Cauliflower rice. That's what I eat now. It doesn't fill you up like real rice and it doesn't taste as nice and it wouldn't fool anyone with lips or a tongue or eyes. And it goes everywhere and is a pain to cook.
I use one large cauliflower for two people, try not to grate too much stalk, it seems to add bitterness. Soften (but don't let brown) a small diced onion first in a touch of coconut oil, add cauliflower with a couple of tablespoons of desiccated coconut, chopped garlic clove and a teaspoon of spice mix, pinch of salt and some ground pepper.
I find the water content varies massively, sometimes I have to add a shot of water to stop it drying out before being cooked. Cook longer on a low heat rather than flash it in a hot pan.

I do think cutting carbs is the way to go though. I'm getting my only carbs from pulses and one banana a day at the moment. Very occasional portion of noodles (I live in Hong Kong) or sushi rice but I see that as a treat.
If I can get 3lbs off a week for the next six weeks, I'll be light enough to cycle in this city.
