WHAT PEOPLE SAY
VEGAN CHALLENGE
Thank you Christine. We really enjoyed the vegan challenge. Recipes easy to follow and so tasty. As you know my son is a rather fussy eater so when I told him we were doing a 14 day vegan challenge I was anxious that he wouldn’t like any of the dishes I prepared, to both his and my surprise he loved them.
REBOUNDING
Your rebounding classes are fantastic. I cannot believe how good I feel after just 2 weeks. The atmosphere you create, music you use and outdoor setting all make for the MOST enjoyable exercise class.
Thank you Christine. See you next week.
DETOX PACKS
Thank you very much. I enjoyed everything and didn't feel deprived at all! Meal prepping is my biggest challenge.
This was a great detox & the food was delicious & so well thought out.
Recipes.
We create food that is delicious, jam-packed full of flavor and nutrients with a focus on gluten, dairy and sugar-free meals for the whole family.
"This detox has shown me that I need to cut out sugar and coffee. It’s made a huge difference. Maybe even consider less meat. I feel like I can cope with everything better because my mind isn't clouded and my anxiety is manageable at work and with the family."
"For someone who cannot cook, I find all your recipes very easy to follow and every single meal or snack is an absolute feast for the senses. I enjoyed the 14 day vegan challenge - the meals were nutritious, delicious and scrumptious. I cannot wait to start the 21 day clean eating program next week."

'Health yourself' is my go-to lifeline when I am feeling unhealthy or am needing to drop a few kilograms. I have done the 21-day Spring and Summer cleanses as well as two "skinny black dress" challenges. I love the delicious, healthy but filling meals, the group camaraderie and the fact that I always drop the unwanted kilos and feel cleansed both inside and out. Christine is a great support and motivator. Thank you for helping me on numerous occasions to find my sparkle again...and fit into my bikini.

" I'm really sad that I have no more meals. Not sure what I am going to eat tomorrow. Thank you for a great detox. Your meals were amazing!! And so proud I didn't cheat, but that's because they were that good. Thank you again. I feel great! "
