Any diet works when it creates a calorie deficit you can sustain. The point isn't banning rice and dates — it's knowing your portions. Here are the steps in order.
Step 1: know your calories
Calculate your daily needs with the calculator and subtract 300-500 kcal. That's your daily diet target.
Kabsa and rice on a diet
No need to quit. Keep rice around one cooked cup, increase lean chicken or meat and salad, and trim visible fat.

- 3 dates instead of desserts
- Low-fat laban instead of sweet drinks
