🟣 Pasta, Gelato, and BS Diets 🇮🇹

Hey there, my carb-loving little cannolis! 🥐

Ya gurl is living la dolce vita in Italy right now.

I’m balls deep in pasta and face-first in gelato. 

And you know what? I'm loving every damn second of it.

"But Rachel! What about those magical Mediterranean diets that promise eternal youth and magical fat loss?"

Well, hold onto your spaghetti, because we're about to slice through that bullshit faster than an Italian nonna cutting prosciutto.

The Mediterranean "diet" has been a thing for years. 

It’s been hailed as the “healthiest” diet there is.

And there’s plenty of proof to back this up.

Did you know that Sardinia, this little Italian island, is one of the world's Blue Zones? 

It's got 22 centenarians per 100,000 people.

That's more 100-year-olds than a bingo hall on pension day.

But here's the kicker: It ain't just about what these wrinkly wonders are eating.

And all the cockwombles promoting this diet miss the whole fucking point.

It’s not about what they eat, it’s about how they live. 

They're outside more than a stray cat. Vitamin D? More like vitamin DAMN.

Their social lives are hotter than Henley Fitness Clients' buns after a meaty lower body session (iykyk). No Netflix and chill here, just wine and actual human interaction.

And they take life slower than a snail on valium. Stress? Never heard of her. 

So here's my refreshing take on this whole Mediterranean madness:

Stop obsessing over every morsel that passes your lips and start living a life that doesn't make you want to face-plant into a tiramisu every night.

Get outside, hang with your mates, and for the love of cannolis, slow the fuck down.

Oh, and eat the pasta. 

Life's too short for a spiralized courgette.

Remember, a diet isn't going to fix your life. 

But embracing joy, connection, and yes, 

even carbs, just might.

Now if you'll excuse me, there's a gelato with my name on it.

Ciao for now, bitches!

Big love,

Rachel 🥰
