No.  Eating fiber rich foods like fruits and vegetables in place of low fiber foods would help you lose weight, though.  Fiber in real food helps you stay fuller longer and also keeps you regular.

No..if you really want to lose weight you got to excerise and eat healthy like for example: whole wheat breads and pastas, eat lots of fruits and vegetables, chicken and turkey are very good for you and drink lots of water at least 8 glasses a day..Stay away from junk foods and fast foods

Do not eat carbohydrate (rice, potato, bread, cookies, etc) at all !!!\nEat only vegetables and fruits. I highly recommend you to eat vegetables, because fruit contains some sugar which is not help you a lot to lose weight.\nThese are some low-calorie veggies : \nlettuce\ncarrots\ncelery\ncucumber\nasparagus\nbeets\ncabages\n\nand fruits : \nstrawberries and all the berries\ntomatoes\nkiwi fruit\ncherry\n\nThese are some meal plans for you :\nBREAKFAST : 4 strawberries, 1 kiwi fruit, 1 cup of tea/coffee without sugar, 1/2 cup of  natural non-fat yogurt\nLUNCH : you can only have salad and some grilled chicken breast or steamed fish. DO NOT eat salad with mayonaise, mustard, oil olive, etc. Just salad without any dressing.\nDINNER : Fruit salad with another 1/2 of yogurt dressing, or you can have some vegetables soup (Do not put any cream or milk on your soup, never!!)\nSNACK : Carrots and celery. Eat as much as you want, but only carrots and celeries.\nDRINKS : Water, green tea, and coffee without sugar. No soda, milkshake, cow milk, etc).\nDo not eat sweets (candies, chocolates, cookies). Do not have dessert. From now on all that you have are salad with steamed or grilled chicken breast and fish. \n\nTry to eat those things for 1 week. If it doesn't work, go extreme (I really don't suggest this actually, just in case that you'll have your mariage in 1 week). Eat 2 cups of natural and non-fat yogurt for a day and drink water. Eat 1/2 cup of yogurt for breakfast, 1 cup for lunch, and another 1/2 for dinner. Don't do this if it's not really necessary.

Just because you boil it does not mean it is any healthier when we are talking about carb intake. Rice (although not high in fat) is loaded with carbs. Once you consume those carbs they turn into sugar. We all know that sugar is bad for any type of diabetes. With everything moderation is the key. If you want to eat rice you can just eat about 1/2 cup. Then you can eat a serving of meat which is not high in carbs and some veggies. Just remember that all veggies are not the same. Corn, carrots, potatoes and peas are on the list for having high amounts of carbs.

Whenever i need to trim down for a vacation or a swimsuit outting i eat rice. dry rice with peas and other nice veggies. the rice will help keep you fuller a little longer, its good for you, there not a huge amount of calories in it either. \n\nalso i eat a smaller breakfast that usual. more fruits, maybe a little cereal, or maybe some toast and jam. nothing to make me feel full, just satisfied.\n\nI take a multi vitamin too, i just naturally am not a person who is hungry often, so incase i forget to eat something my body needs i try to make up for it in another way.\n\nand jogging. jogging is my secret. its just the best way there is to slim down. keeping your body in motion, and eating the calories you need to keep from starving, but not so many that you cant use them all. jogging is great for that. and i walk everywhere. constantly in motion. if i can do the laundy in one trip down the stairs, i make it a point to do it in two instead. that sort of thing. \n\ndepending on how heavy you are to begin with i usually can tell that iam slimming down in a couple weeks. but thats just my body.

IF you are trying to loose weight, then yes its very taboo!  Drink a lot of water to curb the craving.  IF that doesn't work, then pick something lite-like a bowl of cereal.  You don't want to eat anything high fat late at night, your body won't burn it off.

the long grain and wild rice is much better for you in terms for whole grain.  I think you get noodles made out of wheat flour too.  Avoid eating regular noodles everyday, too many carbs and starch

Cut all processed food and watch the weight fly off! In other words, shop only on the outer rim of the Supermarket :). Eat veggies, fruit, unprocessed meat, low fat dairy. Stay AWAY from white sugar, white flour, corn syrup. If you can't hunt it or gather it, don't eat it! I lost 30 lbs eating this way. You would be amazed how much better you feel once you cut out sugar and white flour! You will have much more energy. Substitute your sugar intake with Stevia (300X sweeter than sugar) and no calories or carbs! It is natural and does not raise the glycemic index. Good LUCK!!

Drinking/sipping .. Not guzzling .. water throughout your meal is a good thing. It will not cause you to become "fat" as water doesnt contain fat. It will however, fill you up. Especially if eaten rice because it will expand inside your stomach.\n\nIf anything drinking excess water with your meal will help you to lose weight because you will eat less.\n\nThis is not a recommended dietry tip.

Yes it is enough.\nIf you eat about 1200 calories a day.\nfor example\nMorning: a piece of toast and a little cheese (20grms.)\nSnack:   an apple\nLunch: 200 grms cooked! vegetables 100 - 150 grms. chicken or other meat or fish (grilled or boiled), some salad (homemade dressing, no oil)\nSnack: another piece of fruit\nDinner: one piece of bread and some cheese or an egg\n\nDrink plenty of water and avoid fat and sugar\n\nI did this and I lost 9 kg in one month\n\nWhen the body gets used to the smaller amount of food, loosing weight slows down, but you will still loose.\n\nWhen you follow this plan, you will stay healthy.\n\nTry to exercise as well, but not too much, as you might have sugar cravings.\n\nIn any case you should check if you are healthy before you start any kind of diet.\n\nIf you are not sure you should talk to your family doctor.\n\nHope this helps.

If by "raw" you mean dry uncooked, unsoaked, I would venture to say not a good idea.\n\nHowever, I eat uncooked rice, only sprouted/soaked in water for 24-48 hours. This softens it up enough to eat, and removes the enzyme inhibitors that raw dry rice (or any grain for that matter) has that is so very bad for your body. \n\nAvoid any unsprouted grains whenever possible. The enzyme inhibitors wreak havoc on the body's main means of communication within itself. Enzymes. These are how our organs and our system as a whole remain in communication with itself. Remove the means of communication, and you damage the system.

Certainly, as long as you are eating healthy cereal with lots of vitamins, minerals and don't forget about your protein. Adding whole fruits like berries, melons, apples or bananas would be helpful as well. Ceareals are a great low fat alternative and great for weight loss. However, in the long term it would be best to add a least one regular meal a day to your diet.
