Well, some of the Japanese women I know don't eat much rice at all in order to stay thin - they eat salad or fish instead. So it could be helpful. I would assume it's just the same as cutting out bread and other carb-heavy foods. Cutting out soda is definitely a big help - reducing sugar in general is a good way to go. Overall, just as long as you take in fewer calories than you're burning off every day, you'll lose weight.
