August 24th - August 28th, 2021!

On the wings of the lightness that summer provides, I offer you to feel that lightness within yourself. How? Introduce a raw lunch into your summer diet, and I will help you with that.

Awaken the dormant energy in your body, feel more energetic and have more desire for physical activity. In addition, you will show your body that you really care about your immunity .

If you like the idea of testing out what it's like to not cook for 5 days, eating only plant-based foods without heat treatment, and if you want to at least see for yourself what that feeling is that all those people who eat raw plant-based foods are talking about, then be sure to sign up.

How will you introduce a raw lunch?

Join the 5-day RAW SUMMER LUNCHES challenge starting on August 24, 2021, online. This means that you will participate in the challenge without having to go anywhere. You will “not cook” in your own home. However, this does not mean that you will not socialize with anyone. Of course, you will enter a closed Facebook group where everything is bursting with ideas, likes, comments, super creative photos of lunches, and in addition, you can win a VerVita XL 6 food dehydrator, worth 1,390 kn or another valuable prize from the prize pool.

If you want, you can extend your clean eating into these 5 days, with the following schedule:

morning – smoothie / fruit / watermelon
snack – again a smoothie or lots of fruit or watermelon
until 6 p.m., 1-2 more meals (according to the recipes you will receive from me)
from 6 p.m. to 8 a.m. the next day, intermittent fasting (we don't eat anything, we drink water, preferably distilled, or tea)

Are you interested? Excellent! Below you will find other useful information.

If:

you have problems with being overweight or
you want to get rid of bad eating habits or
Do you need an incentive to change or
you want to increase the quality of your life or
Do you want to regain your self-confidence or
you have indigestion or
you want to feel fresh and energetic or
you don't like your reflection in the mirror or
you have problematic skin or
you want to prove to yourself that you can adopt and maintain healthy habits or
you don't want to spend time at the stove or
you want to spend more time in nature with your loved ones (instead of in the kitchen),

then this challenge is made for you.

I know it's hard for most people to take the first step, but that's why I'm here, along with a wonderful, motivating, and inspiring group of people who are on the same journey as you. I promise that preparing lunch will be simple , and you'll be able to get the groceries easily .

I'll prepare the recipes, and you'll make lunches based on them, enjoying a variety of foods and flavors that your taste buds have probably never tasted before. Plus, since not-cooking takes much less time, you'll have a lot more time for everything else you want to do besides 'cooking'.
