Is eating less rice will make you slimmer?

[ross24]

I am replacing rice with oat bran to start my no rice diet. Tapos sa gabi cereal or anything basta walang rice. Di ko kasi kaya walang rice nahihilo ako.
With oat bran nabubusog pa din ako.

Anyone na nag-ooat bran din? Effective ba syang alternate ng rice?

[artificialstar]

half a cup per meal yung rice intake ko. effective naman. i don't feel as "fat" anymore. mas lalong nakaka slim if sabayan ng exercise

[akthung]

starvation yan. yes you will lose WEIGHT. both muscle and fat and others.

pero hindi long term yan. baka magkasakit ka pa.

best pa din is a balanced diet.

you just need to know to eat right and train right.

mas mahirap pa yan pag may sakit nang inaalagaan.

Sobrang helpul sa akin ang no eating rice (for already 4 1/2 years), when I got pregnant then I gave birth hindi ganun kalaki ang timbang na-gain ko at medyo madali ko nakuha ang pre pregnancy weight ko unlike with my 2nd baby after 2 years ako bago pumayat.

[V_for_Victoria]

I know some people who gave up rice, but replaced them with bread, pasta, doughnuts, and pretzels. Then wondered bakit hindi pumayat. Nyek.

Eat brown rice na lang, you'll feel fuller while eating just half a cup.

[Myealexis21]

For me Yes.  Nakatulong talaga ang less rice.

this is the reason why I am 20 lbs lighter now. I started my "no rice" diet last april 11 to be exact. it was hard kasi as in biglang tinanggal ko ang rice, walang moderation stage, as in cut agad ang rice intake.

it was so hard at first pero sobrang nadedepress na ako sa comments ng ibang tao, pati clothes ko di na kasya, i need to buy new clothes pa para lang may maisuot ako. sinabayan ko rin ng moderation in food intake, basta walang rice. less eating moments din sa gabi. pero no exercise, wala akong patience and determination to exercise.

during the first month feeling ko di gumagana, wala kasing nakakapansin na pumapayat ako, though nararamdaman ko naman na kahit papaano lumiliit na katawan ko. di pa rin ako nag-give up, inisip ko kasi natiis ko ng one month na walang rice, ngayon pa ba ako magba-backout. madaming fiestahan, gatherings and family occasions ang dumaan, pero puro ulam at desserts lang kinakain ko.

then came june, biglang "WOW" ang payat ko! yes, everybody commented na ang laki ng pinayat ko at bigla daw ako pumayat. di sila makapaniwala na 2 months na akong di nag-rice. lumiit mukha ko, arms, waist and legs ko. nasusuot ko na mga lumang damit, lalo na yung mga old jeans ko. i am so happy.

came july, i am still on a no rice diet, though kapag masarap ang ulam i'll take 1-2 tablespoons of rice. pero di ko pa rin dinedeprive sarili ko sa mga favorite foods ko like ice creams, chocolates, burgers, fattening foods talaga. but i was able to maintain my weight. basta wala muna talagang rice.

and yes eating less rice definitely made me slimmer

^How inspiring! Motivates me to stick to this no rice diet. I still have 8 more pounds of baby weight to go. I actually eat clean -- no sodas, fast food, beef/pork, I check transfats, oils, try to eat organic often, and etc. so I don't know what to cut from my diet anymore. So eto, try, try to cut rice. Gustuhin ko man samahan with exercise, it's just so difficult to find time for it between work, caring for a baby, and family life!

Bakit nga ba hindi pa na-co-correct yung grammar sa title ng thread na 'to? Haha. Anyway, sana ako din maka-lose ng something like 20 pounds on this diet!

[sacred cow]

limiting starchy carbs especially rice will really make you lose weight since yan ang pinakamatagal tunawin ng katawan.
replacing rice with breads, pretzels and pasta is also not good. mas maganda pang eliminate mo na lang muna mga yan at processed foods sa diet mo
if you want to lose weight. I do intermittent fasting, wherein I take my carbs from veggies during my undereating phase and then
have a cup of rice (pref. during workout days) or sometimes none during the evening kapag overeating phase na.
I refrain from eating rice unless it's chinese fried rice (yang chow, salted fish) or walang choice talaga kasi it's the most
convenient to eat at that time

Sis you need to couple it with exercise.  Kahit yung 10minutes lang - I tried the 10min exercises by Jessica Smith TV.  You can do this every morning before you start your day, kapag tulog pa lahat sa house or before you go to bed.  Or increase your steps everyday --- meaning walk more, use the stairs, etc.  Yan form of exercise na rin yan.

this is my 3rd day sa no rice diet. sana maging successful ako. 190lbs na ako when i checked. its really hard lalo na kasi sanay na ako sa rice. this morning, i noticed yung skirt ko hindi na sya mahirap isuot hehe, and its not too tight as i remember. could it be? 

[fragmentedmind]

Back in 2009, I lost almost 20 lbs in less than 2 months just by completely cutting out rice and soda from my diet. I also lowered my portions. Example, kung sa labas ako kakain, lagi kelangan merong matirang maliit na portion sa plato ko pag kumakain ako. Deliberately akong nagtitira at hindi inu-ubos ang pagkain. Hirap gawin nun since I was trained by my parents na dapat malinis ang plate pag kumakain kasi sayang ang food. Walang exercise yun. As in walang exercise.

I managed to maintain that for about a year and a half. Kaso when I started eating rice again (due to sunod sunod na weddings ng mga friends ko na buffet ang style ang kainan at hindi ako makapag-pigil).I gained it all back. Once I started eating again, parang may dam na nasira at tuloy-tuloy na ulit yung pagkain ko ng rice.

So now, I exercise and started cutting my rice intake again. So far, medyo mahirap. Kasi nasanay na ulit yung katawan ko sa rice.

Ang hirap pala ang no rice diet ang bilis ko magutom. Actually 1 time na lang ako nagririce for this week pero I think naka 3 time ako intake ng softdrinks can help it din kasi esp kapag may handaan dito sa office. But nagjojog naman ako ng mga 2-3x a week plus currently naguundergo ako ng Lipocav & RF session. Maging successful kaya? Di naman ako overwieght bloated lang talaga tummy ko at mas naggain ako ng weight when I stopped going to gym last year
