I'm going to an authentic Mexican place for lunch. Any suggestions for weight loss order?

    Chicken fajitas.

    Fajitas are good, just keep in mind that usually fajita platters are pretty large...I can usually get two solid meals out of one platter.

    If I'm going for a lighter meal, I usually have tacos a-la-carte...usually barbacoa...sometimes chicken.

    Thanks! Chicken fajitas it is, not sure of the portion, but lunch menu should be smaller.

    I ask for corn tortillas - warmed, not fried (they're about 50-60 calories each), and load up on the pico, cilantro, jalapenos, cabbage and lime.

    Shrimp is low in calories and high in protein. I usually go for shrimp tacos without cheese.

    I know you already ate, but....I love carne asada. I mainly have to make sure I don't go over board on the chips though.
