Panda Express Breakdown

With all this talk about Chinese food having a bad rep, I thought it would be appropriate to break down so called gourmet Chinese food, Panda Express.

 

You should probably opt for these options:

Mixed Veggies:  90 Calories, 7g Fat, 0g Trans Fat, 110mg Sodium, 8g Carbs
Mushroom Chicken:  130 Calories, 6g Fat, 0g Trans Fat, 520mg Sodium, 8g Carbs

*The numbers above are all done without rice.

 

Want to know what you definitely shouldn't order (including sides) then,

You should steer clear of these options:

Orange Chicken:  500 Calories, 27g Fat, 1g Trans Fat, 810mg Sodium, 42g Carbs
BBQ Pork:  440 Calories, 23g Fat, 0g Trans Fat, 1570mg Sodium, 15g Carbs

*The numbers above are all done without rice.

 

Sides are not always your friend:

Steamed Rice (8oz.):  380 Calories, 2.5g Fat, 0g Trans Fat, 30mg Sodium, 81g Carbs
Fried Rice (8oz.):  450 Calories, 14g Fat, 3g Trans Fat, 710mg Sodium, 67g Carbs

An extensive questionnaire generated responses from more than 200 U.S. Herbalife Independent Distributors about their weight-loss programs and results. They reported weight loss ranging from 4 pounds to 167 pounds and a reduced body mass index (BMI) of 1.5 points to 24.1 points, suggesting that consumption of Herbalife® products is associated with weight loss and improvement in BMI in those ranges.
