DIFFERENTLY ABLED NOT Disabled

#14HipOperations - What is your excuse?

OUR HERS READERS HAVE MOST DEFINITELY SEEN THE DELICIOUS RECIPES BY OUR FOOD EDITOR, LIFESTYLE CHEF AND CANSA AMBASSADOR, IZELLE HOFFMAN. Izelle does not just preach eating and living a healthy lifestyle, she practices her beliefs about nutrition and training as well. If you follow Izelle on social media and watch her on kykNet.tv's Die Groot Ontbyt and the Home Channel's Health program called Real Health and her cooking inserts called Better Choices, she exudes healthy and fitness.

But her journey to this point in her life has not been easy by any means. She has an incredible story of perseverance and just having true grit. We get to know Izelle better.

"Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live." -Jim Rohn

Izelle Hoffman is SA's newest rising star in the culinary industry and although she's never formally trained as a chef, growing up in a household where great food was always of comfort and a source of nourishment, it seemed a natural progression for her to take inspiration from the dishes she grew up with and turn them into a modern, playful and healthy culinary experience. "I cook with love, and I love sharing quality time preparing a meal for those dear to me and close to my heart.

"Be the difference you want to see in the world, and share the love (in my case food and cooking) the world needs more of that."

"Born with Congenital Hip Dysplasia and 14 operations later I am adamant to make people aware of the health benefits of eating the right foods and choosing a life of health and wellness.

"I am Differently Abled NOT Disabled.... So what is your excuse?"
