Do you have to be a vegan to be able to do this program?

No, you can be starting from anywhere at any fitness or health level!

​

I wouldn’t know where to start......does it help me with that?

Yes it does! It is a start to finish program and takes you through all the steps you need.

​

Is this a RAW food diet?

No, however I include a lot of raw food as I believe the benefits of raw eating are incredible. My focus is really on getting you to eat more plants and to show you have easy, dynamic and delicious it can be. A RAW VEGAN program will be the next step but for now, it is a combination of vegan food that is fresh and cooked.

​

Oh my gosh, there are so many I don’t know where to start.....

​

How quick will I see results?

Everyone’s body will adapt, transform and improve at different paces, so I can’t put a set time limit on the result outcome. And like with anything consistency, persistency and commitment is needed for change to happen. What I can say though, is that if you are 100% committed , you will be amazed by your results!

​

I am not interested in living off lettuce and “bird seed”, will there be variety?

YES, DEFINITELY YES! That was always my hesitation as well until I started to change my view on what vegan food can be! It is such a passion of mine to create AMAZING, HEALTHY and DIVINE vegan food and this is what I share with you in the program.

​

Does it show calories & macros?

From someone who has wasted a very large part of her young life counting meaningless calories, I refuse to put it into my programs. Yes, it is important not to consume excessive amounts of calories, that is logic, but my programs are so well designed and structured that you will never have to worry about counting a calorie every again in your life!

 

I am “carb intolerant”, is there a carb free option?

The key thing to remember is that all carbs don’t fall under the same category yet the term “carb-free” has done such. Carbohydrates occur naturally in plants, all in perfect balance and structure with everything else. Carbohydrates found in plants like sweet potato, fruits, beans, carrots, oats and many other forms of natural foods, are the carbohydrates that help health and strengthen the body.

​

Carbs that are highly processed (including many gluten free products) are the ones that do most of the damage and what has caused most of the problems. My programs and courses eliminate these bad carbs and use only ones that bring amazing results to the body while tasting just as good (think vegan burgers with sweet potato fries ;) ;)!

​

The term “carb-free” has been used and abused in the health and fitness industry as a form of selling products, making money and damaging people’s health. Most people have been sold into the lie that carbs make you fat or cause diseases like diabetes. It is the biggest fallacy been told in health and well-being today. I personally don’t believe in any diet that states “carb-free”. There is an overwhelming amount of evidence to show and prove the body is very capable of using carbohydrates correctly, effectively AND can actually bring AMAZING benefits (visually and physically) to the body. It all comes down to eating carbohydrates in the correct form and in the correct way.

​

Carbs have also shown to make one leaner, increase the metabolism and help maintain the ideal body weight indefinitely.

For someone who has tried and tested most crazy diets out there, eating carbs has actually brought me the best results ever......and keep in my I competed as a pro-athlete on a vegan diet.

​

If you are more interested in “carb-free” living, I highly recommend you choose another program.

​

I am very keep on going vegan but I suffer from many food allergies as well as some medical complications, can I still do this program?

I highly recommend you speak to your doctor first before embarking on any of my programs (also see T&C’s). I would then recommend you invest in the 1-on-1 LETS GO VEGAN course where you will work closely with me and I will custom design a program that will suit your goals and your limitations as well as adjusted the program as you progress over a 3 month period. This is truly an amazing course that is life changing!

​

Do you have alternatives for those who don’t want to be completely vegan?

This program is specifically designed for individuals who are excited to try out a vegan lifestyle. There is no pressure to stick to it “forever” but EVERYTHING that is in the program is purely vegan and NO animal alternatives are given.

 

I want to compete in a fitness Bikini Show....can I use this plan?

No, this is a lifestyle plan and is specifically designed for everyday use to gain amazing health and body benefits. Preparing for a show, you need a custom designed plan tailored to achieve very specific goals to be able to step on stage in peak condition. A low body fat is also required for these shows, which is NOT healthy long term, so a program designed specifically for this is required.

I have a set designed program called THE VEGAN BIKINI PREP which has been designed for you to achieve you stage ready physique. This program does not include 1 on 1 coaching, but should you wish to have personalized 1-on-1 coaching during your prep, contact me via e-mail hello@jodycalitz.com

​

My family has many different pallets , will I be able to adjust the nutrition plan so that I can fit it into my family life? 
My LET’S GO VEGAN program is safe for all ages (but please see T&C for individuals younger than 18). I highly recommend you get your family on a healthy meal plan with loads of fresh vegetables and fruit ASAP. This will help minimize their chances of developing diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart problems, obesity and cancer.
But yes, the program is very versatile and adjustable, just keep in mind it is for a VEGAN diet transformation for the individual.

​

Are the foods listed expensive and hard to find?
No. All my programs and courses are based on seasonal eating which means you eat foods that are in season. These foods are normally very easy to find AND they are cheaper because they are in season! Because the programs and courses are so versatile, I also teach you how to interchange and swap out foods when you need.

 

Do I need to purchase supplements E.g protein shakes, fat burners and meal replacements, to complete the program?

I pride myself in designing programs that are 100 % natural and free of animal derivatives, artificial colourants, flavourants, preservatives and anything that is not how nature intended it to be.
Having a shake can be very convenient if you are someone who has a busy life. They also help add extra nutrition and essential vitamins to your diet that is sometimes hard to find. I do recommend an amazing brand to get your Supplements from BUT this is NOT compulsory and alternatives to this are given!

​

Is the program safe to use if I am diabetic? 
A vegan diet has show to improve and even reverse diabetes but ALWAYS first get clearance from your doctor before embarking on any of my program or courses. Please see T&C's.

​

Is the program safe to use if I have high blood pressure? 
There are amazing results and evidence showing that a vegan diet can reduce high blood pressure but ALWAYS first get clearance from your doctor before embarking on any of my program or courses. Please see T&C's.

​

Is the program safe to use if I have a heart condition? 
This program is designed to strengthen and rejuvenate the heart and it has been proven that damage to the heart due to disease can be reversed on a vegan diet but ALWAYS first get clearance from your doctor before embarking on any of my program or courses. Please see T&C's.

​

I have cancer, can this diet help me?

There is an overwhelming about of evidence to show a vegan diet can assist in the prevention and cure of cancer BUT you MUST first get clearance from your doctor before embarking on any of my programs or courses. Please see T&C’s.

 

Where can I find evidence of the benefits of a vegan diet for the above conditions?

I would recommend you invest some time and watch the following documentaries;

• Forks over Knives

• Vegan – Everyday Stories

• Cowspiricy

• Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead

• The Truth about CANCER

• Fed Up

• Planeat

• Speciesism

Otherwise head over to nutritionfacts.org . This website is phenomenal and shares amazing facts, research and evidence on how a plant based diet can change your body and life!
