Heh. Well, after seeing that... I may just skip rice entirely.

But if I do have rice again, I will make it brown.

- Its never about how much you can lift, or how many reps you do. Its just about doing it, and doing it right.
- If your hungry all the time, your not eating enough. And anyways, being hungry sucks.

WI just looked at the back of the bag of Uncle Bens Plain White rice.

For half a cup (125ml):

350+ Calories
11 Grams of fat
50+ Carbs

Holy. Crap.

I always thought rice was a light food. Guess not!

Plus white rice is heap big sugar!! Use brown rice, full of fiber and good b vitamins, carbs that you can use.

The nurtitional value of white rice is just a little better than the box it comes in.
