A message of sincere thanks- check out these amazing people, blogs and pages!

What is the best part about running a seriously kickass petition asking the Heart Foundation to stop giving advice and promoting food that causes, rather than prevents heart disease? The amazing community you find yourself a part of of course and all the seriously awesome people you meet.

This blog post will be HUGE because there are so many involved and so many that deserve some recognition and more followers!! So please head on over and like and check out everyone one of the blogs and pages mentioned. All the people that don’t run a blog or page and have shown me and the petition a truly amazing amount of support, I want to thank you too. Your messages, shares, likes and kind words are greatly appreciated and I wouldn’t be doing any of it if it weren’t for you. This is Part 1 as there are too many to fit in one post! Stay tuned for part 2.

Firstly I want to thank Christine Cronau. She has been an immense support to me. I am constantly recommending her book The Fat Revolution to people. She has spent many hours online with me talking me through how to handle the haters, how to keep going and she has worked tirelessly at getting the message and truth about saturated fat and cholesterol out there as well as spreading the petition. Just today she got Jimmy Moore involved on facebook and Tom Naughton maker of the fantastic film Fat Head involved- the petition is spreading far and wide. Check out this article. I would highly recommend following her on facebook, she shares SO MUCH valuable information with people every single day and is really making a difference- plus she’s a fellow Brissy chick and bloody hell does she look good. I can’t believe her age honestly, hope I am as smoking hot as her as I get older haha! It’s all the delicious fat and cholesterol she eats I tell you!

Cyndi O’Meara, this woman is a serious powerhouse. A nutritionist who doesn’t have her head up her ass and does NOT believe in the food pyramid funded by big corporations. She runs Changing Habits and her website is here where you can find her books, online store, events and all the amazing articles she has written. This woman is a huge inspiration to me. She does NOT back down from a topic, even if it sparks massive controversy. She is not afraid to discuss vaccinations, what’s really in our baby formula, Autism, mental health issues, saturated fat and cholesterol, scamming money hungry big business. This woman will NEVER be a sell out and tells it how it is in a highly intelligent and proficient manner. She has also been a huge supporter of the petition and been so kind to me and had many a wise word to share with me- she keeps me going and I truly adore her. I can’t wait for the day I get to meet this amazing woman and give her a huge hug (even though I hate hugging and don’t touch ANYONE). She has done amazing things for this country and for people’s health far and wide. What a true gift for Aussie’s to have. Get her book Changing Habits, Changing Lives if you haven’t already.

Joanna Rushton from Energy Coaching Institute. What a beautiful and supportive woman. She has shared the petition SO MANY TIMES and is always there with a kind and supportive word for me. She wrote a brilliant book Rocket Fuel on a Budget which is a book about how to eat healthy, WITHOUT GOING BROKE. Something I know many of my followers could do with. Check her out, show your support, she is an amazing, powerful woman. So many beautiful women in my life these days, it’s awesome!!

Dinielle from Forever Nutrition. I love this chick, she is hilarious and not afraid to say it exactly how it is. Seriously amazing information on this page, a nutritionist from Sydney, she has so much to share and such a witty and often inappropriate way (just the way I like it). She has been backing the petition and supporting me from day one. She puts up with my psycho rants and we have loads and loads of fun together. Oh and don’t just follow her page. Book an appointment with her, it will change your life. I adore her and I’m sure you will too xx

Alexx Stuart- Real Food, Low Tox Living. So many beautiful recipes, so much amazing information about how to live a less toxic, healthier life. A beautiful woman with a huge heart. Check our her amazing blog too. Again she has been a massive supporter of the petition and is an inspiration to many.

Pinkfarm! A couple of seriously rad chicks on a mission to spread the word about saturated fat and cholesterol and their health benefits, real and traditional food, real recipes for real people. They have a wonderful page and blog and so much to share, they have been on amazing journeys of their own. Just like all of these people really- I think we all do what we do because of our own health journey or something powerful in our lives as a driving force. They come from a place of true passion and are making a difference.

Naughty Naturopath Mum and Essence Practitioner runs a great page and wonderful blog sharing personal stories, recipes, health tips, gut healing info and also makes up personal blends of the beautiful Australian Bush Flower Essences for people. She has been avidly involved in the petition from the get go and wrote this brilliant blog post  butter vs margarine, including a link for people to sign the petition. Check her out :)

LiVE ALiVE Shalani & Bruce McCray of LiVE ALiVE health creation are Australia’s leading husband and wife health professional team. With over 25 years experience in the health and wellness profession, Shalani & Bruce have courageously stepped out of the conservative health paradigms they were each trained in, to reveal some hard hitting facts on why our current health status is so poor and what we as individuals can do about it. Their LiVE ALiVE philosophy is based on the fact that there is no one size fits all program that suits everyone nor has there ever been one. Education is the key and audiences leave stunned and inspired following their provocative, thought provoking health presentations.

Shalani has been in touch with me a lot and is truly an inspiring, courageous and beautiful soul, please check out their website too!

Primal Influence a fantastic duo from the Sunshine Coast, Aimee and Clint, Clint is a personal trainer with an amazing understanding of nutrition and so much knowledge to share. Highly recommend him. They also hold wonderful meetup groups and Aimee shares lots of DELICIOUS recipes. Check out their website. They are a really lovely couple.

RejuvenEAT and RevitalEYES another fabulous Sydney Nutritionist, her page is full of wonderful information and fantastic every day tips, she also has a blog with loads of great recipes and info and a website.

David Gillespie from Sweet Poison has no written three books blowing open so many food industry lies and deceit, they are Big Fat Lies, Toxic Oil and Sweet Poison. His main concentrations are sugar and vegetable/seed oils, two things I am constantly harping on about and he also discusses the uneneccesary demonisation of saturated fat. He has been an avid supported of the petition and certainly isn’t afraid to tell it like it is. You can buy his books from his website and you should also check out his blog Raisin’ Hell– jam packed full of fantastic information, he can often be found tearing the Heart Foundation a new one.

My facebook page if you aren’t already following it is Get a Fresh Start and the petition can be found here. If you would like to do a blog post about the petition send me the link and I will include your page, blog and link to your article in my thank you pages! Thanks for all your amazing support so far guys. Let’s keep going!!!
