Default Any SEAsian/rice-addict low-carbers out there?

I'm half Thai half Filipino so rice is a major part of my diet. Giving it
up cold turkey (as Jake suggested) would take a lot of will-power on my
part! (Butter and fish sauce on rice? =:-o! Then again, I like toasted
mochi with butter and sugar...)


I'm 1/2 korean so I understand eating rice daily. Just give it up or figure
the carb count into your daily alloted carb total.

If you really don't want to give it up, make it work for you. It can be
done.

Exercise a bit more daily. Do whatever you must to allow yourself the one
bowl of rice daily. That way you are learning to live with the food you
love.

The key is moderation. IMHO. If you find you cannot limit your rice
intake, then bite the bullet and give it up until you reach your weight
goal.
