25.01.2022 Hi Guys Just a small note , I forgot to add one main ingredient from yesterday’s Apple Cranberry Recipe - 1/4 cup pure maple syrup.... Recipe has been amended If you change this particular ingredient to sugar free maple, it will significantly alter the taste of the finished muffin - however you can if you choose to. So sorry for the error, I do make mistakes sometimes Being Human

25.01.2022 Very simple lunch today with just what I had in the pantry & fridge, I so need to go shopping , I’ve literally had very little time, but I find that with just some basic ingredients you can still make something nourishing. Bacon Broccoli & Rice Slice Serves 8... 1 packet sunrise organic steamed brown rice pouch 6 eggs 1 Tbls Masterfoods tuscan seasoning 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese 200g bergs 97% fat free bacon 1.5 cups fresh raw broccoli chopped finely 1 small red onion diced 1 cup frozen corn Salt & Pepper Mix all ingredients together, pour into a lined square deep baking dish. Bake at 180c for 25-30 mins Cut into 8 6 sp 3p 1sp I served it with salad including olives for an extra smart point on all plans. This slice is deeper than the picture shows and very filling

25.01.2022 My very first Brand NEW COOKBOOK recipe Id like to share with you all are these delicious little Cinnamon Apple Tartlets. A simple way to enjoy little bites of apple cinnamon and sugar together that taste like apple pie. The bases can be pre made and stored until youre ready to use them, they keep very well.... Change these up by making them banana banoffee flavour as well! Fill the cups with banana, salted caramel & plain yoghurt. The only limits are your own imagination when it comes to food and flavours! But apple & cinnamon sugar will always be my first love. If you give them a go, please be sure to share with us all. 1 Smart Point on All Plans - Ive posted the recipe card in the comments - Heres the link to the recipe. https://www.weightwatchers.com//a/5f3b5af979c78404d26233d4 Book pre order links Aus https://www.panmacmillan.com.au/9781760980115/ NZ https://www.mightyape.co.nz//50-weight-lost-100-h/33578397 https://www.whitcoulls.co.nz//50-weight-lost-100-healthier

23.01.2022 Apple & Walnut Muffins Some of you would remember the last Cooking At Home Demo I did with WW was a Pear & Walnut Slice (recipe on the app) Id like to showcase a couple of variations to that slice.... Today Ive made them into muffins and used fresh sweet pink lady apples instead of pears. These muffins are refined sugar free and because Im using pink lady apples + Medjool dates, the sweetness is perfect. You can also use over ripe banana and of course the original pears. Tinned fruit is perfectly fine, but when you use fresh fruit, the flavour is much more intense. These freeze AMAZINGLY well. 1 cup All Bran 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk 1 cup chopped medjool dates 1 cup of Fresh Pink Lady Apple (or 2 bananas) 1 Tbls pure maple syrup 1 egg 1 cup self raising flour 1 tsp vanilla essence 1/3 cup chopped walnuts Add bran, Apple or banana, dates, maple syrup & egg into a bowl, pour over milk, let steep for 15-20 mins. Add 1/2 the walnuts, and 1/2 the flour, fold in, add the other half of flour, fold in. Spoon into a lined rectangle slice pan or muffin tin or WW loaf pan, sprinkle over remaining walnuts. Bake at 160c fan forced 20-25 mins Can use WW loaf silicone form cut into 8 - or make into a slice - 4sp all plans makes 10 normal sized muffins - 3sp All Plans

17.01.2022 Hi Everyone Ive noticed quite a few new followers lately, so I thought Id give you a big warm welcome and explain a bit about How WW works for me? @ww_aunz My Name is Anna and i am a ... [WW Ambassador AUNZ] I used to be a Size 28 now I am a Size 12 I have gone from 142kg to 74kg [current weight] I chose to Make small habit changes a little at a time & set small goals and tick them off as i conquered them. I set myself 5kg mini goals, it wasnt as overwhelming as looking at the big picture! Losing half my body weight, was a big task. Setting mini goals made it achievable. Patients Consistency and Perseverance is what got me to goal. It took 4 years of active weight loss doing that. I knew I didnt have to be perfect 100% of the time, I just had to be consistent, I made mistakes but I tried to learn from them. The reason Ive been able to maintain my weight loss is because I am still consistent in everything I do. Tracking , moving & making good choices most of the time. Here are a few examples I do to help keep me living a healthy lifestyle. I track my food intake and eat a balanced diet . I weight train 3 days a week & walk for mental health & rest 2 days . I prep & eat most of my own meals . I drink at least 2-3ltrs water daily . I try to get enough sleep . I never cut out any food group . I enjoy treat food working it into my plan which avoids binge eating . If I go away, I enjoy my time, but get straight back on track when I get home . I weigh in monthly . I enjoy living a healthy lifestyle . Consistency is the key . I love sharing my journey, my wisdom, my encouragement to you and my recipes to make all our journeys achievable, and enjoyable. Giving back to the community is my way of saying thank you for all the support I continue to get. . Always remember - You can do anything you put your mind to. You got this - You can absolutely achieve your own goals too, were all here to help, especially me. I endeavour to always try my hardest to answer any questions anyone may have about my ongoing lifestyle.

