 You have to prepare food in a way that you love to eat it. Now, rice can be a part of any diet. And the way that I've done it, you know, as a type 2 diabetic, I have to follow a low carb diet five days a week. Now, on the weekends, I have figured out that I can have my potatoes, I can have my brownies, I can have my rice, and I can eat those foods, and I indulge myself, and I don't miss it when I go back to a delicious set of meals on the weekdays. I'll eat a steak every day.
