I’ve heard of the book: “The Rice Diet Solution: The World-Famous Low-Sodium, Good-Carb, Detox Diet for Quick and Lasting Weight Loss” Has anyone tried it? Does it work? What is it like?
It’s just a variation on a starvation diet..you’ll lose a little water weight but that’ll be about it..then you’ll gain it all back plus a bunch more once you get so hungry you’ll eat your own foot! Stupid idea. Just stick to a 1200 calorie a day diet and hit the treadmill for 30 to 40 minutes a day..

No but fad diets do not work.
Eat only when hungry and not more than thrice a day. Nothing other than water in between. Include plenty of uncooked vegetables and fruits in each meal, preferably 50%.
Chew each morsel at least 32 times. Do not touch articles of food or the cutlery in between. This will activate ur body to generate strong signals of hunger/fullness. Obey these signals.
Take light exercises and brisk walks (minimum 20 min duration) regularly preferably twice a day.
U will achieve what u have not even dreamt and that too in a reasonable time. Do not be in a hurry. It is however to be noted that one cannot change the shape or size of different parts of the body.
umm… my dad didn’t read the book but he went on an all rice diet for a while and shedded weight.
