I guess oatmeal could also be added. So far I've been doing sweet potato and brown rice throughout the day in 1/2 cup servings, 70-80g on low carb days, 150g on high carb. I'm just wondering, which carb is more effective for cutting? Or should I be consuming both, just at different times?
I cut out dairy and bread from a pretty clean diet to begin with. I'm cutting out rice cakes this week. Leaves me with brown rice, sweet potatoes and oatmeal.
Any help is appreciated, I'm 6 weeks out, about 4 pounds to go (maybe)

You don't need to cut out any of it. As long as you're following your daily macros, it's not going to make a bit of a difference. The only thing you need to be careful with is eating too much fruit because of the natural sugar...but again, you don't need to cut it out completely.
