Making the transition to an empty nester – cooking for 1 or 2 people
When we became ‘empty nesters’ some years ago, we had to make a few changes. There are many bonuses to having the house to ourselves and not having to cater for the crowd. With just the two of us at home we get to cook what we want, not what the kids want, and watch

This week we’ve been talking about healthy Christmas gifts. So, I wanted to take a moment to talk about the best gift of all… your time. In this day and age of social media and text messages, many people would prefer you take the time to call or catch up with them rather than stress about what to buy. A thought worth pondering. Have a great weekend. Annette :-)

Friday’s thought… Don’t think that Christmas means you have to give up on your healthy eating plan. Here are some ways to avoid gaining weight at this time of the year:
1) If you have had a big day eating, then cut down the days after to counteract the extra calories and fat.
2) Have my shakes for 2 meals a day while you are so social. The extra fibre and protein will keep you feeling full.
3) Increase your exercise to help you with all the Christmas functions.
4) Take your good intentions with you when you go to any party. Everything in moderation is the key for this time of the year.

1) There are so many beautiful summer fruits available right now
2) It’s easier to drink water at this time of the year
3) Salad is so good on these hot days and so low in calories and fat

If cooking ahead for Christmas, freeze until a few hours before required then defrost at room temperature.Wednesday’s thought… If you feel tempted to go off track on Christmas Day put it into perspective. We can eat the food that is on offer any day of the year so why gorge unnecessarily on the 25th? Here are 3 tips to keep you on track…
1. Christmas is only a small part of the year. It’s what you do between the New Year and Christmas that counts
2. Burn it off instead of sleeping it off
3. Give yourself the best present this Christmas - a healthy YOU for 2019
