Even though we are doing Weight Watchers and going as low-carb as we can, I stocked up once again on brown rice and various dried beans with my grocery order this week. If it, ‘all goes to Biden’ I’m pretty sure I’ll lose weight naturally and will NEED added carbs as I scratch out sustenance with my own two hands! ;)

FWIW, and this is most likely due to the Avian Flu going around, but they had NO ‘Great Value’ 18 packs of eggs available. They have all the expensive ‘free range/organic’ eggs but I’ll be dipped if I’m going to pay $4 for a dozen eggs THIS soon. There’s no doubt in my military mind that we are heading in that direction, though. :(

I really need a flock of chickens again. I wonder how baby chick sales will be this year between people prepping where they can, and this chicken flu.

That said, I will check in the store when I pick up my order on Sunday. If they still don’t have eggs, I’ll hit the Kwik Trip. If Kwik Trip is out of eggs, we’re all screwed. :(

I bought a dozen jumbo eggs at Walmart Wednesday for $1.64.

I did wheat free at one point and lost a lot of weight that way even though I was eating rice, oatmeal, and corn (popcorn).

With my food allergies, I am stuck on oatmeal and still have lost a lot of weight. Oats are very nutritious and high in minerals. If you have to do a grain, oats are a good choice. They keep well, too

I do realize that brown rice has a lot of B vitamins but it can also go rancid easily. I keep mine frozen to prevent that.
