It’s finally 2019, woo hoo!! It’s resolution time! In a survey of Americans, the #1 resolution at 71% is to diet or eat healthier, while the #3 resolution at 54% is to lose weight…two things that are closely tied together. In this same survey, it was found that while 60% of Americans make resolutions, only 8% of us actually follow through…well I’m here to help! 🙂 Source: (https://www.inc.com/peter-economy/10-top-new-years-resolutions-for-success-happiness-in-2019.html

You have a choice in 2019 (yes, you!) 😉 You can either let 2019 become another year where you make a resolution, promise yourself that THIS year will be different, do the same thing, and wonder where things went wrong when you become one of the 92% who don’t succeed at their resolution…or you can flip the script. I’ve found that a few of the reasons why people like a personal chef service is that they’re lacking either the time, ability, or simply the desire to buy their own groceries, turn those groceries into food, then do all the cleanup necessary to eat real food. That’s where I come in.

I just spent 10 minutes staring at my computer screen, trying to figure out how to make this blog post more about just me trying to promote my chef service…and in the end, I can’t think of anything. This is just going to be me doing promotion, and I’m okay with that. It’s a loooong story, but I spent the first 31 years of my life drifting around, being exactly the kind of person who would make a plan, and have no real intention of sticking to that plan. I had no purpose in my life but now I do…and that purpose is in trying to help people eat well again.

So much of what people eat in their busy lives isn’t food anymore. It was food one day, but in order to ship it to you and keep it on the shelves at the grocery store, almost everything that made it food has been stripped out of it. I preach all the time that you shouldn’t be reading labels on your food, you should be buying food without a label! A chicken breast or fresh broccoli doesn’t have a nutrition label, because it doesn’t need one. We as human being spent millennium adapting to the food we eat, and adapting our food to best serve our needs. Actual food knows how to nourish us, and make us feel good.

Finally, on that last point, when was the last time that you ate a meal, and really felt good afterwards? So many times, we eat in a rush, not enjoying our food, or having any kind of connection with it. We *used to* have a connection with our food…it’s our daily fuel. Ever since I started cooking all my food from scratch at home, I find that I’m in a better mood, I have more energy, I sleep better…everything that food should do for us. It’s my mission in life to help bring this feeling that home cooked food to provide to as many people as possible. If you want to reconnect with your food, start feeling good again after you eat, and fulfill that New Year’s Resolution for once, please email me at chefcurryscuisine@gmail.com to find out how. 🙂

Happy New Year!!!
