My family just ordered chinese food… at first I freaked out a bit, but now I have it planned out. As of right now I have used 16.5 points. According to my research I can have 1 cup of chow mein for 6 points, 1 cup of stir fry veggies for 3 points, and 0.5 cup of steamed rice for 2 points. That will put me at 27.5 points for the day. It is over my daily allowance, but I am not sure how else to work it in order to not feel left out of the meal. As it is I will not be eating any of the chicken balls, deep fried prawns or egg rolls… all big temptations for me. My daily goal is 23 points, I will use the 4.5 points over towards my flex points… leaving me with 0 flex points until Monday. That means I have to be on my best behavior… I can do it, just need to be strong!!

CHINESE FOOD IS AMAZING.. I cheat for it to every now and then
What good is life if we dont have our chinese food!!
But dont weigh yourself for a week as the MSG and Sodium Levels cause you to retain water and does scary things to the scale. But Sounds like your really doing well keeping track and are very motivated!
We have similar goals!
So ill be sure to check in on your blog to see how things are going for you!
Good Luck and have a good week!
