I function on positive energy, cafeine and bold statements. I am major- ing in both Media and Writing and Print Journalism Produc- tion, which is where I met my partner in crime, Jahaan, and how we collaboratively brought to life our vision, BLOOM. I used to try resist responding to my instagram title of @thehealthvixen but the little vixen in me has grown to be- come secure and proud of what I do. My most recent rash purchase was a running cap with the nickname stamped on it, so you can say I am confdent in what I bring to the table as an individual. With my personal weightloss jour- ney, I found my calling and passion in life, which is where this publication is born out of. I am inspired by whole- some and nutritious living, and am always there to encour- age anyone who wishes to fourish into their greatest self. JAHAAN VAN DE ROSS I’m a UCT Media, Film, and Print Journalism student. As cliché as it sounds, my passion lies with fashion and I am obsessed with it in every sense of the word. Look out for my article on Sports Luxe. Fitness and a healthy lifestyle is something that I am very fortunate to have grown up around. From a young age I kept active in doing sports such as net- ball in extra mural activities, and as I have gotten older this has evolved into me making the gym a second home. I am a frm believer that a meal which features greens is a must! Working on this project with Annie has been efort- less and we have put our minds together to cre- ate this ‘lifestyle bible’. It is true, when you are pas- sionate about something, it isn’t hard work at all! Creators of BLOOM, Annie (left) and Jahaan (right). 6 BLOOM 2015 Letter from the Health Vixen Words by Anna Insam Images by Sinead Maharaj To all the women who would like to embark on a self-improvement path, In my frst year at The University of Cape Town I committed myself to 100 days of living a healthier lifestyle. I vowed to myself that if I did not see changes at the end of this challenge, that I would return to any and all of my old habits - which were basically being totally clueless as to what was nourishing for my body and wandering aimlessly through my gym routine. Fast-forward three years and here I am, running a health account on Instagram, as my alter ego of ‘The Health Vixen’. I often still pinch myself to remind myself that I have transformed my- self mentally and physically. To know more of how how I did it read ‘The Stairway To Weight loss Success’. My favourite article is however ‘The Positivity Movement’ which will show you how to impliment your new knowledge and refects my new way of life. I have been sharing my journey through Instagram and my blog, in the hope of helping others who are on their own search for greatness. My goal is to enrich others’ transformations with my own. The Instagram account motivates me to keep up my lifestyle, and stay excited about healthy cooking. I’m not afraid of being open and honest about the ups and downs I experience, because the elements I prioritize are honesty and transparency. I devour McDonald’s if I get too enthusiastic with Merlot, and I still have love handles thanks to my love of peanut butter. I have veered close to giving up on persevering with being healthy many times, and in that way I am just like any other woman, I don’t have super-human motivation, but I have the drive in me to keep bettering myself, regardless of if I stumble. Instagram has been the avenue to encourage me and keep me inspired on a daily basis, and has allowed me to support and inspire others. My blog, and emails with my followers, has stemmed from the positive responses I found on Instagram. I post most of my meals, my training regime, and motivational posts to not only keep myself accountable, but more importantly, to inspire others to try be the best version of themselves. That adds meaning and value to my journey. That’s where BLOOM came about. I’m not ready to make a Health Vixen publication because I believe I need more experience with health, which will come with time, but my passion for health fuels me and I couldn’t think of another path to take. This publication has been designed with you in mind. That is, the woman who is a student or new to the working world, the woman who is in the process of designing her life the way she deems ft. To bloom is a healthy prosperous condition, and focuses on a balanced and fruitful environment that reproduces happiness and longevity for your soul. I thought to myself, if I had to go back to day one of my 100 days, what would I liked to have known? What tools and information would I loved to have started me on the right foot? Often we don’t even realize that habits we have are completely detrimental to seeing progress in our fgures. All that I have learned is packaged up within these pages, so I hope I can transfer my knowledge onto you, and spark your journey with the necessary information and education. My biggest fear was being afraid to try losing weight and then failing. I thought there would simply be no shred of hope for me ever then! I know now, that if your formula is right, you will 100% see results. I look forward to becoming even more learned in the area of health and ftness and developing my personal health journey in the coming years, but I hope this collection of the core elements to a healthy lifestyle is one you fnd helpful. I’m proud of what my Instagram is, and what I bring to the table as an individual - besides all that healthy foodporn. I’m proud of what it does for people and this is an extension of that, so thank you for inspiring me to create this timeless summer publication. With love, The Health Vixen BLOOM 2015 7 1 Food 1 BLOOM 2015 Food 10 BLOOM 2015 Food The Bare Necessities Your physique boils down to 80% diet and 20% ftness.

Zu Informationen zu - Der Vorbereitung meines Studienaufenthaltes - Auswahl der Universität - Ankunft und Formalitäten in Kapstadt - Wohnsituationen - Und ersten Impressionen aus Südafrika verweise ich auf meinen Zwischenbericht zu finden auf der DAAD-Homepage (unter www.daad.de/medien/südafrika_zwischenbericht_max-sebastian_obbarius.pfd ), in dem diese Themen ausführlich beschrieben sind. Im folgenden Bericht versuche ich lediglich dem Leser meinen Aufenthalt etwas anschaulicher nahe zu legen. Im Anschluss auf den Bericht werde ich für diejenigen Ingenieure, die Interesse haben, an der UCT zu studieren, die einzelnen Module, die ich belegt habe, näher beschreiben. 1 Abschlussbericht – University of Cape Town Max-Sebastian Obbarius Leben in Südafrika Südafrika – ein Land der großen Gegensätze. Das trifft in jeder Hinsicht auf das Land zu. Die Landschaft, die Kultur, die Verteilung der Reichtümer, die Menschen, die Rassen – Rasse ein Begriff, der uns Deutschen aufgrund unserer Geschichte nur schwer über die Lippen geht und der auch im Bewusstsein möglichst vermieden wird. Ein weiterer Gegensatz zwischenDeutschland und Südafrika also. In dem einen Land wird der Begriff vermieden, wo es nur geht, im anderen wird mit dem Begriff förmlich um sich geschmissen. In der Politik, bei Förerdungsprogrammen (Black Economic Empowerment), auf der Straße, bei Demonstrationen, bei Witzen. Und trotzdem, und das ist der nächste Gegensatz, bin ich selten in einem Land so freundlich und vorbehaltlos aufgenommen worden wie in Südafrika.
