Introducing the Angel of Cuisine
• The Angel of Cuisine after her transformation
I’m a local Pilbara girl who arrived here five years ago weighing 120kg.
I am a married mum with two kids and the same lifestyle that we all share up here, but now with lots of exercise and yummy healthy food, I am officially half that size; plus I had one of my babies in that time.
I’m really excited to have joined the Pilbara Echo to share delicious meals and healthy tips that helped me along the way.
I know that eating food that is good for you and tastes incredible, is the success strategy to any weight loss program and I’m testament to the fact that a little dedication can go a long way to realising a brand new lifestyle.
Knowledge is definitely power and for those who are kitchen-phobic, changing your eating habits can be incredibly daunting.
I believe in eating everything in moderation and enjoying every meal.
I like to eat fresh, well made food that tastes great.
I want the food I eat to be worth my time and effort so you’ll find my meals are fuss free, made with ingredients sourced locally and really tasty.
I have dinner parties, treats with my kids, Sunday lunches and all the good things in life.
I don’t miss out on anything, I just think carefully about what I eat and when.
So lets get started.
You can see my before and after pictures here; feel free to email me with any questions you have about my journey, or health and fitness in general.
If I don’t know, I will find out for you.
Remember, your question is probably the same as another hundred people, so if you ask, then we all benefit from the answer.
