They're not exactly dumplings, BUT I think you'd like the Chicken Shu Mai from Trader Joe's. They're low cal and delicious.

Enjoy them *once in a while* ;-)

Moderation, moderation. moderation... If you love dumplings go for the steamed ones instead of the fried ones. If you like soup split a serving and eat a small bowl. It's okay to splurge every once in awhile just be accountable for your actions and eat nutritiously on the other meals.

I also love hot and sour soup... I love a good splurge meal when I've worked out and burned tons of calories... maybe try having it only on those days as a treat!

Also, I second the dumplings from TJ's. They are amazing!
