The whole family is going out for Chinese food! I'm obviously going with them (my brother and sister in law are here from CT) I of course am extremely nervous about going, although I plan to be very mindful of what I'm eating. I'be already mapped out my whole day prior to dinner, so feel free to check out my diary.

My question is, what "healthy" options do you get when ordering Chinese?? I would love to try something new! Ive included a link to their website as well.

    Not sure about what to order - but drink tons of water.

    I'm drinking a lot today, but will be having one beer when I go. I refuse to deprive myself of a good time with family, but would like to see what healthy options are out there

    You're going to want to go for the steamed veggies! Stay away from all of the oily meats and the sugary sauces - sweet and sour, honey chicken, etc.

    Steamed rice is also a good option! If you can find lean beef or chicken that's good too :)

    Enjoy!!

    While these are good options, I cant just have veggies and rice.. :( I do want some kind of chicken
