If you want to lose weight I would advise avoiding rice cakes, it doesn't matter whether they are low fat or not because they have a high GI. You need to try to avoid processed carbs if you can and find something with more fibre in. I don't know if there is a biscuit type food that would work.

I like the ds crispbreads, crumbles do nice cracker biscuits but are a bit too moreish, and if you can have oats then nairns gf oatcakes are good

Nains also do a G/F cheese oatcake but they are a bit moreish. it is hard to substitute bread and to loose weight I know,good luck and if you find the answer let me know first.x

Hi Hollyberry,

There isn't a direct GF replacement for Ryvita. However some of the GF crispbreads are rather good, if a little on the expensive side.

Personally I found Barkat Matzo crackers and DS herb crackers to be a little more filling. I also have to admit that I enjoy eating rice cakes.

I opened a box of Orgran peppercorn deli crackers for the first time the other day. They were soo good I had to check the box again to see if they were actually gluten-free! They went down deliciously with pâté and dairy free cheese. Again not cheap but worth it in my opinion for the taste.

I am not sure how good any of these would be when trying to lose weight. Best of luck with your aim, I hope you find a solution that enables you to succeed.

Hi Hollyberry, I don't know about you, but I think rice cakes are the pits! I have been eating corn thins which have a much nicer flavour. They do have fibre in them too.

If you can get prescription food' then try Glutafin mini crackers and high fibre ones. I take these to work to have mid-morning with cheese, and find the are enough til I get home at 1.30pm and have a light lunch. My problem is that I can't put weight on so have to eat a bit extra. (no. thinner is not always good) all the best
