Can you diet by just eating plain rice, and nothing else?

Question

Obviously this would be a short time thing, but would you be able to lose weight quite quickly?

Answer 1

Mmm... I don't think so. Rice makes you gain weight.. Try.. not eating rice. Eat a lot of raw veggies.... try baby carrots and nothing else.. haha jk.. that probably won't be too healthy.

Answer 2

This is not a good idea! Rice is a sugar base food, in other
words your body will metabolize the rice as sugar. Good
nutrition is the key to maintaing good health and also will
contribute to your goal of weight loss. Rice is fine, preferably
brown rice and even that in moderation! Limit your sugar
intake and replace with fruit and vegetables. Get daily
excersise in a form that you like ie. sports, swimming,
walking, possibly joining a gym. That is the way to go.
Even if you ate rice for a few days you need vitamins and
all you'll lose is fluid not fat. You need to 'burn' fat by stoking
your body with enough calories to get your metabolism
running properly. GL

Answer 3

Sure you'd lose weight quickly...and gain it back within a couple of days of going off the diet...not to mention you'd be very nutritionally deprived meaning your body would choose to eat your muscle instead of your fat for nutrients...BAD plan dude...

Answer 4

rice is a grain so you would not be getting a full spectrum of essential nutrients. with out taking in sufficient proteins and fats you will lose weight most will be muscle mass and and the rest will be fat.

Answer 5

you would lose weight quickly, however, it isn't very nutrionest. Make sure you take daily supplements. You are better off eating brown rice, more nutrionist.
