I usually eat like four slices of ciabatta a day. But after I posted that comment I realized that I would also be quite put out if I had to restrict my sugar intake. (My mental organization system doesn’t lump sugar and starch into a reference class or I’d have said that in that comment.) I also really like rice at Indian restaurants, and I’m not sure how I’d go about enjoying curry without either that or naan...
That isn’t in your food log. The fact that you really like a food doesn’t mean you can rule it out as a poison.

You’d go into withdrawal, but the withdrawal symptoms and cravings would go away within two weeks. The body uses sugar first for energy, then fat; if you’re eating lots of sugar, it needs to transition to metabolizing fat (ketosis), and it’s short on energy in the interim, which is a little unpleasant. But it’s better on the other side.
Also, rice is fairly benign. In my mind, the only issue with white rice is that it crowds out more useful sources of calories, and just provides empty carbohydrates.

Yes it is. “Toast”. Or “eggs on toast”, “sandwich”, etc.
