A member asked:

Having chapatis and skipping rice helps weight loss?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Portion control: The bottom line is calories in, calories out. Limit your portions of food so that you burn more calories exercising than you take in while eating. If leaving out the rice helps, then it's the right move.
