    In case anyone wants to know, I got the ahi tartare and the asian lettuce wrap tacos with chocolate moose cheesecake for dessert. Only had a few bites of cheesecake and took the rest home. The ahi tartare was SO GOOD. And apparently only 250 calories. The asian tacos were good but very messy, and not as good as the tuna.

    Anything you want. Plan the meal the day before into your app and make the rest of your calories revolve around that meal.

    Quite sure that for 99% of the people here, it would be technically impossible to plan a day around a Cheesecake Factory meal while having 'anything you want' there, considering that a lot of entrees are probably more than most people's goals alone...

    While that's true... I lost quite a bit of weight while eating at one a couple times a week. Just don't get anything with bread, salad dressing, or a grain based carby item, and you can actually manage their stuff pretty easily.

    Granted, best course of action is just to order cheesecake and say screw it.

    Water.
    I've heard water is a solvent. Better dilute it some with whisky.

    Solvents are good for weight loss.

    Sounds delicious!!

    I miss their Vietnamese tacos.

    Order whatever you want and when your food comes, immediately divide all of it in half. Eat one half and take the other half home.

    We tried to go to one the other day. It's in the mall, so would've been convenient if the wait hadn't been 80 minutes. They do have healthier options, but the real draw was it being in the mall.

    We gave up our awesome parking spot and went elsewhere, thinking we would save time. In a major shopping area...In a tourist destination...At Christmas. Next year, I'm shopping earlier.

    Who'd have thought that the mall restaurants in tourist areas would be crowded the week before Christmas? ;)

    what to get at the Cheesecake Factory? nothing. portions are too big. BUT...if you have to...the skinnylicious menu looked pretty good online. I'm not a cheesecake fan so it would not be hard for me to not eat the cheesecake there.
