Hello?

Hello IST I'm currently in japan and unsure about my diet.
I want to cut right now but everything is served with rice basically. And the food in general is so different.

Any recommendation for meals I could cook on a budget here?

    I thought rice = bad but it's actually great to fill up on, just 1.1 cal/g
    meats are usually 2-3

      Thought the same that's why I was asking.
      That's good then, can't really get around eating rice a lot here it feels like.

    You're moronic. Milk, eggs, chicken, fish and pork are plentiful and cheap. If you don't want rice dont cook it you spastic.

      Okay thanks for the input!
      Also I don't think pork and fish and milk are that cheap here, chicken sure tough.

        If chicken is cheap then I guess chicken, rice and broccoli is a your true fate.
        Also shop for everything discounted as with everywhere else. Do you have a freezer?

          That's all good then because carbs make you thin and fat makes you fat. Eat HCLF with plenty of lean animal protein. Weight loss is too fricking easy.

          Sounds like a plan then, do have a freezer.
          Any ideas for dinner though? I'm currently at oats for breakfast, meat + rice for lunch, but no idea what to do for dinner other than more rice + whatever

            Maybe you can make some curry with chicken and vegetables, I'm not really a good or inspiring chef so I tend to stick to home made slop.

      i live in japan too and basically get most of my protein from seafood
      in japan generally you want to cook yourself because almost everything contains soi
      also the food you should eat is the same worldwide, see except replace pork with beef
      avoid japanese goyslop like ramen if you're cutting. sushi is probably great for cutting

        Guess my imagination is the real issue here

        Tokyo Kita-ku chad here. I eat Chikuwa for gainz. Its literally whitefish and eggwhites.
        Besides that, chicken breast is 2kg for 1200 yen at 業務 and rice is cheap.
        Its literally so easy to cut and bulk here, switched to pork to bulk.

        Oh that's cheap as frick ill go tomorrow. Been shopping at OK mart so far.
        Also chikuwa sounds interesting do you also buy that at gyomu or do you make it yourself?

          I just buy Hanpen actually. Its in flat containers and even at MyBasket 110g is 98 yen + tax (98kcal, 9g protein)

          As for chicken, online stores are just as cheap, even Amazon sells it. 2kg for 1870yen, frozen. Or 12kg (2kgx6) for 8000 yen if you're okay with Brazilian chicken. Freezer is probably too small though.

          I get paid a lot so I get the 選り取りセール at my local shop and get 1200g fresh ササミ for 1080 yen.

          If you arent here on a working holiday use ふるさと納税 to get a tax reduction for buying stuff.

    Why are the texts on the screen instead of printed on the paper?

        Eggs are decently priced, at least at San-A, chicken meat is cheap, check the scraps of fish (like tuna) that they brand for tempura, it's cheap and full of protein, just cook it first. Milk is expensive so get some whey you can drink with water

        I'm in Okinawa

    Natto has about 8g per 50g at 93 kcal and comes in a 3 pack for 90ish yen

      Can you eat that much natto ? 50g on top of rice is doable otherwise it's too disgusting

        It's actually not all that bad once you get used to it

        Also incredibly healthy. But yes more of a side thing I guess.

    Hey brother a good rule of thumb is to cover your main macronutrients:

    Carbs, protein, lipids, sugar, vitamins, minerals, and water

    If you don't eat meat for religious reasons, you can go with foods like fungus and seaweed, if you would rather avoid the phytoestrogens in basedbeans.

    If you do eat meat, lean meats that are low in fat are good for muscle building, but natural lipids from meat are important to your diet. Fish, beef, pork, wild game, and similar meats are good for this.

    All of these nutrients are naturally sourced from the surrounding environment in traditional diets. So your best bet is a traditional diet, whatever that means for you.
