My fiance and I are going to TGI Fridays tomorrow night for dinner. I am looking over the online menu and cannot find anything that will not put me over my calories, even if I do exercise, unless I burn 1000 calories and do not eat all day. Please help me!!!!

Put half of your dinner in a to go box. Order from the kids' menu (if they have it).0

They must have gotten rid of their right portion section. I have a dairy allergy so by default that lowers my calories since I can't have cheese, butter, etc. Maybe tell them that and you'll get a meal under 600 cals :-)0

You can order what ever you want.. Just ask for it
Side of grill chicken
veggies
rice
salad
side of steak
Sauce on side
as for no extra oil or butter
ect...
If they have it in the the restaurant they can give it to you
MAKE YOUR OWN MEAL0 -
If you get a sandwhich or a salad get the mayo or the dressing on the side. Also what someone mentioned before tell the waitress you can't have butter or cheese on anything and that will take a lot of calories out of the mix and also what someone said earlier take some home for another meal.0

Eat only 1/2 of whatever you order and ask for a box to take the rest home. (I know some people who ask the server to bring a box right away, and put 1/2 in the box so it's off their plate and they don't accidentally/unconsciously eat the whole thing).
Also, avoid deep fried stuff. A bit is okay, but it's really easy to go overboard on calories. And skip dessert.0 -

there's the link to the calories for you!0 -
I usually get the firecracker salmon (I think that is the name of it) plain with lemon, no rice extra veggie0
-
Applebee's has some great choices for under 550 calories...just sayin'0
-
It depends on what sorts of foods you like, and what amount of calories you are looking to have, but you can do a petite steak with veggies for about 500 calories, minus whatever condiments you use, and if you want to splurge on mashed potatoes or fries, then put half the meal aside.0

Yeah what others have said. Don't eat the entire portion in one sitting. That's a big reason most Americans are fat. Portion sizes in restaurants are like three times what they should be.0

Split a meal with your FI! That is what my hubby and I do most of the time. Order a steak(or chicken or fish) with veggies and a plain baked potato, then half everything. Maybe add a side salad, either one to split, or one each. Drink lots of water. That should help!! Good luck!! And I'm so jealous! I love TGIFridays! And we don't have any in my area. Probably a good thing, since I'm in LOVE with the friend green beans! Oh yum....0

has anyone ever had the dragonfire salmon? is it good?0
-
I love Fridays! I get the steak and broccoli. That's it
Sign up for the Friday's club and get coupons via email that you don't have to print. Usually buy one entree get one half off.
The steak I believe is 7oz. I ask for it not to be marinated and no extra salt or sauces.
If you like steak.0 -

I want to try the fried green beans so bad.... this will be our first time to TGIF's0 -
Their dragonfire chicken, jack daniel's shrimp and chicken and spinach florentine flatbread are the only things that are under 700 calories. In that, dragonfire chicken is loaded with sugar.
As everyone else suggests, eat only a half of your entree.0 -
I hope he decides to split a meal with you!!0
