Hey! I’m Bec,

I’m a ridiculously obsessed


foodie and am extremely
passionate about helping
women slim down, lose the bloat
and end the yo-yo dieting cycle.

Where does that passion come


from? From my own journey!

I suffered from chronic gut issues


and yo-yo dieting behaviours in
my early 20s and couldn’t find
any answers from the specialists.

But, I found the answers on my


own and that was the beginning
of the end for me in terms of my
passion to help other women
heal their concerns.

I have created an approach that I


personally follow to this day and

around the world too.

BEC’S TIPS:

Truffle butter or oil isn't essential! It's just so tasty. Feel free to
use plain butter or oil or garlic infused olive oil! That's so tasty
too. If you don't have garlic infused olive oil, sprinkle garlic
powder on it for extra flavour!

Feel like your protein is a little low for the day, or you're
extra hungry? Chop up 100g chicken breast along with your
broccolini. Place a pan over med / high heat and add 1/2 tbsp
olive oil & cook chicken for a few minutes until cooked through.

Glossary
of Ingredients

A few important points about each ingredient, where to find them


and a few examples of good options to choose.

RED CURRY PASTE


› Compare brands and choose one with lowest amount of sugar per 100g.
› Make sure it has under 10g carbs / 100g and contains no added msg.
› If you are very sensitive to gluten, be sure to choose a gluten free one by checking to see a
gluten free sign on the jar.

TRUFFLE BUTTER OR OIL

› This one is optional but adds amazing flavour to the pesto pasta.
› Look for a truffle butter with minimal ingredients, free from
oils such as canola and sunflower, olive oil-based truffle oil and
butter are best.
› Copper Tree Farms naturally cultured truffle butter can be
found in Woolworths.
› Truffle butter or oil can be found in most Deli sections in IGA
and Farmer Jacks.

TOFU

› Choose a firm, organic, plain, NON GMO


and unflavoured tofu.

4 D AY S O F 1 5 M I N U T E D I N N E R S

RED OR GREEN PESTO

› Mainly look for below 7 g / serve of carbohydrates and 3 g / serve of sugars.


› Olive oil based is best compared with canola oil or sunflower oil. In saying
so if you can’t find an olive oil based one, if you are only having it once per
week in a small amount it won’t be harmful.
› Check for gluten and dairy free if you have strict food intolerances.
› These can be found both in the pasta isle and health food isle of lots of
major supermarkets, including Coles, Woolworths, IGA’s and Farmer Jacks.
› If you’ve got time and would like to make your own, here is the link to my
recipe! I buy mine from Sal’s Pasta in Cottesloe!

SLENDIER SLIM KONJAC NOODLES

› In the health food isles of lots of major supermarkets, including Coles,


Woolworths, IGA’s and Farmer Jacks.
› Can’t find Slendier? Look for any konjac noodles in the health food aisle.
These are extremely low-calorie noodles made from konjac root – an
incredible fibre for your gut with an array of health benefits.

SLENDIER SOYBEAN FETTUCINE

› In the health food isles of lots of major supermarkets,


including Coles, Woolworths, IGA’s and Farmer Jacks.
Feel free to get the black bean or edamame flavour
instead.
› Can’t find this brand? Buy any other brand of noodles
made from 100% edamame, soy, or black beans (check
to see the calories are approx. 100 calories per 100 g).

YOGURT

› Coconut: Look for one with less than 5 g / 100 g of


carbs, no added sugar, and a small list of ingredients.
Unflavoured is usually the best choice as flavoured ones
can be packed with added sugars.
› Greek: If you don’t have any issues with dairy, feel free to
buy this instead of coconut yoghurt. Look for one that’s
plain, full fat and has no added sugar.
