best thing for you to do is track what you eat, count calories. Studies have shown that those that track their eating lose TWICE as much weight as those that do not. Whether you are trying to lose weight or maintain it, its worth your time so don’t skip this step! Track what you eat in a FREE app such as MyFitnessPal or LoseIt. 13

14 THE CHALLENGE!!!

15 DAY 1 DID YOU KNOW? Salt is essential for life --- you cannot live without it. What most people don’t realize though is there are enormous differences between standard, refined table salt and natural health promoting salt (Himalayan Salt). Your table salt is actually 97.5% sodium chloride and 2.5% chemicals such as moisture absorbents, and iodine. It’s also dried at extremely high temperatures that alter the natural chemical structure of the salt and make it a foreign substance for your body to digest properly. So, the next time you are at the store pick up natural crystal Himalayan salt instead. It’s the highest grade of natural salt and contains no environmental pollutants! (Find it at Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Wegmans, etc.) BREAKFAST LUNCH DINNER INGREDIENTSINSTRUCTIONS 1 cup water 1 pinch Himalayan salt ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats ½ medium mango, diced ¼ medium papaya (unripe), diced 2 Tsp. unsweetened shredded coconut 1 Tbsp. chopped raw walnuts Bring water and salt to boil in medium saucepan over medium heat.

16 DID YOU KNOW? Greek yogurt has almost double the protein of regular yogurt. Healthy carbs are a good thing so long as you pair them with an equal amount of protein. And since Greek Yogurt already has a high protein content, you can pretty much add any naturally sweet addition and have it be a very balanced meal or snack. If you are lactose intolerant or choose to exclude dairy from your diet, you can replace milk yogurt with almond or coconut yogurt which can be found a natural whole food store. DAY 2 BREAKFAST LUNCH DINNER INGREDIENTSINSTRUCTIONS 1 medium apples, cored, sliced ½ Tbsp. water ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon 2 tsp. ground raw walnuts (or almonds) 1 cup plain Greek Yogurt Cook apples and water in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat for 3 to 6 minutes, or until soft yet crisp; remove from skillet.

19 DID YOU KNOW? Flaxseed is a tiny seed that provides 3 incredible benefits for your diet. First, flax is a great source of fiber. Each tablespoon of flax contains about 8 grams of fiber. This helps keep the bowels regular. Because of all the fiber, be sure to start slow (say, with a half-teaspoon) and build up. Otherwise, you may experience bloating. Second, flax is a plant source of omega- 3. These essential fatty acids play an important role in the anti-inflammatory system of our body. Third, flax contains lignans which reduce the risk of breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men. The lignans alter the way your body metabolizes estrogens into safer forms. DAY 5 BREAKFAST LUNCH DINNER INGREDIENTSINSTRUCTIONS 1 cup water 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats 1/2 cup “Triple Berries” (Blueberries, raspberries and blackberries) 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed meal 1/4 cup skim milk (non-dairy milk works too, almond milk) Bring water and salt to boil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add oats; cook, stirring frequently, for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Place oatmeal in small bowl and top with flaxseed meal and triple berries. Add milk and stir thoroughly. NUTRITION 4 oz. cooked chicken breast tenderloins 2 cups fresh arugula 10 cherry tomatoes (or grape tomatoes), cut in half ½ cup canned, drainer artichoke hearts 1 1/2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil 1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar Grill chicken tenderloins until no longer pink (5 minutes/side). Place arugula, tomatoes, and artichoke hearts in a large serving bowl. Drizzle with oil and vinegar; toss gently to blend. Cut chicken into chunks and place on top of salad. 1/2 cup brown rice 1 cup water ½ cup canned low-sodium black beans, drained ¼ tsp. extra-virgin olive oil 1 dash ground chili powder 1 pinch ground cumin ¼ tsp. ground coriander 1 tsp. Bragg Liquid Aminos Himalayan salt (to taste; optional) ¼ cup cooked corn kernels ¼ medium avocado, mashed 2 Tbsp. fresh salsa (pico de gallo) 1 (6-inch) corn tortilla To make the brown rice, combine 1 cup of brown rice with 2 cups of water in medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a gentle boil; cook, covered, for 50 minutes. Keep covered the entire time (without lifting lid even to peek) or rice will not cook evenly. Remove pan from heat and let rice sit, covered (still no lifting lid at all—this is very important!), for 10 minutes. This will make 6 servings of brown rice. Combine black beans, oil, chili powder, cumin, coriander, Bragg Liquid Aminos, and salt (if desired) in a medium saucepan. Mix well.
