Eating out is the worst! I never realized that until I joined this site and started counting calories! I got a chicken pot pie at Perkins many times, it's about 1200 calories - ONE meal! Then I'd get a big dessert after that yet! Now I try to stick with the "fit" options, but I hate salads so that doesn't leave too many choices.
(my daughter was 196 at the beginning of June she is now 174. You can DO this!)
