Something truly incredible has happened. My gran wanted a chinese tonight so I ordered her chow mein and sweet and sour King prawn balls...Do you know what I decided and really enjoyed? 2 table spoons of boiled rice and 1/2 a container of stir fried vegetables with cashew nuts. I then proceeded to pour washing up liquid on the left overs and binned it.

Normally I would have gone for fried rice, chicken in ginger and spring onion, deep fried crispy beef and 8 mini spring rolls. I would have demolished the lot and the rest of every one else's. But I had no problems today, it was amazing!

Just thought I'd share this miraculous moment, as it is a very big step for me now I've actively looked for healthier options. It came to a grand total of 350 calories odd and i'm still within my fat, carb, salt and protein limits

Well done you xXx
Keep it up

Awesome job! I don't know if I would have done nearly as well as you. Chinese has always been a major weakness for me. Way to go!

Wow well done you! chinese is majorly my weakness! Lets hope next time my fella decides he's ordering in I'll be able to show the same restraint

Well done

Well done!
Glad to see another SlimmingWorld-er aswell! I'm new to it, but I think it's brilliant! (As long as I lose weight with it. :P)

I have had Chinese twice since starting my diet. I haven't been as controlled as you I am afraid - but I did manage to stick to a small portion - and boiled rice rather than fried and no batter on the chicken!

Must try the veggies and cashew. What sauce did you go for? I always struggle to know which one would be low fat

THATS awesome! One thing I noticed when I was in Blackpool was your local chinese places have better mushroom chicken than ours and their king prawn stir fry are THE BOMB!

brill stuff! & i bet you feel a billion times better today than you would of!