The best day of my life was the day I said I DO. We had it all in front of us that day, witnessed by all the people we loved.

I can’t wait to see what lies ahead for us, whatever comes our way, we’ve always faced it together. I’m just so happy and blessed to be growing old with him.

11.01.2022 Hi Everyone It’s been a particularly busy time for me at the moment so I’ve not been sharing too much, I’m working and trying to answer all the beautiful messages I get daily - big thank you to everyone for their patience- If I miss your message, it’s not on purpose I promise. ... It’s Beautiful Spring Day here in WA and so it called for a Beautiful Spring Platter for 1 for lunch! And I thought I’d share it with you! Went a bit fancy - not really - with making Parmesan crisps today instead of the normal laughing cow or babybel light cheese for a change and I can confirm it was absolutely WORTH IT and Uber delicious. So on my very late lunch plate today 2 x bliss balls (my salted caramel & coconut ) 1 x hard boiled egg 50g 97% fat free shaved ham Carrots + Cucumber + Snow Peas Grapes + Blueberries 4 x Parmesan Crisp Crackers 6sp 6sp 8sp - To make the crackers - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese And a good non stick pan Heat the pan until quite warm, place a teaspoon and a half ish of Parmesan cheese in the pan and flatten , cook on one side until the bottom is melted and quite set, meaning the cheese will start to harden (approx 1 - 2 mins), before flipping and setting on the other side for another half a minute. Transfer to a plate to Cook & harden. This makes 3-4 depending on the size you want! Trust me they are so delicious, and a fab treat!!

11.01.2022 Vegetarian Nourish Bowl Every now and then I like meatless meals, chickpeas are full of protein and if you flavour them they are beyond delicious.

Dice and season with Salt + Pepper, toss onto a baking tray and cook at 180c for 20-30 mins or steam in the microwave for 8-10 minutes. Cook rice as per packet instructions. Drain chickpeas really well, add 1 tsp garlic olive oil to a non stick pan. Add chickpeas to the pan with paprika, salt + pepper (and chilli flakes if using), toast the chickpeas, for 2-3 minutes. Let cool. Assemble the bowl by adding spinach leaves first , then add all other components on top, sprinkling with feta cheese over the top. - add fresh herbs for a flavour boost- Serves 1 9 G 6 B 2 P

11.01.2022 Dukkah Crusted Baked Salmon with Mini King Mushrooms, Rice & Steamed Veg My salmon took 10 minutes to bake, and while that was cooking, I steamed the vegetables in the microwave, reheated my rice that got pulled from the freezer that was precooked and portioned, and pan fried my mushrooms so it was all cooked at the same time! 10 minutes. Not bad for a mid week meal. ... 115g skinless salmon 1 serve (7g) table of plenty lemon dukkah 1/2 cup cooked basmati rice 1 tsp garlic olive oil steamed butternut pumpkin + Steamed Broccoli + mini king mushrooms panfried in 1tsp garlic olive oil - you can use normal button mushrooms - 1/2 tsp black sesame seeds -option- Preheat oven to 180c. Press dukkah into salmon, line a baking tray, bake for 10 minutes. While salmon cooking, steam veg in a microwave steamer. Heat a small non stick pan, add garlic olive oil, toss mushrooms, cook on medium - high heat, avoid stirring too much and over crowding the pan to avoid the mushrooms releasing moisture and stewing as opposed to frying. Cook until golden brown -approx 10 minutes- Reheat rice in the microwave.

The amazing response is so overwhelming, I cannot thank you all enough for all the love and support. Heres another new recipe from my book for you all to enjoy.... -Anna xo- My 3 ingredient pizza dough with Prosciutto Rocket & Feta Cheese - Cookbook Recipe - We all know the latest food trend is making pizza dough with yoghurt. Well, being Italian, I do love my pizza, and I was doubtful this three-ingredient recipe would match the taste and texture of traditional yeast dough. But this is absolutely amazing! It works like magic with no compromise on taste, and best of all, it's so easy that anyone can do it. Ingredients ~ White self-raising flour 1 cup(s), (150g) Dried herbs 1 tsp, mixed variety 99% fat-free plain yoghurt 1 cup(s), (240g) Polenta, dry 1 tbs, for sprinkling Canned diced tomatoes cup(s), (80ml) Mozzarella 50 g, grated Prosciutto fat trimmed 4 slice(s), (4 x 12.5g slces) Cherry tomato 8 individual, halved Rocket 1 cup(s), (30g) Reduced fat feta cheese 25 g, crumbled Fresh basil 2 tbs, leaves Instructions ~ Preheat oven to 200C. Combine flour, dried herbs, teaspoon salt and yoghurt in a medium bowl, stirring until a soft dough forms. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes or until smooth. Roll dough out between 2 sheets of baking paper, lightly dusted with flour, to approximately a 30 cm diameter circle. Sprinkle a large pizza tray with polenta. Peel top sheet of baking paper from dough and invert onto prepared tray. Peel remaining sheet of baking paper. Spread diced tomato over base and sprinkle with mozzarella. Bake for 1015 minutes or until golden and base is crisp. Serve topped with prosciutto, cherry tomatoes, rocket, feta and basil. Cut into slices to serve.

