I started this blog about 3 years ago as a way to share my knowledge and excitement about nutrition while I transitioned from a working dietitian to a stay at home mom once my daughter (and consequently then my son) was born.
Nutrition and wellness is a passion of mine and I absolutely love this community and blogging.
Becoming Overwhelmed
That being said, I’ve recently felt overwhelmed and a bit uninspired when it comes to creating content, social media and just the general vibe of all things related to “the domestic dietitian”.
After some soul searching and re-focusing, I discovered that it was becoming hard for me to maintain the generalized “healthy living” focus of this blog. It is such a big field and I felt like I didn’t really have a focus or area of expertise that I could concentrate on.
The field of nutrition is so broad and there are so many avenues to take. When I first started this blog, I simply wanted to share healthy recipes and nutrition tips for anyone that was interested.
Changing Focus
As I’ve grown as a person and as a parent, I’ve noticed that the nutrition in my personal lifestyle has changed but the blog has somewhat remained the same.
If you were to run into me on the street or ask me for advice on how to lead a healthier lifestyle, I would ultimately lean towards encouraging you to follow a Mediterranean style diet.
I’ve been captivated my the Mediterranean style of living for some time now and it’s primarily the way we eat at my house. I love the health benefits associated with the basics of the mediterranean diet but also the social aspect of meals and culture I’ve witnessed first hand while spending time in France, Italy and Greece.
The Mediterranean Style of Living
So I’m excited to announce that The Domestic Dietitian will be leaning towards Mediterranean recipes, nutrition tips and lifestyle content. As with anything, it won’t be 100% all-mediterranean all-the-time but that is the new focus.
I’ll be sharing more about the basics of mediterranean style eating in a future post, so stay tuned!
I hope you’ll continue on this journey with me and I cannot thank you enough for being a part of The Domestic Dietitian’s growth and journey!
So many Al dente opportunities
