I had chinese last night....asked for no msg....the waitress had a good grasp of English even though she was Chinese. She said the soup and eggroll had no msg but I was doubtful because I had to ask for no msg in the meal. How could they put "no msg" in an eggroll and a bowl of soup when a bowl of soup was made by the pot and an egg roll was premade ahead of time? I only ate about a third of the eggroll and stayed away from the plum sauce, and only ate the broth from the soup and left half of it. I didn't use any soy sauce or anything either. I had a little of the runs and a tiny bit of a headache, nothing major. I think there was a little msg somewhere along the way or a derivitive of it somewhere. It wasn't severe like it has been though. Maybe the eggroll had it in it. I only had a small bit of it. Only a few bites of it. I have a lingering headache today. I've found in past if I drink a LOT of water I flush my body and I feel better so I'm trying to drink a couple of large glasses of water this morning to kind of flush it out of me. besides, I go to TOPS today to get weighed and I want to get all that salt out of me before tonight! LOL Maybe last night was NOT the night to go eat chinese. LOL I don't feel as bloated though, with no soy sauce or plum sauce, and no msg! Maybe I won't have as much of the day after bloat! I hope!!!! I shouldn't gain too much in water from it, I should still lose. I've been really good all week long. I think sticking to a healthy diet has helped my headache all week too. I've been eating a lot off salads and veggies. I'm getting po'd about all the salad dressings having msg though. Can anyone suggest any good salad dressings?????
