      I ate a pulled pork sandwich and fries from Montana's and it turned out to be 1800 calories!!! I was floored when I found out and am never going there again. I figured it would be high and I would have to have a small dinner but I had no idea it would take up my entire food for the day.

      I'm surprised that people are shocked that there's a ton of calories in some of these foods.

      You can still eat them you just need to budget accordingly

      Wow now. I certainly never said I wouldn't still eat the pizza!! Lol I LOVE pizza. And was not AT ALL surprised it has so many calories. But I certainly find a way to fit it in every so often!

      Most granola.
      Even the "healthy" ones are loaded with HFCS (spare me as to whether you think it's evil or not). On a particularly hangry morning I bought some at the LatteLand near my office. I had already heard it was a calorie bomb, but I didn't realize the severity until I'd already eaten my fill (about 1/4 of the portion sold to me). I had about a half cup and it was over 500 calories. Bottom line, if your granola tastes good, it's got the calories packed in.

      LOL...I was going to say the same thing. I haven't read every single post, but most of what I have read is pretty much no-brainer...

      Had the Whiskey BBQ salad from Red Robin, thinking I was doing the better thing, and it had over 900 calories in it! Craziness

      Granola, PB, avocados, almonds.
      And pretty much any food that tastes really good.

      Pretty much anything at chili's.... Don't even look at the desserts...
      Also as already been said the cheesecake factory everything is ridiculous!
      Same for Ted's montana grill, it is wrong on SO many levels that a salad can have 1100 calories +

      The "lite" sirloin with broccoli is under 400 calories! That's my go-to meal there.

      I eat 5 Guys for lunch multiple times a week
      I don't eat it that much but i had some last weekend. If you just have a little burger or a burger without the bun and a handful of fries it's ok. Not low cal, but you can certainly fit it into your week.

      Shakes are always terrible.

      I go for the bacon burger, no bun, load up on veggies. I skip the fries. Fits my macros. As for calories, I don't count them all that much, but it keeps me full for a long time, so I'm cool with it.
