who said blogging was easy?

holy heck! I set this blog up in 2010, and haven't posted since... sooo bad!!


Happy New Year!! 2012 already! what the !? A great start to the year, with both Mr & Mrs Eggcel hitting the clean eating track running. Seriously ... it's not a good look with the creator of Eggcel (that's me) put on a hefty 10kg in 2011. Yep, 10kg. And it was easy. Missing breakfast, didn't have my daily Eggcel (shocking I know), no exercise whatsoever and just putting myself last before everything and everyone else.


Looked in the mirror a few days ago and thought enough is enough. I freakin' look pregnant. Haven't been this heavy ever -- except when I was preggy with lil miss Eggcel. So yeah, it's time to get real.


Started a visual record of our clean eating on our personal Facebook page. It's a public album, so you should see it ok. It's more for keeping myself accountable, as well as helping you out to keep you inspired on your own clean eating journey. It's quite a big thing for me to show you that I am not a ripped, lean mean machine. It's not really my goal to be that either, I just want to get my muscles back!


Have also created some new Team Eggcel tees, which you can buy here - and you can also win a design of your choice, really easy compeition. Check it out on our Eggcel Facebook page

you can win one of these! Entries close Wed 4th Jan, midnight

I was going to start blogging on a personal page, but realised, Eggcel is personal. I created it out of the need to be able to have protein that didn't come from a cow. It really was that simple. I don't eat red meat and my body doesn't handle milk very well, so whey protein was out. I'm not convinced on soy protein, and egg whites are just so damn easy to consume. We've pasteurised it so it's safe to drink, as blending up with your favourite smoothie ingredients is the best way to have it. So, some of my posts may seem like rambling. I think it's better that way. For me anyway! If I have to think too much about what I'm writing, I will just put it off. And this year is the year of action!


So do keep checking back, my intention is to regularly blog. I promise!
