WW and eating chinese food
On the weekends we eat out occasionally and tonight its chinese. I have like 18 points left for the day, so I should be okay, but I'm curious to know for everyone else on WW, what so you generally order that's on the healthier side when you get chinese food?
I ordered chicken and broccoli but its still 11 points

Re: WW and eating chinese food
i dont do WW but whenever i order chinese i end up getting brocolli in garlic sauce and brown rice. you can get it with chicken, beef or shrimp too but i never do. its delish and filling. i dont think it would end up being too many points on WW either.
HTH!

Re: WW and eating chinese food
See, this annoys me. On the "cheat cheat" on WW online it tells you chicken and broccoli from a chinese buffet is 3 points for a 1 cup serving. Then when you look it up in the "explore foods" section it says 11 points for 1 cup from a chinese restaurant. I am getting very confused with this new system

Not on ww, but if I'm looking to be good, I order steamed chicken with vegetables and sauce on the side so I can control the amount. Many places have a diet menu where they don't add salt or sugar to the food.

I usually order steamed chicken with broccoli with the sauce on the side. I'm not sure how many points it is but it has to be better for you since it's steamed!

This is what I do.. I also LOVE steamed vegetable dumplings and I get a small egg drop soup as well. IT ends up being about 10 pts (depending on the size of the dumplings)
