True, but the trick then is to avoid bankruptcy.

Oatmeal with thawed milk from some dairy farmer friends with locally picked
apples. All the restaurants I have eaten at make food that is greasy and
usually salty. Dinersty will leave out the salt on request. Chinese
restaurants will often steam food instead of frying it. We cook without salt.
Tios food is to us inedible. It takes me three days to recover form eating
in a restaurant and have the salt come back out of me. At least the hospital
food was mostly not salty (just peppery).

Lunch was a tuna sandwich - 6 oz. of Starkist light tuna between two
slices of high-fiber bread, mayonaisse added - and a fresh veggie salad
with homebrewed oil and vinegar dressing. Apple for dessert.
As usual, the cats demanded their share as soon as I had opened the
tuna can.

resp:383 indeed, but read on...
still, I'm supposedly geeked about bacon pancakes at M-Net!
resp:385 note, I'm watching fat, too. lots of salad at lunch.
resp:386 no, it's not going to be a habit... really.
resp:387 me too.
resp:388 true. And when the hell did I say I was eating a lot of
biscuits and jelly donuts, hmmm? Brown rice doesn't keep too well,
but I can consider it for dinner. Right now I need to eat the white
rice in storage.
resp:389 in general, that's why I'm learning to avoid them
altogether... and I think my wallet will thank me for it.
I'm not even going to bother mentioning lunch... because I don't need
the grief today. I was going to have just coleslaw again (even though
it's not terribly filling) but Julie put banana peppers in it (oh
damn, I can't wait for the M-Net parody on this one) which put a bite
in it.
Dinner is steak over rice again-- using what we have in our storage.
Two things, folks. First of all, I gained a lot of friggin' weight
because of that lovely drug, Depakote. Yeah, I'm bipolar (You can
kiss my ass making jokes about that). Second, most low-carb diets are
not meant to be long-term things. I would like to return to maybe
eating groats or something like that for breakfast because I'm sick of
eating eggs every single day. Dinners are good, but eggs... man, I
hope somebody is parodying that, not to mention the endless lunches of
salads or my silly gorges of Chinese buffet. Preach on.

I think you'll find that brown rice keeps at least as long as white in the
refrigerator. And I've never had a problem with letting it sit in a covered
pan most of the day to eat from as a snack.

Jak, whatever works for you is good. I agree about low-carb diets,
I've been skeptical, and besides, don't think I could live with one. I
love my carbs too much.
And I don't thinkg you need to apologise to anyone about your diet, or
explain it. It's your food. I was just curious, because it seemed to
me that a lot of it was not conventional "diet" food. (I haven't kept
up with the new diets and theories out there. I'm a believer of eat
less, eat healthy and exercise. But then I do realise that I'm lucky
that I have the time to spend at the gym everyday. I know it's not a
good solution for everybody)

Are you talking about Brown vs. White in how long it stores on a shelf, or
once it's been cooked?

We buy brown rice 50 pounds at a time and store it unrefrigerated. Even
though it contains more oil than white rice it keeps longer because the rice
is live seeds. Brown rice flour would probably go rancid if left
unrefrigeratored for a long time, as does whole wheat flour in sores in small
towns where it does not sell well.
Any diet based primarily on meat is going to be high fat.

[this spot graciously and rampantly parodied by the folks at M-Net]
...and sometimes the jester has much to say.
You know, Sindi, for a skinny woman, you've got a lot of nerve
preaching to a fat boy. I understand you're probably thinking you're
helping, as you live a great lifestyle... but I'm not sure you've
struggled.
No, I've had some meds do funky things to my weight up and down, so
it's not just the eating.
And you're not listening at all. You hear "low-carb" and
assume "mostly meat." Not necessarily. It's been lots of breakfasts
of eggs, eggs, eggs. Lunches have been endless salads, and when I
failed to get creative, sometimes my willpower failed me and I made a
poor eating choice. Other days, it was "gee, that coleslaw wasn't very
filling." Dinner is pretty balanced, though. I get a chance to eat
plenty of vegetables and full-fiber grain... because dinner isn't
supposed to be low-carb, per se. I explained all of this in
the "mynxcat wants to be svelte" item.
Now people may think I am probably unnecessarily justifying myself.
But... I think I've said my peace.
