Food: The reason I'm alive

No, really. I mean, yeah, if I didn't eat, I'd be dead. I got that.

But I enjoy food. When I travel, I choose the locations based on what kind of food I can try. I budget most of my money for eating. I constantly splurge on and reward myself with foods.
I truly feel that food gives my life purpose and meaning. Especially interesting and rare ethnic foods, but also those comfort foods like homemade chili, hamburgers, pasta, hot ham & cheese sandwiches with tomato soup...

It is for this reason that I always said I could never survive on a low-carb diet. I love noodles, bread, rice, potatoes, need I even say it--beer?!!

So here I am. In Korea, land of rice as the meal focus. On a low-carb diet.

"Why?" You ask.
"Well, nothing else works anymore," I respond.
