Rice Meal

Being Asian, rice is a big part of my diet, and is something I can't give up. One time, I tried to take it away of my diet, and after four days, I went crazy and went back eating it.

This was a breakfast I made last August; using leftover rice, canned corned beef and a sunny side up egg. However, it's been quite a while since I last had rice for breakfast - it has been said that breakfast has to be the heaviest meal of the day, but it is the lightest meal for me, because I eat my breakfast between 7:30 and 8:30 in the morning, and I do my first workout around 9:00 or 9:30 in the morning depending on the time I had my breakfast. My heaviest meal is lunch, where I eat 2/3 cup of rice. Dinner, I try to go for 1/2 cup of rice... but at times I go for 2/3 cup as well.

Whether it's Java Rice, Garlic Rice, Yang Chow Fried Rice, or the simple Steamed Rice... whether people tell me to watch my carbs, I still cannot give up my rice. I can only moderate my intake.
