in Food and Nutrition
Hello to everyone, I am not new to this site, I just don't post, but I do love MFP, it's very helpful and has really helped me to watch what I'm eating and portion control. I'd like to lose 50 lbs, just cuz I want the freedom from fat!!
Okay, so I don't know if any of you ever used this site, www.thedailyplate.com, but it lists just about every restaurant and what they offer along with nutrition labels for all the meals. Check it out, it's very useful when you've gone out to dinner and have to account for what you've eaten, it will also give you options for healther choices at the same restaurant. Let me know what you think!
Good luck to everyone here with their weight loss, and I"ll try to start posting, some of you people crack me up, you're hilarious!! :laugh:

    I went to the site you mentioned, but didn't see where all the restaurants were listed. To me it looked alot like this site. And since THIS is the best site on the web, I just came right on back here!

    In the SEARCH field, you type in the restaurant and their selections come up, I love this site too, and use this one exclusively, but when I do go out to dinner, the Daily Plate give me the info I need to post here.

    Oh, I see how to get there!!

    From the home site, click on the tab labeled "MyPlate Calorie Counter". After you click there, a search bar appears on the top of the page where you can type in the restaurant and food. For example, I typed in "Chili's Nachos" (because they are so good and SO unhealthy), and a couple results to choose from came up. (1500 calories, btw. Blech!)

    THANKS!!! :flowerforyou:
