Okay, almost every weekend we go out to eat here in our small town. The choices are limited to Chinese, Fish / Steak House, or Mexican. I truly dislike fish so with that out of the way what are some good choices especially from the Chinese and Mexican places??

Chinese - order chicken and broccoli without the sauce, add soy if you like.
Mexican - fajitas - ask them to hold the tortilla. All the fixin's are OK - salsa, guacamole, peppers, onions. I would avoid the sour cream and the cheese because they are probably not low fat. Once you are in P2 you can have refried beans and the tortilla.
Hope this helps!

I'm doing Ph II/Ph III, so I go a little crazy once in a while. Chinese - I eat the stuff inside the egg roll, but leave the wrap. I'll eat the fried shrimp, but I'll pull off the breading. Same for chicken fingers. Even a couple of bites of some egg foo yong (chicken or veggie) isn't horrible; it's kind of an omelet. Just don't eat the brown sauce that usually is served with it. Mexican - I ordered a burrito a week ago and just ate the insides - it was a shredded beef seasoned differently from fajitas and that difference is what I wanted to taste. Luckily, it was also quite lean.
Good Luck!
i've found that i have to be careful where i order a salad. at some places, it's just plain old iceberg lettuce, canned olives and some cut up tomatoes. blech. so i try to be creative.
