poanoi Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Yes, i'm overweight and dont want to put effort into diet, So is there any low-carbo rice out there ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoonToong Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Not strictly 'low-carb', but if you eat brown (unprocessed rice) the body has to expend more energy in processing the carbohydrates and you also get more fibre in your consumption. (isn't it crazy that it costs more to buy rice that has been through LESS processing?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSixpack Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Fake it with cauliflower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeryble Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 If you want to lose weight just stop the rice.....and bread and sugars. Rice should be easy as it's about the most boring food known to man after posho meal. (I love to shock Thais by telling them I don't like rice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eeeya Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 White rice is poison. All the nutrients have been stripped off it. Jult like white bread. Stopping drinking for a bit works really well. I've lost 3 kg in 7 weeks. Sent from my HTC One X using Thaivisa Connect App Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Perhaps replace the rice with salads? I have been buying the prepared hydroponic salads with some ham or other meat/chicken mixed in and find them very tasty as main meal of day. Even cheap if you make yourself from bulk packs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobraSnakeNecktie Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Cauliflower blended as mentioned is solid idea. There is also these Yam noodles sold in stores called Konjak or Shirataki.. It has no net carbs but tastes kind of carby... Nce texture and it absorbs flavors well. Sold in all the supermarkets near the kim chi and pickled stuff. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shirataki_noodles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM4Me Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I quote from Wikipedia "According to the Canadian Diabetes Association, basmati rice has a "medium" glycemic index (between 56 and 69), thus making it more suitable for diabetics as compared to certain other grains and products made from white flour." Basmati is an Indian grown rice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheeryble Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Judging by the degree of motivation and determination in the OP and his enquiring questions since my guess is he is out having a cheeseburger with double fries.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
