Pages : 217
Book Description
I have been writing this book my entire life. From the shameful moments I hung my head in the toilet to the times I wouldn't eat for 8 days. It became normal for me to spend evenings alone bingeing on a loaf of bread and honey or a whole BBQ chicken. You will learn about my past of eating disorders, drug taking, and depression. By following the Raw till 4 Lifestyle I've finally found peace, balance, and purpose. I've overcome Irritable bowel syndrome, acne, hypothyroidism, depression and lost over 40lbs of excessive blubber. I used to jump from diet to diet and waste thousands of dollars following the terrible advice of so-called "health care professionals." I survived the starvation Bikini plans, the Paleo programme, the Keto Diet, metabolic typing, water fasting, juice feasting... you name it, I've tried it. These programmes only left me fatter and more depressed. Then I stumbled on the power of a raw food diet and fruit. Raw Till 4 combines a raw and cooked food approach to a vegan lifestyle. Over the years I woke to the realization that animals are not food and eating them is not only cruel but unnecessary and extremely unhealthy. As you will soon find out a plant-based diet is the healthiest diet for humans. This book gives you everything you need to succeed on this high carb vegan lifestyle: A 30-day meal planner, 4-week shopping list, exercise guide, over 55 color recipes, RT4 Diet Pyramid and so much more. It's time to become the healthiest, happiest, kick-ass person you know! BOOM! Time to go fruit yourself. ;-) By Freelee
