Peek-a-booo!

A peek into how I got started and what you can expect on this blog page.

To begin with, I did not have the thought of having my own blog until a friend of mine spoke a lot about his blog and told me that being a nutritionist and having a blog, I could help correcting the myths most people have and shed light on several health & fitness topics. The pep-talk got me thinking and eventually I managed to create one. Having done that, the next step was – to make a post! Well, as much as I always told myself that I would not get bogged down by work, like most people, I did too. I kept procrastinating, even though my friend constantly nudged me to make my first post at least. I just let that thought get hidden and forgotten in the middle of my work and other life events. But today, it was my work that has got me down to making my post. I have been mentioning about developing and posting in the blog over 3 months and my boss caught me this month and put it down in my tasks “-to-do” for the month.

So yes, thanks to my dear friend and my boss I am making this post today.

In my first post, I want to give you guys a brief insight as to what you can expect to read in my blog.

During my counselings with my clients , I see that the information they have is a mix of a LOT OF MYTHS and a few facts in between. With everything today being pulled out of the internet, Health and fitness sure tops that list. EVERYONE has an opinion about food and sometimes the opinion turns into a fact for them (which can honestly get annoying for a Nutritionist when people argue over the myths being facts!).

In this blog, I am going to do my bit to provide you with actual facts. I will be posting about a variety of things starting from different foods and their health benefits to the different types of diets that people follow and the science behind it. And even though, I am going to be taking some my information off the internet as well, but , thanks to my 5 years of schooling and training in this field, I hope to provide you with the information that makes most sense scientifically (and logically as well!). In addition, where ever possible I will be citing journals or books. You can expect the blog to be written in simple English and I am going to try not to flood it with scientific terms.

So yes, being a nutritionist – my blog is SURELY going to be ALL ABOUT FOOD and 

More than just Fruit and Nuts (clichéd, yes!).
