haha ako rin sis.. kaya natin to.. I am overweight na... im 70KG already for 5'1 I am freaking fat

[mrsdee]

rice-lover here. di ko rin kaya without rice. I feel like pag no-rice ako, magba-binge ako after a few days, so na-gain ko na naman yung same weight na na-lose ko. parang easier for me to maintain yung 1cup of rice once a day. or half-cup of rice 2x a day.

sabayan na rin ng workout para mas mabilis ang weight loss diba? sabi nga fat loss is 80% what you eat and how you eat, and 20 % physical activity.

kaya natin to sis chicafabulosa =) ako inom ng inom ng tubig tapos for lunch kanina ulam lang kinain ko, d ko na talaga tiningnan yung rice para d ako matempt. hehe

go go go dieters!!! In my experience, less rice and carbs  is really effective---but  try not to cut it out completely because the cravings get too much! kain pa rin but konti lang. In my expereince it was exercise that really changed my body shape...My weight loss is just 12 lbs---pero Ive gone down two dress sizes!!!! kaka sayaw---lakad---takbo  whatever takes my fancy day to day, basta I make sure I move!!!

good luck sa atin!

[chicafabulosa]

hehe yey two days of no rice..... from 70 kg now dropped to 68 kg 

[tikitakz]

^ wow sis ang bilis ah 2kilos agad na-lose mo ako i eat only 1 cup rice a day, half cup of rice for lunch and dinner, hindi ko kaya ang wala, i tried it before 7 days ako tumagal na walang rice, i lost 10lbs pero after a month bumalik ako sa normal eating habits, bumalik din ang weight kaya now i try to limit my rice intake na lang. not only rice but all forms of carbohydrates. effective talaga for losing weight kapag kaunti ang intake ng rice

[chicafabulosa]

yes medyo mabilis. kasi yun ang major enemy ko... RICE.. now that i cut it down (but I still eat naman minsan..just like now I ate half cup this morning and half this lunch.. that means no rice sa dinner na). and it really makes me feel lighter and napansin ko lumiit tyan ko. now weight ko is 67 kg na. Lost another 1 kg

[iluvmysoldier]

ako totally walang rice talaga since monday pero bat ganon parang wala namang nangyari? 

[gab54]

dieting is not something instant, pag instant u usually just lose water. to lose fat, it will take time. and sad to say, diet should be a lifestyle change, not just temporary thing...

[chicafabulosa]

ako totally walang rice talaga since monday pero bat ganon parang wala namang nangyari? 

depends kasi yan sis.. like sa akin i am sure mas mataba ako sayo so mas mabilis makita ang paglose ko. but as i lose, mas bumabagal rin yan... then also try to do some light exercises

[atrabida]

48th day ko na nawalang rice, kanina may arroz caldo at suman, hindi ko rin kinain kasi once na makatikim ako tingin ko bibigay ako at bka masira no-rice diet ko

[chicafabulosa]

sis atrabida - how many lbs you lost already?

[iluvmysoldier]

wala talagang changes kahit isang guhit man lang pero sabi ni yaya pumayat na daw mukha ko at lumiit tyan ko. pwede ba yun?

nahihilo na ko pero ayoko na talaga kumain ng rice 

[cynique]

^i agree, just eat 1 cup of rice a day, only at lunch, preferably brown rice 
for breakfast, eat wholewheat bread with peanut butter; for dinner non-fat yogurt will do...eat snacks like oatmeal cookies in between; drink 2 liters of water the whole day

we should not eat too much rice, our body really doesn't need it, here are more reasons why and how can we avoid eating more rice http://www.tastydestination.com/2012/05/why-we-should-avoid-too-much-rice.html

[mrs.S.]

Eating less rice will not make you slimmer. Controlling what you eat will. Most balance meals would still require you to eat carbs or else your body will hold on to more fat kasi it will think na you're on hunger strike.

Just think Americans prefer breads and potatoes but Asian eat rice. But obesity is a big issue in the US. Refined carbs are more fattening like white rice kaya they suggest brown rice and whole grains.

I still eat white rice but fortunately I like brown rice too. But regular exercise helped me control my weight more than just purely dieting. Diets dont burn your fat, moving your butt will 

[Margaritabythebeach]

Yes it does, it works well for me.  I stopped white rice and I only eat red rice, wheat bread and camote. 

[chicafabulosa]

@margarita ako rin. when i cut down my rice intake (all carbs nga i try to avoid it. white carbs) i lost 10 lbs na in two weeks time. and keep on losing weight. lakas ko kasi kumain ng rice haha. and without even exercising i keep on losing weight also i cut down my junk foods, sodas, sweets. water lang ako as much as possible
