Lately I've had great success with my diet and I just wanted to share. This is what a typical day has looked like for me lately:

Breakfast: Gluten free oatmeal and a green smoothie

Lunch: Chicken breast with vegetables

Dinner: Chicken breast with more vegetables

Snacks: Sometimes I have more oatmeal, chicken breast, vegetables, or fruit

For my lunch and dinner literally half the plate is covered in vegetables. I've also been trying to keep all my meals very low in fat.

The changes I've noticed are that my skin barely feels oily anymore and I have much less active acne. My blackheads also seem to be slowly diminishing and overall my skin looks much healthier. My hair is also much less oily. My hair used to look oily 1 day after I washed it, but now it doesn't look that way for 2-3 days. I also have much less body odor for some reason...

I plan to keep this up. The effects are so nice :)

I'm glad to hear that you clearing up by dietary changes smile.png i'm doing a lot of dietary changes myself right now. I'm trying somekind of paleo-diet proposed by Loren Cordain in his book "The Dietary Cure for Acne". Things are clearing up slowly at day 6.

So I cheated and ate a few pieces of pizza and my skin isn't as great as it was a few days ago. It feels a little more oily? Can a few pieces of pizza really make that much of a difference?

According to Loren Cordain (the author of the dietary cure for acne) some foods like high-fat foods (the wrong fat), dairy, grains, legumes etc increase sebum production and inflammatory response in the body --> acne.

Could be because of the pizza :-/ or could be a coincidence.

To make diet success, it is better to join GYM as after it more foodie you become and body after some days looks fit and fine.
