Threetimesacharm 1,400 Posted January 27, 2013 So if your NUT said no rice; you are eating rice. At this point I guess you will decide what you want to do. Are you looking for validation here to say it is okay to eat rice? I think you should listen to the professionals, of which we are not. Good Luck 1 AmandaRaeLeo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you looking for validation here to say it is okay to eat rice? I think you should listen to the professionals, of which we are not. Good Luck miiszsexy i "think" Amazon meant to nicely say you should listen to what your NUT says, then you won't have any reason to question if you are going on the right path - but its always nice to receive a good luck encouragement, so i'm glad you received that its true none of are professionals, we're just normal, wonderful sleevers like you we give support and advice ,general conversation and good info too, and importantly we are here to support all - especially you Newbies - come on, come on - you know who you are!!!! when there is something more medical/technical involved, we suggest you see your doc/or NUT talk to your NUT about more suggestions to eat - at the beginning, and later too, it can be hard to get a good variety of food in but, i know you can conquer all- you ARE on that right path - no wrong turns allowed watch those road signs eating small portions, exercising, losing 27 lbs Kudos!!! talking to your NUT is always a good idea for info/reinforcement good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
O.T.R. sleever 3,386 Posted January 28, 2013 IMO, yes, you are headed down the wrong path. Remember the first few months are when you have the most rapid weight loss. I personally am 8months out & I still do not eat rice, bread, Pasta, potato, or fried foods. White carbs like these are immediatly turned into sugar, not to mention they trigger cravings for more of the like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
