Bummer

I know that most people who read this are my Facebook friends.  However, this bears repeating, so I'll share it here...

Applebee's, you broke my heart.  Our family went out for dinner last night.  My 9 year old doesn't eat off the kids menu much anymore, so he and I took advantage of the 2 for $20 deals that Applebee's offers.  They give you about 7 or 8 options that qualify.  I knew automatically that the cheesy pasta was out, but I thought the Oriental Chicken Salad (grilled, mind you) would be a fairly healthy option.  As soon as we got home, I sat down to plug in all my information on my loseit.com account.  That salad came up on the list of foods and I about fell out of my chair.  1240 calories!  1240 calories?  My calorie balance for the day is only around 1700 calories!  I really didn't want to spend 1200 of those calories on one salad!  I guess next time I'll go with the steak!
