    I only get Chinese food when I don't care about my calories. Sometimes when I'm super tired and lazy I'll order chicken and steamed vegetables, no rice...then I'll throw it in a salad at home.

    Mmmm...wonton soup...but that's before I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder and stopped eating wheat and soy sauce.

    So now I have steamed vegetables, steamed rice and grilled chicken (no soy sauce - and some places have tamari instead). There are lots of spices that can be used instead of soy sauce. Still delicious. Turns out it's lower calories, too, so I don't even worry about that. I just enjoy!

    I make most of my food at home, though, so it's super easy to control what goes into my body and I don't end up sick for a week if someone screws up and puts the wrong thing on my plate. (Doesn't happen often, but not fun when it does.) ;)

    Chicken Lo Mein (no veggies), Pepper Steak, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Sesame Chicken, Beef and Broccoli, spring rolls, crab ragoons. If I eat Chinese, it's definitely going to be my one and only meal of the day and I don't worry about the calories too much.
