Lisa Davis' Tips to Clean Eating, Dirty Sex:

• You are not your past. Seek help, outside counsel, join a support group to address unhealthy childhood habits.

• You are what you eat. Commit to a weekly food calendar to eat whole foods: healthy fats, grass-fed meat, big salads, dark chocolate, the entire fruit.

• Be brave. Make a covenant with self that today you will dismiss blockers, naysayers, and saboteurs. They no longer serve you.
