Know anything good and nutricious?
I looked this up for you when I noticed what your typical meal is. Make these adjustments and you'll be doing a bit better:



"Beyond the contrary belief, Chinese food can be very healthy eating if you know how to order. Of course, just like many other types of food preparations, Chinese food is prepared with many types of oils. Some favorite Chinese dishes are battered and fried. Fried rice, egg rolls and Szechwan dishes with peanuts and almonds are extremely high in fat. The Chinese use steamed white rice and many vegetables in their dishes, so take advantage of these items. Here is an example of a popular meal versus what you should try next time:

Typical Meal

Egg drop soup
Egg roll
Fried rice
Kung Pao chicken

Better Choice

Skip the soup--too high in sodium
Steamed vegetable dumplings
Steamed rice
Steamed Shrimp or chicken with ginger sauce on the side
Steamed vegetables"


(I made that red because it seemed appropriate for chinese food)
