Cheat day

After the phone rang a few times, Jujiseung answered the call.

-Oh, Chanyong.

“Hyung, we’re live right now. Is it okay if I talk?”

-Oh. It’s okay. About 10 minutes?

I turned on the speakerphone.

Hello, Mr. Joo Ji-seung. “Please say hello to our viewers in the room.”

Hello. I am the abbot of the Heart Sutra.

Prajnaparamita Sutra?

Whoa, is this for real?

Who?

Large corporation

In this humble place, a noble person has come.

Wait, how do you know Mr. Gungye?

Was Uncle Dang a world-class player?

“Who is the boss here!” Don’t give me a weird nickname!

The viewers laugh as he yells in anger at the nickname that seems to shorten “Diabetes Uncle.”

Anyway, it’s true that the Heart Sutra is a major channel. There are people who don’t know it, but most seem to be familiar with the Heart Sutra.

“Bro, I bought some soy meat and made bulgogi.” But was it always this dry?

-Weren’t you soaked in water?

“Yeah.”

-How did you eat that?

“……Just?”

-Isn’t it too stiff? If it doesn’t get called, it’s just a rock.

hahahahahaha the chef is confused

Our way of thinking is different from ours.

Come to think of it, that’s true. How were you planning to eat that hard thing

“I thought it was always like that.” When I added soy sauce and some other things and cooked it, it did get a bit softer.

-Oh dear. This little brat. Does it even get eaten just because you say it does?

“So I asked.”

On the other end of the phone, the voice of PD Choi Michael from the Heart Sutra was heard.

-Chanyong, I have to go on air, so let’s talk later.

“Take care.”

-Otherwise, just come over this weekend. I’ll make you a meal sometime.

“Really?”

I will hang up.

Joo Ji-seung hung up the phone urgently.

You said you were fine, but it seems you were busy.

Is it about merging with the Heart Sutra?

A big one is coming.

Doesn’t anyone know who I am?

I don’t know either.

How do you know Mr. Gungye?

“ If you lack the ability to edit the Heart Sutra, please let me know. It’s been about three years, and since we’ve been working together, we’ve become close. No, you don’t know the Heart Sutra? It won’t work. “Wait a moment.”

I searched for the Heart Sutra on YouTube and played the most recently edited video.

-Om mani padme hum. I am the chief monk of the Heart Sutra.

The more I think about it, the more the name fits perfectly.

The channel name derived from the Heart Sutra, the use of a completely balding head to adopt a Gungye concept, and the unique name all come together perfectly.

Is the temple not doing well these days? The monk is also doing YouTube.

hahahahahaha

Not a monk, lol

He’s bald, wearing a monk’s robe, and even has a blindfold on, but he’s not a monk?

Viewers who didn’t know Jujiseung are chatting and having fun among themselves.

-These days, everyone seems to be really tired, right? No matter how much I sleep, I still feel like I haven’t rested, and it seems like I can’t digest anything I eat. Today, I have prepared a meal that you can easily cook and enjoy.

I guess that’s it. Temple food.

If it’s vegetarian, it would be perfect for Mr. Dang.

They managed to gather as many as 570,000 people with healthy food ㄷㄷ

That’s true. Don’t you usually make spicy food?

-It’s boiled pork belly that’s easy to digest and nutritious.

In the video, the monk placed a 6 kg chunk of pork belly on the cutting board.

– Today’s ingredients are just this pork belly, soy sauce, green onion, and this magical drink, cola. It’s cola boiled pork.

No way, lol. It’s already weird for a monk to be cooking pork belly, but what did you say?

What the heck is going on;;;

A plate of samgyeopsal is 6 kg. If we divide it into six parts, each would be 1 kg, right? Put this in the pot and roughly chop the green onion and add it. If you’re too lazy to add the green onion, you don’t have to, but please make sure to include this 1.25ℓ cola.

In the video, the monk poured cola into the pot without hesitation.

-You can put all of this in, it doesn’t matter. I always tell you, right? You need to add seasonings like sugar or salt to the point where you think, “Is this really okay?” for it to taste good.

Guaaaaaaaah

Stop it.

Madness

Crazy monk, lol

Gungye is right, lol.

“Alright, from here on, each of you can take care of it on your own.” This is the kind of brother he is. It’s a bit strange, but it’s delicious.

I was also taken aback when Jujiseung first recommended cola boiled pork.

As I was cosplaying as Gungye, I wondered if I had been consumed by the concept, but surprisingly, it had a sweet taste that lingered and a very refined flavor.

“But now you can’t eat stuff like this, right?”

My situation is so miserable that I have to eat the scraps of bean curd left on the desk.

Please provide the text you would like me to translate.

It’s been three days since I was diagnosed with diabetes.

I’m weak because I’m not eating properly.

Freelance editing is currently only handling the tasks that have already been accepted and rejecting all new requests.

“I’m hungry.”

It’s only been 2 hours since I had lunch, and I’m already hungry.

If I can eat a bowl of kimchi stew with pork and a serving of fluffy white rice, I would have no regrets.

However, eating white rice causes a rapid increase in blood sugar, and consuming salty foods like kimchi stew raises blood pressure.

“Sigh.”

I turned on the broadcast because I felt like I wouldn’t be able to resist my appetite if I stayed like this. I think if I work, I won’t think about food as much.

I was zoning out, and then the viewers started coming in.

The average number of viewers for the live broadcast is around 200, but since I was diagnosed with diabetes, the number of viewers has actually increased a bit.

Even though the broadcast just started, 180 people have already gathered.

