LOSE FAT & WIN PRIZES!!
GUIDELINE & MEAL PLAN BOOKLET
Dear Challengers,
L
et me take this opportunity to welcome and congratulate you on taking the first step, and for some of you, the next step, towards a healthier lifestyle that will leave you feeling and looking great. Being a fitness trainer for many years, I have always been passionate about promoting a healthy approach to life. Experience has taught me that as a society we have developed innumerable bad habits. Just one of the major habits that this program will strive to achieve will be to substitute an unhealthy diet for a fat burning diet, to change a ‘quick fix’ mindset to one of a permanent mindset committed to intrinsically transforming you into a slim and healthy person. I was personally fortunate enough to have had a childhood that emphasized a healthy diet and lifestyle. My mother, an amazing women, ensured that we had healthy, nutritious and tasty meals, daily. We were encouraged to climb trees, ride make-believe horses, and enjoy the great outdoors. These good
habits were a natural part of my upbringing that is the cornerstone of all the work I do. To look and feel amazing for the rest of your life, you need to adopt certain healthy habits on an ongoing basis. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle does not have to be complicated. However, whilst lifestyle changes can be made simple, the key is to be consistent. So, make the commitment and you will see and feel the difference in your body and your attitude to a healthier lifestyle. Winter is usually a time to self indulge, cuddle up under the blankets and eat oodles of warm, fuzzy, fattening foods. Winter doesn’t have to mean runny noses, colds, flus and hiding under your blankets. This winter let’s get shredded - let’s lose fat and keep our immune systems fit. This winter you have the opportunity to keep off the kilos and sculpt a slim and fit body. The month of ramadaan gives us the opportunity to cleanse our systems by substituting unhealthy eating habits and diets for a healthy, cleansing and energising diet. Lets us not detract from this by eating calorie laden foods.
There are no quick fixes. If you can master the art of a healthy lifestyle, you will never be fooled by unnatural injections, starving yourself or popping pills that promise the world and more. End the cycle here. Through many years of experience and meticulous planning, I have transformed the standard ramadaan diet and activities to one that will keep you active, motivated and eating healthy meals for sehri and iftaar that are tasty, colourful and nutritious. The first group of participants, who had embarked on this journey with me to transform their lives, astounded me with their drive to see results. Even more impressive, was their positive feedback, not only on the scale, but also in all the different aspects of their lives. With encouragement from me and the other challengers, they were able to overcome obstacles that they had never before imagined overcoming. Another astonishing outcome has been the total commitment exhibited a year later to maintaining their new lifestyle. They have been reaping the benefits of the journey you are starting today. Benefits such as increased energy, improved moods, a
healthy diet, glowing skin and of course, dropping clothes sizes. The key to sustaining fat loss and maintaining your figure is being consistent with your exercise and diet plan. Your health depends on regular exercise. Commit to three to four hours of exercise per week and you will see and feel the difference. I wish you the best outcomes as you embark on this life altering challenge and the opportunity to remember the more you put in, the more you get out (... and I’m not only talking about the amazing prizes that are up for grabs at the end of the challenge.) Planks & Kisses,
