Welcome to the RD & the RD Forum!!!
If you read the following posts you will find most of what you need to know to get started before you get your book:
#1 THE RICE DIET SOLUTION-PHASE I & II
#2 Carb, Fruit and Vegetable List
#3 Bludaffodil's Menus
The 3rd one is just a sample of my daily menus to help whoever is having a hard time figuring out what to eat.
Other info:
1. We are allowed 1-2 tsp of olive oil (or canola) per day
as our added fat. (This includes oil in processed or packaged foods, too)
2. Drink 40 - 72 oz. of water daily
3. Limit consumption of salt, sodium, MSG and sodium
benzoate. On Detox days our daily limit is only
300 mg. On other rice days our daily limit is
between 500mg & 1,000mg. (w/ 500mg being the
optimal one)
4. If you eat cereal, make sure it has no more than:
2g fat, 10mg sodium, 6g sugar AND at least:
2g fiber
5. You can spread your foods out throughout the day
and not have just 3 meals.....just don't go over the
daily allottment OR eat everything at once!!! LOL
"Formulas" to follow:
1 starch=
1/3 c cooked rice or beans
1/2 c cooked for ALL other grains/pasta/corn/potato
1 slice whole grain bread
1/4 to 1c whole grain cereal
1 (non-starchy)vegetable=
1/2 c cooked
1c raw
1 fruit=
1c any fruit
1/2 banana
1 apple, orange or kiwi etc.
2 plums, or tangerines
1 TBS all-fruit jam/jelly etc.
1 TBS raisins
1 dairy=

1c fat-free yogurt/non-fat soy yogurt
1 protein=
1 oz. fish, lean meat or poultry
1/4 c beans
1 egg
3 egg whites
If you don't want the above foods for your protein on Protein Day, you can substitute 2 dairy for the 3 protein.
This is all I can think of for now. If you ever have any questions, post them on this Forum or e-mail me at

Have a great day & happy ricin',

PS At your leisure, I recommend that you read ALL the
posts on this Forum. I did when I started this dieta
and even though it took forever (LOL) it is well
worth it!!!
