eat oats, in the morning instead of cereal, add in some protein there, have some eggs with breakfast for gods sake!
Stay away from flavored rice, too much stuff in there you dont need, you could do better than white also, try brown rice.
carbs are not crap... include them in all your meals, along with fats, you can do without them in your last meal, but leave them in (at least in some capacity) in all others, carbs dont make you fat, excess calories do. Cut calories, not carbs.
