    Get some good burn in the day, and go out and enjoy it! One night wont hurt! :D

    I take the approach of finding the healthiest thing AT the takeaway, not aiming for a specific takeaway. If takeaway is happening, I pick a kids meal, or just have a burger rather than a meal, or go for a healthy option if they have them.

    The healthiest take away is to plan ahead& do a good workout so you have more cals to work with relax enjoy. I don't think given freedom you will eat your way through everything so just trust the choices you make& be accountable log everything& hide nothing.i find when i know i have to log it in the morning im more careful with my choices.

    Thanks for your advice guys, I am at the gym this morning so I will work extra hard :)
    I am thinking chicken and boiled rice from the chinese doesn't sound too bad.

    If you want the healthy option, avoid stuff that is fried or in a creamy sauce, if youre having Chinese, chicken and broccoli with boiled rice is good

    If you want to eat whatever you like, do an extra workout the day before / after and earn some extra calories :)

    I'm having takeaway with the girls tonight too. We normally end up with Chinese. I thought I would aim for either a rice/noodle dish and either chicken or beef. Less sauce as possible. I'm not gonna be too hard on myself though, as deserve some rewards every now and then!

    I think also Shish kebabs are not too bad (as just grilled meat) but gotta watch the sauce!

    Yeah I guess a chicken salad kebab would be ok, just without the sauce and pitta bread. Have earned calories at the gym today and am planning of a few hours of just dance on the wii! every little helps! lol