I was worried that the number of viewers would decrease because I couldn’t eat spicy food, but I’m glad it didn’t happen.

Why does your face look like that? LOL

I’m dying here?Hahaha

Uncle, what’s wrong? Is something bothering you again?

A sigh naturally escapes.

I gulped down the oolong tea.

I started drinking it yesterday because it’s good for diabetes, and while it’s not as good as cola, it’s tolerable when cold.

If it were a food binge, I would have been confident, but now I’m relying on this cup of oolong tea.

“Am I really okay?” No, I’m not okay. “Seriously, it’s so hard.”

Until the day before yesterday, it was still okay.

I gave up on the dish I couldn’t even make and started looking for other ways.

The first method that came to mind was roasting it.

It wasn’t a task that required special skills, so I thought it would be easy, but in the end, I failed.

The tofu fried without oil didn’t taste like the tofu I used to love.

It turns out that it’s not just about frying the tofu; you need to coat it with flour, add a good amount of cooking oil, and even sprinkle some seasoning salt to get the taste you had at the restaurant.

Since flour raises blood sugar levels significantly, I have to avoid it, and I also need to limit foods high in oil and salt, so I can’t enjoy delicious fried tofu.

At least the chicken breast salad I bought from the salad shop was decent, so I ate it for three days straight, but even that got boring.

I, who was happier than anyone else when it came to eating, am now cornered to the point of finding the act of eating tedious.

“I can’t live like this.” “This isn’t living.”

It must be really tough.

That makes sense. You’ve been eating the same thing every day.

Isn’t it okay to eat regular food instead of dining out?

I ate one Hetbahn and my blood sugar shot up to 300. It’s worth being picky about. Even I wouldn’t be able to eat it because I’d be too scared.

Honestly, the problem is that the uncle is really bad at cooking.

Is there anything else worth buying besides salad?

Exactly. Cooking can be learned slowly, but first, you need to eat to live.

Most of the restaurant food is salty and sweet, so it might not be easy to find.

That’s right. These days, everything has sugar in it. They put an enormous amount of sugar in dishes like kimchi jjim, kimchi jjigae, and stir-fried pork.

Go to a place like a side dish store and see if there’s anything to eat.

Isn’t something like namul okay?

“I ordered sweet potato salad for delivery and ate it this morning.” I’m so tired of chicken breast. But when I checked my blood sugar two hours after eating, it went up to 371.

The diet that almost completely excluded carbohydrates and sugar for a few days seemed to be effective, as my fasting blood sugar dropped from 380 to 260.

Since the target is 100, there’s still a long way to go, and because of the stress from my blood sugar skyrocketing every time I eat, it’s really overwhelming.

“Thinking about it, I think it’s because of the sweet potato and the dressing.” I thought sweet potatoes were okay? Where did you hear that eating sweet potatoes while dieting is a thing? But no. My blood sugar has really gone up a lot. I looked at the dressing ingredient list again, and it had a ton of sugar in it too.

Dressing isn’t good for your body, huh?

These days, the salads from franchises are not exactly what you’d call diet food.

There’s so much sugar that eating vegetables doesn’t even make sense.

“Shall we look for a side dish store?”

Over the past few days of checking my blood sugar, I’ve gradually been able to distinguish what I can and can’t eat.

Among the side dishes sold at the banchan store, you should avoid sweet foods like sweet potato tempura or braised lotus root, and you should also avoid foods with a lot of sauce, like stir-fried sausage and vegetables.

Still, I thought a side dish of seasoned vegetables would be fine, so while I was looking for a banchan store near my house, one of the viewers said something shocking.

Even the side dishes sold at the banchan store have sugar in them.

For real?

If you don’t do it that way, it won’t taste right. If possible, it’s better to do it yourself.

“……No.” So how do people with diabetes live? No, I mean, I work from home, so I can just prepare my own meals, but what about people who go to the office? Aren’t we supposed to eat outside?

These days, it’s the thought that crosses my mind the most.

There is absolutely nothing to eat.

To live, a person obviously needs to eat, but the food you buy is all just sugar.

“The number of diabetes patients in our country has exceeded 6 million.” How do those people even eat?2)

My dad walks for three hours after dinner.

Are you saying there are as many as 6 million people??

Since you can’t completely stop eating, think about eating and exercising.

But do you all eat like old men? It looks too extreme. Even the patient food isn’t that bad.

“Right?” Am I eating weirdly right now?

So, exercise already.

└ㅇㅇ It seems like that’s the only way for now.

“But how can you walk for three hours after eating?” Even a 30-minute walk requires a lot of mental preparation for me. You know my weight, right?

Of course, I’m also trying to exercise.

However, I had been so out of touch with exercise that I had forgotten the last time I went for a long walk.

Just walking for 30 minutes a day made me sweat all over and my knees hurt.

Even at the hospital, they said not to overexert myself until I’ve lost a certain amount of weight, so right now, I’m focusing on the activity itself.

The doctor said to be careful because if you walk too much now, you’ll injure your knee joint. I can’t do it right now. I’m not in good shape either.

That’s right. If you push it when you weigh over 130 kg, your joints will give out.

I guess I’ll have to endure for a while.

I just want to eat delicious food, but the reality that I can only live like this is driving me crazy.

“I just want to eat delicious food.” “Why can’t I be happy?”

[Banya Sikgyeong has donated 100,000 won]

“Are you happy?”

Crazy lol

Ah, hahaha, I can’t resist financial therapy.

Prajnaparamita Sutra: Just hang in there a little longer. I’ll treat you to something delicious tomorrow.
