Anon - I can tell you as a man who goes low/no carbs every time I hit 225lbs until I get down to 185-190....

I've taken physicals hung over, hours after eating a plate of bacon and sausage and an energy drink. I was supposed to fast since the night before. My blood pressure couldn't be more perfect. Out of over a hundred people, the nurse made a point to say my cholesterol ratio (Good/Bad) was probably the best one she'd seen. Glucose levels were 2x better than "Target". I was, on paper, the healthiest person there (or at least in the conversation).

That was after drinking 15-20 drinks (Whiskey/Diet Coke) until 3am, waking up at 7 and eating a pile of greasy salty meat, and doing the testing at 10am or so.

I'd cut the rice and try a true low/now carb diet for a while, just so you can feel the difference. Once used to it, you can usually get by eating once a day with some snacking here and there. The thing is though, you never feel "Starving", but you also can eat a 2 pound steak and a salad with eggs, bacon, cheese, and ranch dressing, and you won't have the "Bloated, can't move" food coma that comes after a normal bowl of pasta and 3 pieces of bread.

I heard it's great for your teeth and a shitload of other side benefits as well.
