During covid lockdowns I really didn't look after myself. In my role as a HR Consultant, I was working a lot to keep up with the ever-changing rules and regulations around Covid and found it really hard to keep my weight under control. I was nearly at the heaviest I had ever been, and I was struggling. By February 2022 I ended up in hospital with kidney stones and was diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic.

My GP put me onto a comprehensive health plan which included a dietitian, who subsequently approved my choice of Lite n’ Easy, mainly because it was so easy for me. She then helped me understand how to make the best choices from the menu. I knew Lite n' Easy offered me a simple, convenient and delicious way to manage my weight and my diabetes, without medication.
I typically don't choose meals with pasta or rice from the Lite n’ Easy menu and stick to the fresh salads and meat with vegetables type meals. My favourites are Roast Chicken, Pork Scallopini and Chicken Schnitzel for dinners, all the salads for lunch and definitely anything with eggs for breakfast!
After 18 months on Lite n Easy, I'm proud to say I've lost 30 kilos. Over time, as I lost the weight, and ate more regular, healthy meals, my blood sugar levels decreased down to the non-diabetic range. I'm now in diabetic remission, which I've maintained for over 6 months. I've also continued with regular meditation to help with my mental health and overall wellbeing.
My goal was never only weight loss – I rarely weigh myself now and I haven't over the past 2 years, apart from during medical appointments. I'm still improving my overall health by implementing new habits. Next on my list is to incorporate more exercise into my routine by sourcing an online program and I recently discovered ACTIVATE on the Lite n’ Easy app.
I love that I've lost close to 30 kilos, but the real goal was to be healthy and Lite n’ Easy has been a big part of getting to that goal.
