i've spent some time looking up the calorie values of some of my favorite restaurant meals, and let me just say WHOA! i thought it would be fun to see some other examples. what is your favorite thing to eat when dining out, and how many calories is it according to MFP? also, if you have a healthier alternative meal choice, you can share that as well.

my very favorite meal to eat at olive garden is fettucine alfredo (aka "heart attack on a plate"). the dinner portion is a whopping 1,220 calories--just 20 shy of my entire daily goal! :noway: the lunch portion is 800 calories. this is the pasta alone, not counting their free breadsticks (140 calories each) or salad (290 calories per serving). a slightly better alternative is the lunch portion of their chicken parmagiana at 570 calories.

    Mine is 6 traditional wings at Buffalo Wild Wings with desert heat rub. 690 calories, and that is not including blue cheese.

    I still manage to fit it in once a week or so.... at least it is low carb!
