SNACK #2: This snack has been one of my favourites and probably oldest clean eating snacks. Nothing beats a crisp apple, crunchy nuts, and some cheese.
This snack will hold me over for about 2 hours. If I add protein on the side, for example, whole egg(s), tofu, or chicken, it will last me 2.5-3 hours.
One thing I noticed when I first started to practice eating clean was my mind thought I was hungry when I wasn’t. I was so used to eating until I was FULL that I didn’t know how to handle or accept eating until I was refueled and satisfied. There’s a difference! It takes time to recognize what that feels like in your body and everyone is different. Also, if you’ve just eaten a small meal and you think you’re still hungry, try drinking water and a green tea first and then re-evaluate. It could be that you are still hungry and need to eat an additional something or maybe you’re not and you just want to habitually eat. Eating small clean meals every 2.5-3 hours takes time and practice to physically and mentally adjust to, but trust me it can be done.
