In the first episode they introduce the series—Chris was hospitalized for heart problems and needs to lose weight and eat healthier, Brad is his friend who works on the Babish channel on YouTube and wants to teach him plant-based cooking. They share the recipe in the description and the videos consist of shots of them cooking together and talking about various things.
In the second episode they talk about stress and trying new things as Chris moves to a new city for work, away from friends. They are going to continue cooking the same recipes together from different places
In the third they talk about comfort, and how Chris felt a need for it because of trauma and depression and loneliness, but the eating habits he developed out of that need ended up causing him a lot more suffering. And how his journey to get healthy has given him new things to feel good about.
I’m really finding this relatable and moving so far. I don’t have the same health issues as Chris, but I do have health issues caused by my weight that have been somewhat of a wake up call that I need to change things with my health in order to live the life I want. And I’m not eating vegan, but I am cooking a whole lot to support volume eating, which has been what works best for me.
It’s a really sweet series and while people talk a lot about the emotional side of weight and weight loss, I don’t often connect with the ways they do it as well as I do with this series. It’s also really nice to see friends lifting each other up and learning better habits together without it being competitive or critical.
