Not sure if this question goes here but, What do you eat if you go to a chinese resturant? I used to go for lunch with a good customer of mine, and i would like to be able to do it again, the one we go to has a nice sized buffet.

Hi Dave,

I'm sure some folk will come up with some other good suggestions for you, but before I eat out anywhere new, I usually check the Atkins website. Here is their advice on eating in Chinese restaurants: http://atkins.com/Archive/2001/12/17-614000.html

Well we have a fabulous buffet, near us and my whole family loves it so we go when it's a birthday ect, I eat the chicken/ veggie dishes, I stay away from the rice, noodles,ect, but it is almost impossible to not have the sugar filled sauces at any buffet, even the Won Ton soup has sugar in it! Every single time I have been I'm up 2-3 pounds the next day, and have to cut way back of carbs and increase teh water, big time. The last time was my birthday, ( in Maintenance) but I thoiught it's just not worth it, next time the guys can go with out me.
So if this person is a good "what ever" then I'm sure he'd/she'd understand you need to choose a different place. It's for your health, thats important! 8>) I mean you've just started, don't do it to yourself. Beleive me it will be worth it 8>)
