Goal achivement
What is it indeed that what motivates us to go straight after those
so desired goals? What does it take to start a diet, to keep up with it?
One of New Year’s most popular resolution is to lose weight, yet over
80% of those resolutions end in failure and 1 out of 4 don’t last even a
week… (check this amazing info graphic about new year’s resolutions

This has caught my attention going through some tips and recipes we
found on a few lifestyle magazines with their new even scientific
approaches on dieting and weight loss. First of all, as an ongoing
Nutrition scientist, the supposed scientifically approached piece of it,
could have not been more or less bad… and as always, just another piece
of vague inaccurate garbage, any person could have come up with. But
that is not what really turned us mas, oh no… Once you started on the
actual tips and sometimes actually very good looking recipes, you then
understood, healthy and tasty eating had been scientifically proven to
take forever to make, or to be rich and have a personal cook.
We wonder if these good looking unachievable sort of suggestions, are actually what people are looking for when buying and reading the magazines, or whether there could be an improvement, starting from the fact that food choice can’t only be made on a health related concerns basis (lets reduce dieting to health related concerns…) , but also convenience, price, and sensory appeal have been proven to be important determinants for food choice. (McIntosh, 1996; Rappoport et al., 1993; Steptoe et al., 1995)
I would like to believe I’m not really into complicated cooking, but don’t get me wrong, those who know me understand its more to speak of elaborate and full of joy and love recipes, which oh yeah sometimes are very easy and actually very fast, some other times the time spent in them only rejoices my love for food, cooking and well, sharing with my dearest friends. These blog should serve a platform to show some food, exchange ideas, tips, even maybe some nutritional guidance? Please do comment, get in touch and interact with me.
