Hi anons. Today marks the 365th day of my rice and beans adventure and I have to admit, it worked pretty well. All up I only spent 200 dollars for a years supply by buying them in bulk (technically a little more because i ran out of sauces quicker than I expected). Why doesn't everyone do this? I easily saved over 5 grand and am ecstatic!

That just seems unhealthy. Whats the point OP? No nutrients, too little protein.

Rice and beans is perfectly fine to live on, that's basically what mexicans do. I would want to take a multivitamin if I were refusing to eat ANY fruits or vegetables as a challenge, but shit is fortified in this country anyway so it probably already has everything you need

buy flour and bake bread instead
flour is far more nutritious.

Wait what? You ate rice and beans only for an entire year? How the fuck are you even alive?

No iodine? D3? B12? Omegas? Too little protein?

This is like a poverty starvation diet did you at least eat some eggs? I would pay 10 grand to NOT eat like this fuck savings of you need to malnourished your body..

Are you seriously saying that you ONLY ate rice and beans for a year? Because I know for a fact you fucking didn't.

I'm assuming you just cut a lot of shit and substituted a lot of meals with rice and beans but phrased it in a way to grab attention. Admit this and we can have a conversation. Otherwise nobody's gonna believe this, obviously.

This is actually what happens. The hospitals get that money back by charging more to the insurance companies who in turn charge more to their people. American healthcare has been socialized for a long time now, just in the worst possible manner.

Saving for a house. There's plenty of protein in beans (1 can per day = 68% of recommended DI).

>>15909714
There were a couple of "cheat" meals per month due to social obligations but yeah pretty much. I tried eggs a few times but i didn't like the consistency.

Same as the year before. Streches, pushups and situps. I didn't notice any gains or losses. Some days I felt "flatter" than other days but overall everything was fine.
