    I always choose boiled rice with chicken sweet sour. Sometimes, with vegetable spring-roll as side dish.

    Choose what you like depending on your calories intake. What i do, i eat light meal for breakfast, so i save my calories for the lunch.

    If you know which restaurant you are going to, find out if they have a website and see if they have posted their menu. This way when you get there you will already have your choices made. Hope this helps.

    Tofu dishes (unless they're massively fried) should be safe, or fish. Be careful of MSG-laden soups, though! Enjoy your evening out! xx

    Chinese is luscious but fattening in the uk, Chinese people aren't fat but they don't prepare the food for a Chinese market lol! I think have what u like, flush out with loads of water the following day coz you'll be salted up... And get back to it the next day... Enjoy x

    The best dish u can have is boiled rice with chicken and mushroom, or chicken chop suey. Sweet n sour is a no no as the batter is well fattening unless u get it with no batter but still masively high in sugar. Hope that helps

    Hi!

    Eating out is always tough, but I would suggest that you don't have any rice, what's the point in boiled rice (dull!) when you could have more awesome protiens and veg. Probably best to steer away from the springrolls and such. Soups are good too. Chicken or tofu with veg in some kind of awesome sauce is good.

    Oh man, I want chinese now.
