With the date for their Hawke’s Bay wedding fast approaching, Aucklanders Bridget Hewitt and Kane Yee decided to take some of the stress out of their busy lives, signing up to My Food Bag’s Fresh Start.
“We had a month until our wedding, and we really wanted to feel and look our best,” says Bridget, mum to two-year-old toddler Milo.
“We had so much on with the planning, working and our young son,” she recalls. “So having healthy meals that were already calorie-counted was such an easy option to help support us at this time, keeping us on track and accountable.”
Their weekly Fresh Start deliveries meant not having to think about what to have for dinner during that busy pre-wedding period.
“The meals were refreshing and delicious, and the portions were really filling. We felt lighter and guilt-free when going to bed – that was the best feeling.”
Plus, it meant more time for Milo after work and daycare.
“Our nights were much smoother just knowing we had dinner sorted. We also felt more energised after dinner to do the bath-and-bedtime routine with our young son.”
By their wedding day, the effects of healthy eating were noticeable. “I felt slimmer overall, especially around the face and tummy,” Bridget says.
