Thread: Replacing white rice with brown

White Rice isn't fattening

you could try cooking up a bunch of Brown rice at the beginning of the week to use throughout the week.

What are your goals?

Brown rice is actually good for you. Slow burning carbs.

I would like to reduce my chubby cheeks and the fat around my waist. I would overall like to reduce my intake of fat. I lose about 200 cals on the treadmill daily though.

Brown rice contains more nutrition and fibre. The taste takes a little getting used to initially. It also takes longer to cook than white rice. You can eat it just as you would eat white rice.

Reduction of fat is all about diet in wherein total calories count. Yes you need to choose healthier foods and keep your fat intake reasonable. Have you checked the sticky 'guide to ...'? It is excellent in helping you put to gether an effective diet. Dont forget to train hard as well. Not just cardio.

hey salil - i have some indian friends - they eat white basmati rice. I also eat basmati rice in place of brown rice. from what i understand, white basmati rice is fine.

Do you think it is ok if I replace white rice with brown rice or is it so that it makes no difference? Is there a website that advises you on what to eat and has easy to cook meals?

Try Brown basmati rice, and stop eating the Naan.

Naan + Tandoori Chicken + some Raita on the side

Same is true with dark women, get busy with a few and you will lose your taste for boring white women.
