]]> 70038 1 25 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/180496/25.jpg Use chopsticks Use chopsticks if you normally eat with a fork and knife. It may take you longer to eat, giving your brain time to tell your tummy you’re full before you clean your plate.

]]> 70039 2 35 Tip Put less sauce on your plate by using a fork or a chopstick to transfer food from a platter instead of the serving spoon.

]]> 70040 3 42 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/180496/42.jpg Order the shrimp Consider a shrimp dish: They’re usually the best bet because the dish is apt to be mostly vegetables. Just make sure the shrimp isn’t breaded and deep-fried. Steamed chicken or whole fish is also a smart choice.

]]> 70041 4 55 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/180496/55.jpg Get sauce on the side When ordering anything with sauce, ask for it on the side.

]]> 70042 5 59 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/180496/59.jpg Eschew the &quot;combo&quot; dishes Avoid dishes with the word “combo” or “house” in the name, which are usually more caloric than a plate with one main ingredient in the title.

]]> 70043 6 69 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/180496/69.jpg Avoid lemons and oranges Avoid entrees with “lemon” and “orange” in the names, like lemon chicken and orange beef. They may sound healthy, but the meat is usually breaded and deep-fried. The same goes for “sweet and sour” dishes.

]]> 70044 7 81 Tip Avoid General Tso’s chicken and kung pao chicken; both are loaded with fat and calories. And chow fun is anything but when it comes to your waistline!

]]> 70045 8 91 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/180496/91.jpg Assume nothing Don’t assume the vegetarian plates are low-cal: Eggplant with garlic sauce and deep-fried tofu are loaded with fat and calories. To ensure a healthy vegetable entree, make sure it’s steamed.

]]> 70046 9 103 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/180496/103.jpg Fill up on the rice Dine like the Chinese, who eat one portion of the entree to three portions of steamed – not fried – rice. Take the leftovers home or order fewer dishes than the number of people you’re dining with.

]]> 70047 10 116 Tip While brown rice has the same number of calories as white rice, it offers four times the fiber.

]]> 70048 11 121 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/180496/121.jpg Steer clear of noodles Save your pasta fix for Italian night, when you can cover it in nutritious tomato sauce. Chinese restaurant dishes made with noodles, like lo mein, generally offer little but empty calories.

]]> 70049 12 133 Fact An order of spare ribs has as many calories as two large servings of pork chops.
