Finding Inspiration...
A few months ago I came across a DVD on the Australian Women's Weekly cover. I was just about to throw it away when something caught my eye, the title: Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead. Interesting. A quick read and I knew it was about a man's 60 day health journey. One for a Tuesday night on the couch.
The DVD has changed my life. Okay, ignore the hyperbole, but honestly the actions that have taken place in my life since that DVD is incredible.
Joe Cross consumes only fruits and vegetables in those 60 days and has changed his life, his health and has now become an inspiration for individuals worldwide.
My partner Stipe and I were inspired. We went out to Myer that weekend and decided we weren't coming home without a juicer. Joe recommends Breville but we found an amazing Phillips with a fantastic book from Jason Vale: http://www.juicemaster.com/au/
The juices have now become a part of our breakfast routine and taste amazing. There's only one I've scrunched my nose to - tahini paste! I think I'll need to acquire a taste for that one.
Jason includes a 3-day detox, which I prepared myself for and had the most incredible journey. The first day was tough, I won't deny it, but by the third day I was no longer eyeing off that chocolate croissant, it actually made my stomach feel ill looking at it. I felt clean, nourished and completely in control. I also lost 3.8 kilos and felt like I was on top of the world.
I'll post up some of the juices Stipe and I make soon. Be inspired!
