MAGGIE asked in HealthDiet & Fitness · 9 years ago

I eat a lot of white rice and noodles with healthy sides. Will I gain weight?

For meals, I know that pasta and white rice isn't that good but that's all my mom cooks and I always eat it with lots of veggies and tofu and shrimp and fish and some meat sometimes. I also always have fruit as dessert. Is this still considered healthy and will keep me slim/lean and healthy?

    It sounds healthy to me! Just remember small portions, and stay active!

    compute your daily calories, loosing weight below 1000 carbs, maintain 2000 carbs, gain weight above 2000 carbs per day, as i know 1cup of rice is equivalent to 300 to 500 carbs

    if you are active and don't sit around all day i think you'll be fine :) but, switching to wholewheat/multigrain pasta's and rice would benefit you much more...
