“Grief consumed me and I turned to food for comfort.”

At the end of 2019, I was in my late 30s, drinking more than I should, and even as a qualified chef, I was too unmotivated to cook at home. In 2020, my younger brother tragically died in a motorcycle accident, and the grief was overwhelming. I coped by eating and drinking more, thinking it was a way of being kind to myself. Over the years, I also faced the heartbreak of losing our unborn baby at five months, the death of my cousin, and supporting my sister-in-law through her journey with Motor Neurone Disease. Food became my source of comfort, but I slowly realised it was holding me back.

“A holiday photo was my wake-up call.”

The turning point came during a trip to New Zealand over Christmas. The hills left me breathless and embarrassed, and when I looked at the photos I hardly recognised myself. I had become self-conscious, hiding behind baggy clothes and my “fun fat aunty” persona. Deep down I knew I was ignoring the truth, that I was not happy and I was not looking after myself.

“Lite n’ Easy made the first step simple.”

When I got home, I decided to give Lite n’ Easy a try. It felt manageable, and to my surprise the weight just started to fall off. After the first 5 kilos, walking became easier. Another 5 kilos down, I gave up smoking and cut back on drinking. The more weight I lost, the easier it became to exercise and the more I enjoyed it. Before long I was walking further, joining a park run and even finishing a 5km race. It all started with small changes, but those changes snowballed.

“I see strength when I look in the mirror now.”

A woman in a polka dot dress smiles at her reflection in a mirror, with artwork and plants in the background.

Today I have lost close to 30 kilos, and I do not hide from my reflection anymore. I have been a size 6, a size 20, and everything in between, but now I see more than numbers. I see a journey through grief and back to myself. Lite n’ Easy gave me the balance I needed with tasty meals, portion control and variety that kept me satisfied. The hardest part now is choosing what to eat, though the honey soy chicken is my current favourite.