06.01.2022 Hi Guys - Recipe Amendment - Just a quick post about my Rhubarb Apple Tea Cake. The recipe has a MISPRINT in the METHOD.... Do not reserve any flour for the reserved fruit that gets scattered over the top of the cake! This is Not Necessary and will leave you with flour on top of your cake which you do not want. Misprints happen unfortunately. Here’s the link to the recipe below and this a photo of the actual cake that I made. https://www.weightwatchers.com//a/5f3b5ab743d837053e8f34ac

05.01.2022 Easy Mediterranean Pasta Salad This one I made yesterday would be a great party salad as it makes a huge amount. However also fantastic as either a main meal or a side dish. It can be served cold or warm.... To make it gluten free, swap out the pasta to a GF option, and to reduce the smart points on purple, swap the pasta to wholemeal. You can definitely add a protein to this for a main meal or keep it vegetarian. I also cooked pasta & pumpkin/broccoli separately in the microwave to save time! Worked a treat because it took 25 mins from cook to finished salad. 250g uncooked macaroni 2 cups cooked butternut pumpkin diced 2 cups cooked broccoli florets 1 small red onion diced 1 medium red capsicum diced 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved 80g reduced fat feta crumbled 2 Tbls store bought pesto (I used Jamie Oliver green pesto) Zest of 1 lemon + 2 Tbls juice Salt & Pepper 2 Tbls fresh flat leaf parsley (optional) My utensils to cook this was -microwave steamer -microwave pasta cooker Cut all vegetables plus parsley, and place in a large salad bowl. Cook pumpkin + broccoli in a microwave steamer, or as you like, roasting would be lovely too, if steamed run under cold water to cool the veg down, drain well, add to salad bowl. Add macaroni to a microwave pasta cooker , fill with water and cook for 15 mins. -alternative cook pasta on stovetop- Once cooked, drain well, run pasta under cold water. Add pasta to the salad bowl. Mix together the pesto, seasoning, lemon zest and juice, mix together. Pour dressing over the top and mix your salad together with a wide spoon, add crumbled feta and lightly mix again, season with more salt and pepper to taste - seasoning is flavour - Serves 6-8 people 6 - 6sp all plans - generous main meal 8 - 4sp all plans

Saturday is the same as a Tuesday, we still track, we still move, we still hit those goals we are aiming for. ... Week ends are for relaxing yes but not stop tracking! This can make a difference. Tracking is habitual , make it part of everyday not just a week day. And remember what we do today will affect our tomorrow Happy Week End x

02.01.2022 4 years TODAY I hit goal weight with WW. It took me 4 years of active weight loss to lose 70kg, half my body weight, and 4 years of living a healthy lifestyle to maintain my weight!

01.01.2022 Natures Easter Eggs This year for our Easter Celebrations, I’ve gone back to my childhood and made dyed hard boiled eggs. My sister and I along with my mum, grandmother and great grandmother made these traditional Greek eggs together years ago. It was a tradition that we did often but through the years has slipped through the cracks and I’ve decided to bring it back into our family.... My Mum helped me make these this year, and they are stunning. Very easy to make and edible. Natures Easter Eggs. There’s 2 ways to do it - Different colours of powdered dye. Or with liquid dye. Powdered Dye method - 1/2 tsp powder colour 200ml warm kettle water 3 Tbls vinegar Already hard boiled eggs Mix the powder & vinegar with water, in a deep container , the eggs need to be fully submerged. Drop the eggs in and leave until desired colour. Remove eggs with a slotted spoon - -do not rinse the eggs - Lay them on a tray to dry, shine with a little oil rubbed over them once completely dry. I’ve made a few different colours. The second way is with liquid dye. Same process, replace the powder with 10-20 drops of liquid dye. The longer the eggs stay in the dye, the deeper the colour. Use WHITE eggs if you can for better results, brown eggs are good for Red dye and some of the darker colour dyes. Have fun with it, the kids will love doing these and they are healthy to eat.
