Hi and welcome ladies!
I do have to say that getting started is the absolute toughest part.
Committing and making yourself accountable that you're going to eat clean and getting all the ingredients you probably don't already have (flax, natural nut butters, plain yogurt, quinoa, etc.) is tough at first but once I created an awesome oatmeal breakfast dish with all the fixins and cooked enough chicken to last a week and cut up my veggies and prepared everything for the week ahead (I spent a whole Sunday from shopping to prep to cooking this first time) it became easier the second week and is now like second nature every week, it just gets easier and easier!
Good luck and ask away if you have any questions!
Btw, the books are great resources as well, I owe Tosca Reno so much for getting me out of the slump I was in! I look so much better already, I just need to make it happen on the scale! (Too many cheat meals which I'm trying to curb right now!)
