Heyy there,
Thank you for visiting my page! My name is Heather. I am passionate Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and I am a big believer in the power of nutrition, and yes dessert too! I’ve wanted to create this blog for a long time now and I am so excited that its finally out there for you all to see. My goal with this blog is to provide a place you can come to for the latest health and wellness news, tips for a variety of nutrition topics, and (the part I am probably most excited about) tons of delicious and healthy recipes!
My love for cooking and baking came about many years ago when I realized I can make healthy alternatives to some of my favorite desserts (such as cookie dough, cookies, brownies, and pretty much anything else with chocolate in it). I would consider myself a chocoholic, I mean I’ve never come across a piece of chocolate I didn’t like. But throughout the creations of those desserts, my desire for experimenting in the kitchen expanded to a variety of different foods. And now I enjoy my more nutritious versions over the real thing; I know…can you believe that?!
I have always been and will always be a foodie. I mean my entire career revolves around food, so if that doesn’t say something than I don’t know what will. However, through my education and experiences during my journey to becoming a dietitian, my passion for food has developed into a stronger desire to fuel my body with things that taste great and make me feel amazing. And I can’t lie, finding the science behind it is pretty awesome as well.
I truly feel deep down that everyone has an intuition 4 nutrition, meaning we all have the ability to create a balanced and healthy lifestyle (which BTW may differ for each person), but sometimes that ability gets hard to handle when there’s so much marketing and media influencing what “health” really means. To me, a healthy lifestyle goes way beyond the food, including factors such as hydration, stress, sleep, and exercise. With all that being said, I am so looking forward to beginning the journey of sharing everything related to food and nutrition on this blog and hopefully help you find your own intuition 4 a nutritious and balanced life.
Thank you for stopping by! I hope you visit again shortly =]
With Love,
Heather
