t has been a just over a year since I started the Health with Bec (HWB) program. I didn’t join to lose weight (other than to maybe reduce the post menopausal bloating and blobbiness). I joined to see if this program could help with my gut issues - and what a year it has been! I have discovered that: *HWB food is so good and feels “clean”. *My bloating has reduced and my gut generally is much happier. *My body feels so much better without sugar. No chocolate cravings at all and no longer looking for that sugar energy rush. *I am enjoying baking “guilt-free” treats - Hubby keeps asking “Is this allowed? Can we really have this?” Added benefits: *I found a lovely, enthusiastic, caring and supportive HWB facebook community who have helped carry me through this year. *We have a new, manageable, ongoing healthy eating lifestyle with so many healthy recipes to choose from. Was it hard when I started? Heck yes!! It took a lot of time and “brain space” to read through and understand all the information, follow the plans and make the meals. I persisted and within a few months I was designing my own weekly plans. Now it takes me 30mins a week (and a cup of coffee) to plan our weekly menu and create the shopping list. Thank you to Bec for all your hard work and enthusiasm in creating this program. Thank you also to the team who work behind the scenes to keep this program going.
