Clean Eating, or why it's time to make a change...

So. I think I'm going to give the whole clean eating thing a try. Why? Because I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. (I know, cliche...)

Basically, I've gained some weight this summer (not surprising what with the CRAZY travel schedule I've had), and now that the students are back work is creating a lot of stress. (Don't get me wrong - I LOVE my job, but there are times when there is a lot more to do than I have time for.)

Of course, this will be something I ease into, since I will have to clean out and restock my pantry (to say nothing of my freezer). And we all know that radical changes in diet that aren't done slowly will lead to falling back on bad habits, but I think this is something that is worth trying.

If nothing else, maybe I can avoid some of the terrible colds I seem to get every winter...
