About This Site

Hi, I’m Michael. I live in Seoul, Korea, and I have Type 2 diabetes. I also have gout. And a fake eye. And I’m pretty sure I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

If you really want to know more, and I can’t imagine why you would, go here.

Now you know. Diabetics got bills to pay!

If you don’t have a food scale, you should get one!


I use mine to reliably measure how much of a certain food I’m eating when I do before-and-after blood sugar tests. Basic food scales are cheap. You can also get fancy ones that provide nutritional information.
