    I usually get the lunch fettucine alfredo but I ask for the sauce on the side and then just poor a little on the noodles. I usually eat one breadstick.

    I hear you can request the salad without the dressing.

    You can also order the salad with either low fat or low calorie dressing - I don't remember which it is - maybe both.

    Check out the nutrition facts on their website. In addition to the listings above, the mussels appetizer is low cal/fat and regionally they sometimes have a low fat seafood option, too.

    You can get soup and salad. I get the Zuppa Toscana it has 170 calories per 8oz...also the minastrone soup is a vegetable soup is low as well. Anything else on that menu is pretty much awful as far as the nutrition goes.

    Aren't you supposed to load up on carbs before a meet? Our coach always had a spaghetti feed at his house the night before big meets....

    I heard they do have grilled talapia but I am not sure. I usually order the soup, salad and breadsticks. I sometimes will eat one breadstick but I try not to eat any. I ask for my salad without the dressing or cheese and get a low fat dressing on the side. I will eat a serving of the zuppa tuscana. I try to eat as much salad as possible so by the time I get my soup, I am not hungry. Good luck. I know how difficult it can be.

    their minestrone soup is what I get! It's vegetarian and low fat. And get their salad without cheese and dressing on the side! I love the Olive Garden and miss it immensely

    Thanks everyone! These are great suggestions. I think I'll go with the venetian chicken and eat some healthy carb later! I just don't want to eat anything my body isn't used to the night before a race-and high fat/sodium would def. cause me some problems.
