SNACKS BASICS 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 Get to know the general rules of healthy snacking so you can enjoy between-meals treats without undoing all your good work. {6}

SNACKS BASICS Your Body & Snacking Healthy snacks keep your metabolism firing and give you energy to get to your next main meal. Our bodies need a wide range of food and nutrients for energy and to be healthy; snacks can help us fulfill our nutritional requirements, without which you might feel low in energy, grumpy and hungry all the time! Plus, if you are breastfeeding, it is crucial for your milk supply to consume enough vitamins and minerals from the foods you eat, as well as enough calories according to your basal metabolic rate (BMR). By boosting your metabolism and energy levels, snacking can be a fantastic tool for achieving and maintaining a healthy weight. But there is a big difference between healthy and unhealthy snacks. If you eat processed junk food, it will not help your health, energy or weight loss, but if you choose healthy snacks, you will give your health and weight loss a boost and you won't suffer that feeling of deprivation common to dieters. The key to successful snacking is to make sure you plan ahead and have the right foods in your kitchen. The minute you are disorganised and run out of good foods, you will risk falling off the healthy eating wagon, which is why we always advise you not to keep any processed junk in your house. The following pages contain our guide to healthy snacking. We want to help you learn about the calorie content of snacks so you can make informed choices, plus give you lots of ideas of tasty foods to snack on, so you can enjoy nutritious treats throughout the day as part of your healthy eating plan. Try this... The Healthy Mummy Dark Chocolate Treats are available in whole almond or mint essence. At just 150 calories (628kJ) per 30g serve, they are the perfect choice when you need a chocolate treat. {7}

NO CAFFEINE NO ACCELERANTS GLUTEN & DAIRY FREE 96% SUGAR FREE {74} 100% FRUCTOSE FREE HIGH IN FIBRE NO ARTIFICIAL INGREDIENTS BREASTFEEDING FRIENDLY ANDREA LOST 30KGS IN 12 MONTHS "After finding The Healthy Mummy when my baby was three weeks old, I started on The Healthy Mummy Smoothies and they were my saviour! I went from only eating dinner to finally having filling and nutritious breakfasts and lunches that I could have on the go and with my hands full. The smoothies also made a fantastic difference to my supply, which was a massive help when bub was feeding continually. With the help of The Healthy Mummy program and smoothies, I was able to lose 30kg in 12 months, while feeding my bub." ANDREA DIXON The Healthy Mummy Smoothies have been a complete lifesaver for me. With a toddler and a newborn, it's so hard to look after yourself, even to make yourself breakfast in the morning. The smoothies are delicious and keep me full for ages. I've lost 8.5kg in the last seven months! ALISHA LYMAR I can t imagine how I would have survived when my third baby was born without my Healthy Mummy Smoothies. They boosted my milk supply, making breastfeeding easier. I never missed a meal because I always found a quick minute to whip up my smoothie. They were a total lifesaver! MEGAN VANDERWAAL

WHAT BREASTFEEDING MUMS SAY ABOUT THE SMOOTHIES THE HEALTHY MUMMY SMOOTHIES STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD! CAT HAS LOST 30KGS "I struggled with my milk supply with my first baby and only managed a week or two of breastfeeding. I started using The Healthy Mummy plans when she was about eight months old. By the time I had my second baby, I had been using The Healthy Mummy Smoothies for a few years, along with the meal plans. I successfully and exclusively breastfed him for seven months before returning to work. I know my breastfeeding success was due to using the smoothies to maintain my supply. They were full and nutritious meals I could make in under five minutes, ensuring I was eating enough of the good stuff to meet bub s needs. Having a meal you can make in five minutes and one-handed makes life with a newborn so much easier. I have lost more than 30kgs safely using The Healthy Mummy Smoothies and meal plans."

why we love the healthy mummy smoothies JACKIE LOST 22KGS Smoothies are a huge hit in our house. The Carrot Combo and Berry Choc smoothies were winners with the kids as well as with me. I found these two recipes very filling and the flavour combos were very more-ish! Jodie JODIE LOST 36KGS I had two smoothies a day for a while and, oh my gosh, do I LOVE them! I found that the smoothies actually kept me full and gave me a whole bunch of energy! Jackie TASHEENA LOST 44KGS I still have the smoothies (especially now they are 96% sugar free!) for breakfast and the occasional lunch. I m 10.5kg off my goal weight and finally comfortably back in my engagement and wedding rings for the first time in five years! Erin ERIN LOST 43.7KGS I find the smoothies give me a boost of energy, they are filling, quick, convenient and delicious to make. I love how the recipes are endless and I never get bored. Tasheena WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY... SALLEE DWYER Registered midwife/rn & director of Midwife to Mum I have purchased a variety of weight-loss shakes in the past and, generally, I am not a fan. I purchased the program with the smoothies, wanting to give myself the best opportunity to lose the weight. I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious the smoothies are. They contain a multitude of ingredients and they were a great breakfast or afternoon snack when I needed a boost. The shakes are helpful for mums who are on the go and breastfeeding, and they complement a balanced diet. KATHLEEN ALLEAUME Nutritionist, author and mum of two The smoothie is an excellent meal replacement and a perfect weight-loss solution when partnered with a well-balanced eating plan and physical activity. The GI (glycemic index) of the smoothie is low, meaning the carbohydrates (our primary source of fuel) release slowly, blood sugar levels remain stable and hunger pangs at bay. Best of all they taste fantastic! The smoothie is perfect with antioxidant-rich fruit for a snack, or to include as your breakfast or lunch. {76}
