3 Day All Raw Vegan Challenge with Prizes! ;)

Hello Everyone! I'm so excited to be offering another challenge! :D

I was so inspired and energised by my self-challenge to do 3 days all raw vegan that I ended up doing 4 days in a row all raw vegan and it was really fantastic!

As promised here is a breakdown of my 3 Days All Raw Vegan:

Day 1:
On Waking:  1 large glass of water
Breakfast: Watermelon, Strawberry and Pineapple Green Smoothie
Morning Tea: Banana, Strawberry and Almond Green Smoothie
Lunch: Macadamia Pesto Zoodles with Tomato and Olives
Afternoon Tea: Banana and Cashew Green Smoothie
Dinner: Salad of Lambs Lettuce and Watercress with Capsicum and Semi-dried Tomato Dressing
Throughout the day I drank approximately 3 litres of water and tried to do a lot of incidental activity.

Day 2:
Waking: Large glass of water with fresh lemon juice.
Breakfast: Watermelon, Pineapple & Orange Green Smoothie.
Morning Tea: Banana, Berry & Cashew Green Smoothie
Lunch: Crudites with Pesto Sauce and Semi-dried Tomato and Capsicum Dip.
Afternoon Tea: Large Banana, Cashew and Date Green Smoothie
Dinner: No dinner this night as I was at a Demo until really late.
Throughout the day I drank about 2 Litres of water and stayed nice and active.

Day 3:
Waking: Large glass of water with lemon juice.
Breakfast: Pineapple, Orange and Mint Green Smoothie
Morning Tea: Banana, Berry and Choc Green Smoothie
Lunch: TMX Beetroot Salad and Celery Sticks with Semi-dried Tomato and Capsicum Dip.
Dinner: Asian style salad with Sesame Soy Dressing
Dessert: Choc, Banana, Cashew & Date Smoothie
Throughout the day I drank approximately 2.5L of water and tried to be active around the house.

So now the FUN PART! Because I found this challenge to be reasonably easy to achieve and I felt SOOOOOO fantastic as a result, I've decided to extend the challenge to my readers! :D

So I'm challenging you to try 3 DAYS ALL RAW VEGAN! I will post recipes for EVERYTHING I ate for the 3 days I did this, so you can simply follow those (I'm including modifications) or do what YOU like! The only rules are NOTHING COOKED, and NO ANIMAL PRODUCTS for the entire 3 days! :D Just wholesome delicious fresh fruits, vegetables, salads, nuts and seeds.

I'm giving you all until Easter to try this, so you have from now until the end of Thursday the 5th of April to enter into the draw (I'll make the cutoff 8pm Australian Eastern Standard Time). To qualify to enter you need to at least ATTEMPT to go 3 days all raw vegan. If you do all three days you can enter to win the DVD "Hungry For Change" - have a look at this website for further information: Hungry for Change. This is a remarkable and amazing film which is truly eye-opening and inspiring, you'll LOVE having this at home to inspire you to healthy eating any time you're feeling a little challenged (of course I'm getting myself a copy too!). You'll also be automatically entered to win a copy of my ebook "Chookie's Cookin' Great Green Smoothies" full of delicious Green Smoothie Recipes (one for every day of the week) plus tips and tricks to make green smoothies work for ANYONE! For those of you who may try the challenge but only last one or two days, don't worry, you'll be eligible to enter to win my ebook also, but not the DVD.

So to clarify: Go three days all raw and LET ME KNOW and you'll go in the draw to win the DVD "Hungry for Change" AND a copy of my ebook "Chookie's Cookin' Great Green Smoothies", and if you only go one or two days all raw and LET ME KNOW, you'll be entered to win a copy of my ebook.

Later today I will post all the recipes for my three days, as well as a shopping list to help you get organised!

Let me know if you're going to join this challenge and if you need any more information! I'm super excited to see how energised and fabulous you feel after doing this! :D

Love and Health! B xxxx

30-in-30 Extension and PRIZE!!!!

Hi All!

So we're currently up to 25 people who have joined me (officially) on this green smoothie challenge - which is to have a green smoothie for breakfast every day for 30 days! My goal was to get 30 people to join my by tomorrow, EEP! Seeing as though we are SOOOOO close to my goal, I've decided a couple of things: 1) I'm going to extend it until this Friday and 2) I'm going to giveaway a prize if we reach our target by Friday.

So here's what to do: Tell your friends, family, colleagues, anyone about what you are doing and ask them to join us! Also, if you've already been doing this but haven't told me OFFICIALLY by commenting on the blog or on facebook saying something like "I'm in!", please do so, so I can make sure you're counted!

My smoothie this morning: two oranges, a green apple, a big bunch of baby spinach, a big handful of ice, yum! So refreshing! I was bouncing off the walls after this :D

If you're new to all of this, please read the first post 30-in-30 and also this one, which has a shopping list for beginners, then read on in date order forward from there to now! ;)

Last but not least, comment at the bottom of this post, or on this post's link on my Facebook page, to be counted to go in the draw to win a copy of Harvey Diamond's book "Fit for Life, Not Fat for Life" which is the book that got me started on this whole journey in the first place and is a sensational read, period. I'll draw this by random selection on Friday evening by 9pm Brisbane QLD time. YOU HAVE TO COMMENT TO ENTER PEOPLE!!!

Baby food, sterilising bottles, etc all coming up in my next post later today or tomorrow!

Love and Health, B xxx
