    I have ordered chalupa's lately and not eating all the shell. I skip the sour cream and go easy on the cheese. I skip the rice, go easy on the beans- And go REAL easy on the chips.

    What is the calorie count in a chalupa without the shell
  • Fajitas are generally ok, load up with the veggies- try and hold back on the higher calorie things and limit them (tortilla shell, sour cream, excess cheese). I LOOOOOVE Mexican food
  • if it wouldnt be a socially akward thing to do, i usually orer off the kids menu because it is portion sized. you get a portion of beans compared to adults plate you may get 2 or 3.
  • Get whatever you want just dont eat it all in one sitting. Eat half then save the rest for tomorrow. Try to ask for no cheese if you can handle Mexican food with no cheese lol
  • Chicken Al Carbon!! no cheese, no sour cream. If you go for a combo plate, ask for black beans instead of refried. Hit the gym before to make room for error!

    That's a greast idea, I generally order an appetizer. This way I have something to eat, but not that much of it....
