HI THERE!
I’m Misstachio – the name comes from my borderline obsession with pistachios (seriously, who doesn’t love them?).
I’m also a massive foodie. Cooking? Love it. Eating? Love it even more. Dreaming about it? Oh, absolutely. The downside? Let’s just say my relationship with food has led to an almost lifelong battle with unhealthy overweight.

Enjoy the read!
P.S. Just so we’re clear: I have zero medical qualifications. Everything here is based on my personal experience. If you’re making medical decisions, please consult an actual specialist.
