Time to Get Real With Your Diet
What is ‘real food’? It’s not always easy to tell these days, when we’re surrounded by packaged meals, processed snacks, and influencers peddling the latest trendy diets. Going back to basics can be intimidating - what do I buy? How do I cook it? When will I find the time for meal planning? - that’s why I developed my Eat Real Food Program, designed to take the stress out of healthy eating and help you every step of the way.
This is a plan for 30 days of delicious, healthy eating. But it’s more than that. This is a roadmap to a better you. A you who looks better, feels better, and moves better. Good nutrition can change your whole life, from your energy levels to your mood. Are you ready to transform your health?
The importance of meal planning
Losing weight and getting rid of dietary bad habits starts with being more mindful about what you’re eating on a daily basis. It’s tempting to reach for a quick fix when hunger strikes but that bag of chips or chocolate bar can easily go from a one-off treat to a permanent solution.
That’s why meal planning is key. What we eat is directly related to our overall health so why leave it to chance? My Eat Real Food Program shows you how to eat in a way that supports your health, prioritizing whole foods that will help your body undergo a natural detox and get back on track.
On this plan, you’ll be eating a lot of nutrient-dense vegetables, fresh fruits, lean protein, detoxifying herbs and spices, and more. And your body will thank you! You’ll never feel deprived or go hungry. This isn’t a crash diet or a gimmicky detox, it’s a sustainable way of eating for long-term health.
What to expect on the Eat Real Food Program
You’re going to get very comfortable in your kitchen for the next 30 days, and you’ll see incredible results.
Running for four weeks, the Eat Real Food Plan builds on your progress as you go - adding more recipes into your meal planning template each week, and more tips to help you along the way. By switching to real foods, you’ll need to prep more and cook more, yes, but I’ll provide everything you need to build this into your routine, from shopping lists to easy-to-follow recipes.
By the end of week four, you’ll be committed to the whole foods lifestyle and wondering why it took you so long!
Week One: Reduce & Repair
We ease into the program in the first week, transitioning away from toxins such as caffeine, sugar, and processed foods. We replace these with high-quality foods to support your body as it goes into detox mode, helping you maintain your energy levels without relying on former bad habits.
A typical day in week one could mean waking up to delicious blueberry breakfast bars, enjoying a chicken and walnut salad for lunch, snacking on homemade honey granola, and finishing the day with a tasty bowl of chicken and banana curry.
Weeks Two & Three: Clearing Out Toxins
In the second week we ramp things up, adding more fresh veggies, fruits, and seeds to your diet while clearing out your system with nutritious smoothies, cleansing herbal teas, and plenty of water.
We’ll also look at removing certain food groups, if that’s right for you. This could involve cutting back or eliminating gluten, dairy or soy. You may experience some detox symptoms at this point, which is why it’s important to rest and let your body do its thing. In the third week, you’ll see your energy levels rise and your skin start glowing with health!
Week Four: Full Power
By now, you’ll be a true believer in the power of real food. In week four, we double down with a focus on plant based meals - giving your body even more goodness in the form of fruits, vegetables, beans, pulses, nuts, seeds, and grains.
The meal plan for this week is designed to use the power of plants to balance your nutritional needs, providing the optimal amount of fats, carbs, and proteins to help you perform your best.
And you’ll be surprised how easy it is to whip up delicious plant based recipes! As with other weeks, you’ll get a comprehensive recipe pack and shopping list to help you get started. Your plate will get a lot more colourful this week, with dishes like superfood tahini salads, smoked aubergine goulash, and cauliflower tikka masala on the menu.
30 Days to transform your diet and your health!
Fresh smoothies, nourishing soups, superfood salads, tasty mains - the Eat Real Food Plan is anything but another dreary diet. In four weeks, you’ll discover a new way to eat, and unlock your best health.
The program combines nutrition coaching with everything you need for 4 weeks of meal planning. The comprehensive course includes detailed recipe packs with step-by-step instructions for each dish and a breakdown of every meal’s fats, protein, carbs, and calories to help you track your macros.
Also included are weekly shopping lists, full of the high-quality but affordable foods you need, and lots of dietary tips to help you sustain your new eating plan and healthy habits.
