Local women in business got some tips on eating right for their busy lifestyle when the Women in Business Regional Network held a lunch at Middleton earlier this month.

The guest speaker was Lisa Wells of Food, Fear & Freedom, who has overcome a food addiction to now help other women to eat well to stay healthy and energised.

Lisa says too many snacks and not enough vegetables were often big problems with the diets of busy women in business.

She encourages planning to eat healthily, including preparing weekly menus, shopping lists to match, and having meals pre-prepared.

Lisa says she often cooks several meals at once, and her routine includes browsing recipes and preparing shopping lists between ads in her favourite TV shows.

“Each day we have the opportunity to stuff our face, or face our stuff,” she says.

“And we all know that if it’s not in our schedule, it just doesn’t happen.” 

The next south coast network function will be a dinner at the Hotel Crown on Tuesday, October 26, when Nan Berrett of Word Solutions will give tips on how to get the most from networking.  

A dinner will be held at Links Lady Bay in Normanville on November 4, when Carolyn Jeffrey will speak about how to simplify and shortcut your marketing effort.

The Women in Business Regional Network is open to business owners, managers, staff and those dreaming of owning their own business.  You don’t have to be a member to attend events, but bookings are essential via Eventbrite.
