Weight loss tip number 12 and 13:
12:
Avoid white flour. (expanding on tip number 9)  You might find it difficult to cut white flour out totally; especially if you eat out once in a while. You can cut it way down though by avoiding it at home. Instead of white flour try using whole wheat, whole grain, or at least unbleached healthier flour.
Also use wheat or whole grain bread and buns.

13:
Avoid white rice. (expanding on tip number 9) Instead of white rice try using brown rice. It has a lot more fiber and nutrients.
