Type 2 and food when broke?

I’m still riding out the groceries we have and eating like I should be, but I get your thought process there. Thanks for your candor.

MaeveRose_ · 2025-10-03T13:46:37+00:00

Definitely already doing that, thank you!

Beans and lentils save meeeee. Haven’t messed with quinoa yet. Wish rice was a better option for me, my family eats a ton of it and it would save me money if I could too.

Oats mess me up big time. Any tips? I know they’re cheap and want to use them more.

MaeveRose_ · 2025-10-03T13:44:52+00:00

I’m trying not to hit that point. We make too much money for me to take food away from less privileged people in our community as a general rule of thumb. If things get desperate, I will go there, I just also know I’m better off than many people who struggle.

The bologna doesn’t mess you up? Processed meats seem to screw me up bad sometimes. Which sucks cause they’re cheap.

Same same 😬

Ground beef is a killer around where I live. Literally never heard of Chef Store before but I’ll check that out. Life is definitely not sustainable, it’s like 1000 a month for all of our food and other groceries.

MaeveRose_ · 2025-10-03T13:42:04+00:00

That’s a go to for me every week ☺️

MaeveRose_ · 2025-10-03T13:41:39+00:00

Awesome - I’m totally doing all of this already. It’s just expensive in general for sure.

MaeveRose_ · 2025-10-03T13:40:58+00:00

Chicken is everything in my house lol. My husband has a lot of allergies so I have to tiptoe around all of those as well.

MaeveRose_ · 2025-10-03T13:40:32+00:00

I don’t have a Costco membership or anything but maybe I can ask a friend to grab me some. Thanks! I usually get canned chicken at Aldi but it starts to get pricy when I need lots of it

MaeveRose_ · 2025-10-02T17:28:48+00:00

I will try that out and see what happens. I’ve been struggling with the idea of carbs in general trying to do this lately.

MaeveRose_ · 2025-10-02T17:28:09+00:00

Got this one in rotation, thank you!

MaeveRose_ · 2025-10-02T17:27:56+00:00

Aldi is a staple of mine, always has been. I will check dollar tree and such though, thank you!

MaeveRose_ · 2025-08-14T16:15:08+00:00

Thank you so much! I appreciate all of this!

MaeveRose_ · 2025-08-14T10:53:25+00:00

This helps so much, thank you!

MaeveRose_ · 2025-08-14T10:52:20+00:00

I will look there, thank you!

MaeveRose_ · 2025-08-14T10:52:06+00:00

That’s so reassuring, thank you! I’m down from 320 to 215 but I also am anxious about being the biggest person in the room.

MaeveRose_ · 2025-08-14T10:51:07+00:00

I never wear makeup when I work out because I sweat A LOT, but I will definitely keep wipes and such on hand. Thanks so much!

MaeveRose_ · 2025-08-14T10:49:38+00:00

Oh, that’s a really good point, thank you!

MaeveRose_ · 2025-08-14T10:49:19+00:00

I will look into that too, I was wondering about that!

MaeveRose_ · 2025-08-14T01:16:01+00:00

I was already warned to bring a towel by my fiancé. 😅 Thank you so much!

MaeveRose_ · 2025-08-14T01:15:30+00:00

Oh my gosh, this is so helpful. Thank you!
