I have like $15 for the next 5 days so I’ve been eating nuts for breakfast and brown rice with steamed carrot and tofu for dinner the last few days. It’s keeping me alive but I think I’m getting too much fibre because my shits are getting thinner and thinner. I don’t really wanna shit water for the next week, what’s the cheapest food I can use to bung myself up. I’m thinking just buy a loaf of the cheapest bread I can find and munch a few slices dry here and there. I’ll need to buy some more rice/tofu over the weekend, should have enough left for some bread.

PS. The only way I can cook rn is steaming, the only kitchenware I could afford until next payday was a rice cooker that I can steam stuff in too.

    Idk if fibre is your problem exactly, you might just be sensitive to the sudden change in diet. In general stuff with soluble fibre can help firm things up a bit, what you seppos call squash is a good candidate but might be costly? Canned savoury pumpkin like Kent?

    Sprouting the rice might make it easier to digest? Brown rice will sprout.

    Loperamide is on the WHO list of essential medicines and consequently cheap. Will work to allieviate diarrhea.
