my understanding if you want to loose weight fast, meaning a couple of pounds per week you need to limit your carbs and eat more protein. Protein will eat your fat in your body. Eat about 5 small meals a day. Your goal should be set at 50 Carbs, 100 or more Protein and only 40 grams of Fats. !000-1200 cals and If you combine this with with a day work out even better.

Carbs, even starchy foods like carrots. potatoes, banana's all will spike your blood sugar just like candy. You will feel the high with a fast drop in your blood sugar which mean you will be tired and will process your food to fast. That's not what you want you need. For this reason you need to eat more protein to fuel your body evenly through the day. Once your body feels hungry you start burning off your muscle. Brown, white rice, pasta and even bread is all carbs and does nothing for your body but adds on more fat and feds off your muscles.

Oh, and if you eat any carb combine it with protein. It will keep you full and help your body eat off it's fats.

I always eat carbs with protein always!

Yes you can. You do have to measure the amount. It is surprising how much volume you get in just a 1/2 cup of rice. Plus there is more nutrients in rice than in a potato.
