It has been a minute.

Greetings to whoever is reading this, First of all, THANK YOU for being here. I have noticed that as we opt to watch content on video-enabled sites, we are losing touch, and our reading skills are slowly deteriorating. To avoid losing that and improve my English writing skills, I created the blog, and I thank you for reading whatever shenanigans come out of my mind.   Secondly, this week was extremely busy. After coming back from Mongolia at midnight, I had work at 8 am the next day. This was my second program for the summer, and I planned it for months. I am the type of person who would like to plan and execute my projects well and with quality. So, despite my tiredness, I pushed through and am relaxing now.   I don't run the program alone. Another teacher runs it with me. However, that teacher is like a little boy. His concentration is very short, and he doesn't know how to communicate well. I admit, sometimes, I wish I communicated more with him and spelled everything out t...

A mundane week

     I just checked my BGL and it was normal.       I had carbs (even though I am cutting it out) on April Fools Day. In my defense, there is a time. A time when everybody can sit down and enjoy their lunch and each others' company. April 1st was the day.       For the rest of the week, I ate clean. I had been craving veggie omelet and I had it the majority of the time. I guess, it is becoming warmer and that affects what I want to eat.       I exercised every day this week including weight lifting (simple moves with lighter dumbells). For the first couple of days, my body was sore. Now, my body feels better.       I prepped lunch components (all frozen individually). This makes packing lunch much easier because I can choose and mix in the morning.      There was excitement when I saw my Etsy shop ( if you want to visit: PracticalJapan )  had its first order. However, the b...

Doing keto in Japan

Image
So, I moved to Japan about 2 years ago for school. As a Mongolian, I love to eat, especially meat, and first I struggled with Japanese meat. Do not give me wrong because I know Japan is famous for its Wagyu and Kobe beef. HOWEVER, I prefer to eat Mongolian meat that comes from cattle that roamed the pasture and only consumed grass.  On top of that, I tried eating keto to lose some fat. I really struggled with finding ingredients that are low-carb, since Japan is a rice country. More on that later! So, in order to be accountable with myself, I created an Instagram account and started posting my food pictures, hence the photos for some inspiration.  During the last 2 years, I did keto on and off. Finally, I am starting to learn what I like to eat and how I should eat that is good for my body. Now, I tend to eat keto but I do not restrict high-carb foods like bread and rice. I live in JAPAN, the rice is very delicious!!! Hope you will join me on this blog and share your experienc...
