To lose weight, it is advisable to leave rice, but if you are fond of rice, it becomes very difficult to give up. However, if you are trying to lose weight it is important to eat rice in a proper manner as it is rich in carbohydrates which makes you fat. Take a look at some tips which help you lose weight without giving up rice.
Eat rice in a single meal
Try to have only one serving of rice in a single meal. This will reduce your calorie intake because the amount of carbohydrates in rice is already high, so do not eat anything else in the food plate that has carbs.
Cook rice with vegetables
Add your favorite vegetables to rice. Vegetables contain a lot of protein and fiber, which will help keep your stomach full for longer. To make rice healthy, you can add beans, capsicum, broccoli, tofu, cheese and chicken etc.
Do not fry rice
Do not fry rice or mix it with any cream. Always cook it by boiling it with water. When cooking rice, throw away the excess water. This will remove the starch present in the rice.
Eat Brown Rice
If you want to eat rice twice a day, then eat brown rice instead of white rice, which reduces the amount of fat and starch, which helps control weight.
