I’ve been overweight for most of my life, and I figured it’s better sooner rather than later to start doing something about it. When the quarantine happened during 2020, I decided to get back into playing DDR as my form of exercise and I combined it with the Keto diet (low carb, high fat) and I was able to see results. Now it’s 2023 and I feel like I’ve hit a bit of a wall or rather plateaued on weight loss so now I’ll really start counting and getting more active.

Learning how to cook is good because I can save money to buy random shit that I don’t need like figures or anime merch, but it also means that I can actually see what kind of crap is going into my body. As mentioned in my older post about mushrooms, this is just a bunch of white mushrooms. I heated them until the water retained in them came out and evaporated, scraped the bottom with some water and chicken stock powder mixture to remove some of the mushroom fond, then put some heavy cream. I took out the immersion blender and shredded up the whole mushrooms, and they became the thickening agent. Thickening something with itself instead of a roux made with flour, who knew.
