Diet Buddies, the begining...

Food, food, food. We need to eat, yes, but sometimes, at some point in our life we stop and find out that we eat, maybe, not because our physiological needs but for pleasure and/or comfort. Fair enough! The problem begins when, because of that type/amount of food, we lose other pleasures like the pleasure to look to ourselves and like it, love it, be happy with what we are, not to talk about the risks for our health.

Because we were not happy with our body, we decided to start a diet. And now comes another problem… so many options, and we want to do it in a healthy way, in a way that we learn how to eat healthy and be happy for the rest of our life.

After a long research, we found out the 31 days diet by Agatha Roquette (a Portuguese nutritionist). At the first read we were concern about the restriction in fruits and the amount of protein involved, but after reading her books and other people experiences we noticed that just happen for some weeks, and then we re-insert those ones, and see how our body reacts to them, it is a continuous learning process.

As the diet started to show its effects, we’ve been appealed by our friends and colleagues about what we were doing to lose weight, we decided to create this blog to share day by day our diet including recipes, researches and exercises to stay healthy and happy!
