Filipinos cannot live without rice
Ok, it's true. Even stateside Filipinos eat rice daily. So to be healthy and slim, you don't really need to take all the rice away but keep it in moderation. I know some of you guys (you know who you are) have your entire plate full of rice stacking 2-3 inches high with a side of adobo, with the adobo juice drizzled all over the steamy hot rice. How about portioning your rice, and increasing your lean meats and your vegetables. Have the rice as the side and your ulam full (not greasy ulam, but good lean ulam).
It's not about eating less, its about eating less calories. You can actually eat more, while eating less calories. The trick is the low glycemic diet. Just google low glycemic diet. For example, aside from rice which is known to be high glycemic (it turns to sugar right away in the body), cooked carrots is high glycemic, while raw carrots is low glycemic.
Increase your veggies, and increase your lean meats, and you'll naturally keep your rice intake in its right portion so you can slim up and look fab.
