What specic things are you hoping to achieve by the end point of this Challenge?
What are the reasons behind your food choices? Do you think those reasons
are positive or negative? List three di erent reasons.
THINK ON THIS
STICK TO YOUR GOALS Recording the journey is an important part of your 12 Week Challenge. Take the time to track where you are
and where you want to be. Set achievable goals and stick to them.
What's your overall goal for this Challenge?
512 WEEK CHALLENGE
1. EAT WHOLEFOODSThe basic premise of clean eating is
eating wholefoods as nature intended.
The foods you eat should be straight
from the paddock including whole fruits
and vegetables, a variety of grains, grass
fed meat, hormone free poultry, seafood,
free range eggs, full fat and natural dairy
and raw nuts and seeds.
2. FOCUSING ON PROTEIN AND FAT FOR MEALS AND SNACKSThis may sound finicky but this ratio will
help to keep you feeling satisfied for
longer. Protein and fat based foods are
the most filling and satiating, whereas
certain carbohydrates are extremely
moreish and can cause blood sugar
fluctuations. Eating enough protein and
fat will provide you with longer lasting
energy to get through each day.
3. SPICE IT UPClean eating will mean a drastic
reduction in salt and sugar. These two
ingredients are used in abundance in
the processed food industry to add
fl avour and extend shelf life. Herbs and
spices are both nutritious and delicious.
Experiment with a range of fl avours
instead to stimulate your taste buds
and increase satisfaction.
4. KICK THE SUGAR HABIT Refi ned sugar is one of the most
addictive substances on the planet.
Have a little and you will want a lot!
Keep sugar consumption to a minimum
to avoid uncontrollable cravings and
the regret that will inevitably follow.
Not to mention the myriad of health
complications associated with a diet
high in sugar.
5. KNOW THE NUMBERSThis does not mean count every calorie
you eat but rather be aware of what and
how much you are eating. Eating well
does not necessarily mean eating less!
Focus on making healthy choices by
consuming a wide variety of nutritious
and wholesome foods, to fuel your body
on the inside and outside.
Clean eating is the new health craze sweeping the country. Newfound fi tness gurus are
preaching the health benefi ts and the amazing physical changes. Little do they know, a diet
full of fresh, whole foods is hardly news, but it is healthy and sustainable, so you won't hear us
complaining. Clean eating is simply a wholefoods diet that avoids processed and refi ned foods.
You don't need to buy a book, sign up or follow daily steps. Need more guidance? The below 5 points will provide all the information you require, without the fanatical approach.
CLEAN EATING
FOR BEGINNERS
7 DAYS 7 WAYSWeve designed this menu plan to suit your busy lifestyle. It includes 7 days worth of breakfasts, lunches and dinners, some of which can be made in a few minutes and others for when you are feeling a little bit adventurous.
If you follow the menu plan exactly from Day 1 through to Day 7, you
can use the shopping list provided
to prepare all the meals as they
appear in the plan.
If youd rather choose only those recipes that appeal to you, thats ok
too. Be assured that the suggested
meals are of similar nutritional value
and can be swapped for another
day or repeated throughout the
week. Youll need to create your
own shopping list though.
Breakfasts are usually single serves. Dinner always serves 2 so that you
can save the extra serve for lunch the
next day.
Special dietary needs? Check our recipe labels for gluten-free and
dairy-free alternatives also.
Male? Very active? Or just extra hungry? Be sure to consume extra
snacks see our snacking guide
over the page.
SNACKING THE RIGHT WAYNot all snacks are created equal!
Weve categorised your snacks into 3
convenient groups: perfect for when
you need to lose weight (Group A);
snacks for when you need to maintain
your current weight (Group B); and
snacks that are ideal for building lean
muscle, or to support intense training
(Group C).
In the following pages, youll fi nd
snacks that are easily put together
using pantry and fridge staples, great
for when youre in a rush.
FOR WOMENChoose 2 x group A snacks throughout
the day.
FOR MEN & VERY ACTIVE WOMENWe recommend 3 x group B snacks
or 1 x group B and 1 x group C snack
throughout the day.
FOR VEGETARIANSWe've provided some dedicated meat free options you can eat throughout the week. Or simply swap the meat out for a protein rich, meat free alternative as follows:
100g meat, chicken, fi sh can be substituted with any of these:
35g yellow cheese (eg. tasty, cheddar) 50g white cheese (eg. feta, bocconcini) 140g chickpeas, lentils or beans
20g nuts
