The Rice Diet

I reciently found out I might be alergic to gluten. When I lived in Korea for a year and lost 60 lbs, I did have some bread and a few potatoes but most the time ate rice , rice noodles and other forms of rice with a varity of vegtables and meats mostly chicken , pork and seafood, as beef is very expensive. The only exercise I got was walking 2.5 miles to and from school 5 days a week. I have been back a year and have gained most of the weight back. I have just started to eat more rice and rice product so I will see how it goes .
Being in Korea has taught me there are more ways to prepare rice than boiling it. and more types of rice than the long grain most of us are used to. "Poccum Bap" (fried rice patty" and "Kim Bap" (julianne veggies and meat rolled in rice and then wraped in seaweed, something like sushi) are great. It's just a different way of eating. Votes: +5

This diet sounds very much like the "Daniel fast" from the Bible. Read Daniel Ch. 1 Vs. 8 thru 17. Since this is the year for "repair, restoration and reward" why not prepare ourselves physically thru prayer and healthy eating. Daniel asked for only water, fresh fruits and vegetables for he and his three Isralite friends in the King's care. Votes: +5

I used the rice diet book in 1996 and lost 33 pounds in February. I did appreciate it for the reduction in sodium and forcing me to eat at the same time each day. I am infamous for eating only one meal a day. It is a lifestyle change not a diet. It's great (but not if you do not like bland food) :) Votes: +1
