So, you want to eat Mexican and still lose weight?

Co-Owner -  3 Amigos Virginia Beach, Jose Perez & his lovely wife Virginia
 

Asombroso! At 3 Amigos (Virginia Beach) you can and you’ll love it! Co owner Jose Perez and his wife Virginia have charted a course for healthy living while eating from Jose’s native Guadalajara cuisine. Since joining BodyTek to get in shape for the summer they’ve taken a creative approach to their eating (and cooking) which is awesome for us. The word on the street is that this family owned 3 Amigos has held down the best Mexican cuisine in our area for over 8 years. So the BT team decided to give Jose and his chef Veta a challenge by requesting a “Clean” version of the grilled chicken fajita’s without sacrificing taste. WOW! Let me tell you; Veta must wave some kind of magic Mexican wand over the grill because not only was our meal amazingly tasty but it didn’t increase my weight by even a pound! This means super low sodium, fat, and carb calories with a taste that’s true Guadalajara. Court adjourned; 3 Amigos can deliver a perfectly healthy version of the fajita without any overweight worries. I’m a believer and 3 Amigo’s has permanently resurrected my love for Mexican. Come in and request the delicious BT Fajita’s sautéed in lime when you’re dieting, plus enjoy loads of other zesty dishes including seafood dinners, steak, sandwiches, soups, and even vegetarian platters! You can get creative and “Make your own combo” too. The professional wait staff and servers from Mexico give this 3 Amigos restaurante the perfect touch; making it absolutely the best authentic Mexican cuisine this side of boarder. The bar is stocked with all your favorite selections (including Patron Tequila) so bring friends and join Jose, Virginia, Veta, and Emilio for a fun family fiesta!

Hey BodyTekers,
BodyTek has discovered a hidden Treasure. Silver to be exact! Yes, buried within the wreckage of restaurants that we just can’t eat from is the newly opened SILVER DINER of Chesapeake. We popped in for some Pot Pie a couple of weeks ago, and the menu blew us away. I got to tell you that I never expected to find low calorie meals at any DINER! These guys really no what’s up. After sampling a few different entrees from the kitchen we were hooked. I don’t know that Chris (Store Manager) wants us to move in but he sure treats us like family. I recommend that All Tekers take advantage of this jewel when you’re out and about. We’ve put together a list of good pics for our clients to choose from when you get there. Make sure to say hey to Chris for us!

The TekTeam

  • Veggie Omelet with oatmeal or 1 biscuit (Use 3 egg whites dry and hold the fries)
  • Chicken Pot Pie (Don’t eat the bread top or bottom and add a side salad with vinegar and oil) The chicken and veggie filling is very good!
  • All Salads with vinegar and oil (Cobb with no bacon or cheese is our favorite)
  • Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken (Eat ½ of the rice serving.)
  • Veggie Chili (one cup with no extras) the sodium may cause some water retention but nothing to worry about)
