CONGRATS, GRAHAM!  Another season, another Clean Simple Eats challenge. For my wife and I, this is our 4th challenge in a row and our 5th overall. Since we have been fully committed to CSE and its wonderful program, the results have been amazing. Before we decided to do something about...

CONGRATS, ASHLEE! My name is Ashlee and I am 31 years old. I have 3 children, with the youngest being 9 months old. I love being a mom; my kids are amazing, but it has taken a toll on my mental and physical health. I did great after having my...

I’ve struggled with my weight and health most of my life. Anytime I wanted to lose weight, I always thought that I had to do a fad diet and run all the time. I’ve realized over the years that is not true. I’ve also suffered from Rheumatoid Arthritis since I...

This challenge was not my first rodeo with CSE, but it was the challenge I have had the most growth in. I have been with CSE for almost 3 years and have many foundational transformations that I will use to forge many more in my lifetime.  Up until this point,...

This is my second CSE challenge and the amount I’ve learned about fitness and nutrition is mind blowing. At the beginning of January, I needed to change my mindset surrounding fitness and nutrition. I (like everyone else) was living through a pandemic, I had lost a job I had for...

My story with CSE is a wild one. I first took part in the Spring 2019 Challenge following the traumatic experience of losing our son to a rare syndrome. After months of not particularly caring about our general health and trying to come to terms with what had happened, my...

As an 18-year-old kid, completely changing my lifestyle has been such a hard, but rewarding thing. I have always been so self-conscious about my appearance and my weight. It is something I have always had on my mind and something I wanted to change about myself, but I was never...

Two years ago I was eating ok and going to the gym regularly. Then we had our third child and it all fell apart. Then COVID came a year later and things got worse—worse eating, more stress, less exercise.  My wife has been following you and drinking your protein for...

As a mother of six and after a rough year, this challenge was just what I needed to change my life. I gave up on my health last year. I didn’t care how much weight I gained or how I felt. I was overwhelmed by what seemed like impossible demands...

Have been eating on plan since May. I have dropped about 40 lbs, and pant size 40 to 36. We have introduced your plan to many people also. Thanks for helping us trim up! At 65 years young, we have learned it’s never too late to change old eating habits...

To be honest, it was hard to get going after the holidays and during one of Chicago’s coldest and snowiest winters. This being my 4th challenge (the first one started in the beginning of the pandemic), I've learned it doesn't have to be perfect to feel stronger and healthier.  If...

I’m going to start with the moral of this story: Every person deserves to love the body they are in.  I have struggled with sugar cravings and binge eating for all of my life, and spent too much time stressing over how I looked physically. I even recall using my...

I first became aware of CSE about 5 years ago. I dabbled with some of the recipes and tried a couple of the meals while my goals of “losing weight” and “getting healthy” sat on the back burner. I wasn’t ready to 100% commit, and that was ok.  In April...

This challenge came at a pivotal time in my life. 2020 was the year from hell for me (as I know it was for many), and I just needed something to help me change my mindset.  Of course I wanted (and am still excited) to look better than I have...

Clean Simple Eats is the lifestyle change I’ve always looked for! Not only has it changed things dramatically for me, but for my husband and kids also! CSE has brought our family closer as we spend more time having meals together that we actually crave and enjoy. I’ve noticed dramatic...

It's been a little over a year since I found Clean Simple Eats. For years I went from eating extremely healthy, and not a lot of carbs, to eating whatever I wanted. I had been considering counting macros, but was overwhelmed by how to calculate and track everything every single...
