So I went out to a resteraunt last night - everything was free (husbands work do) and it was like $50 per person or something so they had some *fantastic* food.
My amazingly wonderful husband sent me the menu the day before we went so I knew what to expect and what I could order and how I was gonna budget my
calories.
It was italian! do you know how little italian food is good for you ?! Lets see ... everything had tons of oversweet tomato sauce, lots of mince, cheese, pasta etc.
I was relegated to a MASSIVE salad with chicken bits in it. I told them to hold the oil dressing. Now thats one expensive fricken salad for $50!
Since i knew that was what i was gonna order i had a few
calories up my sleeve for entrees which was some kind of smorgasboard plate thing with cheeses, breads, olives, weird bacon things, bits of veges. I ate brie cheese on garlic bread - it was AMAZING!, then to finish off dinner i had a brandy snap! with cream!
I tell you it was worth that massive chicken salad (which i didnt end up finishing because it was sooooo big).
Anyway Total
calories for the day was about 1450-1500 which is my upper limit, but perfectly within my range
.
