As I wake up I start my day with\u00a0Raw Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar + 1\/2 Fresh Lemon + Water\u00a0<\/strong>& drink that before heading off to training. With me I bring a\u00a0500ml water bottle with 15ml Chlorophyll.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Breakfast is\u00a0by far<\/strong> my favourite meal of the day, and I enjoy cooking it at home.<\/p>\n
For breakfast I have:<\/p>\n
- \n
- 2 free-range eggs fried in coconut oil. (If your stomach is really sensitive try to cook the white completely)<\/li>\n
- Steamed veggies seasoned w\/ salt&pepper, turmeric, flaxseed oil & pepitas\/hemp seeds (zucchini, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, asparagus, brussels sprouts, green beans)<\/li>\n
- 1\/2 avocado<\/li>\n
- 3 roasted cherry tomatoes<\/li>\n
- Small pieces of smoked salmon-fillet<\/li>\n
- 1 tsp Hummus (some tummies might not like this, so be careful)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This breakfast will keep me full for about 3-4 hours, but we’re all different, so please eat when you’re hungry. Some days I’ll eat more, some days less. My aim is to eat mindfully and intuitively.<\/p>\n
After my breakfast I have my\u00a0Calcium-D-glucarate + Glutagenics + Enzymes.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\nLunch:<\/h2>\n
For lunch I like to keep the majority of my plate full of\u00a0vegetables\u00a0<\/strong>and normally without animal-protein, however sometimes I do have some tinned salmon if I feel like it.<\/p>\n
Again, I’ll try to focus on the good vegetables that I can have – I cannot have\u00a0starchy vegetables or grains<\/strong> at the moment, so I fill up on cruciferous veggies a lot which I adore.<\/p>\n
I like to make a stirfry of:<\/strong><\/p>\n
- \n
- 1\/2 zucchini, sliced<\/li>\n
- 3 florets of broccoli<\/li>\n
- 3 florets of cauliflower<\/li>\n
- 2 mushrooms, sliced<\/li>\n
- 1\/4 red capsicum, sliced<\/li>\n
- 1\/4 cup of red cabbage, sliced<\/li>\n
- 1\/4 cup of white cabbage, sliced<\/li>\n
- 3 stalks of kale, torn<\/li>\n
- 5 snowpeas, sliced<\/li>\n
- Homemade Guacamole or Avocado<\/li>\n
- Sesame Oil & Sesame Seeds<\/li>\n
- Spices of choice<\/li>\n
- Salt & Pepper<\/li>\n
- Coconut Oil<\/li>\n
- Lemon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Just add coconut-oil to a hot pan and stirfry it all until soft, but with a bite to it. Add your preferred herbs; I like turmeric for anti-inflammatory properties & fennel-seeds. Add to a bowl and sprinkle with sesame seeds, sesame oil, add avocado & lemon.<\/p>\n
After this I’ll have another round of Calcium-D-glucarate + Enzymes.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\nAfternoon:<\/h2>\n
This is normally when my cravings set-in for something sweet or hearty. As I am also trying my best to cut out\u00a0sugar & fructose\u00a0<\/strong>I’m a little bit limited, however that said, if I really crave it, I’ll have something like Pineapple, an apple or a piece of 100% raw Cacao which you can get from a good health-food shop (make sure they don’t add fruit-sweetener or anything artificial)<\/p>\n
I also like to take myself up to\u00a0Orchard Street<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and treat myself for a cup of Raw Cacao + Espresso tonic with some herbs that’ll be made on homemade cashew & coconut milk (without any sweetener).<\/p>\n
Night:<\/h2>\n
For dinner I keep it simple again. This diet is really about dialling it back to basics. It’s about cutting out processed & shelf-stable items that just aren’t fresh and in a whole-foods format.<\/p>\n
I normally cook up a stirfry again or make a green salad with a piece of crispy-skin salmon or crispy-skin barramundi. I always buy\u00a0fresh fish\u00a0<\/strong>from the fish-butcher and I always buy it on the day I’ll eat it. I can also have something like tempeh, tofu, chicken or meat, but I don’t really like meat & chicken much, so I stick to fish or plant-based meals all together.<\/p>\n
That said, I do like a bolognese sometimes, so the other night I cooked Pash and I a bolognese and made\u00a0zucchini noodles\u00a0<\/strong>instead of spaghetti as I can’t have\u00a0gluten, starches or grain<\/strong> as I mentioned before. I am also completely\u00a0dairy-free<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
I always make sure I have\u00a0good fats<\/strong> for dinner as well as I find myself being more satisfied and I sleep better without feeling heavy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nNotes:<\/h2>\n
- \n
- I add ACV to most of my meals and splash it on top of food as it helps to my digestive system break down the fibre easier.<\/li>\n
- For snacks I also have lots of nut-butters, nuts and tahini.<\/li>\n
- I completely avoid eating\u00a0raw vegetables\u00a0<\/strong>as its too harsh for my digestion.<\/li>\n
- I drink chlorophyll throughout the day<\/li>\n
- I enjoy teas like Earl Grey, Peppermint, Chamomile, Licorice etc.<\/li>\n
- I’ve started having a tiny bit of starches like 1\/4 cup of sweet potato or cooked quinoa if I really crave it.<\/li>\n
- I incorporate lots of bitter vegetables to encourage hydrochloric acid production (stomach acid) to help breakdown the food I’m are eating for proper digestion and absorption.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
