Im going to Frankie and Bennys with my girlfriends on saturday and I really don't know what is the best choice to have!! I don't particularly want them to know I'm dieting as they are my friends from school and they know about my past issues with bulimia but blergh..

  • I would suggest...have a high protein snack before you go..like some nuts or chicken. While at the thinggie..use small plate, have a protein and vegies..If they ask anything...Just say I am eating healthier. If they are your true friends they won't judge and will be supportive. You will do fine sweetie.

    Check out their website. They have their menus on line and one of them is a Lighter Choices one that is calorie counted. Have a look at that will give you an idea what to go for :flowerforyou:

    Just had a look at this and it's a real help, there's also some options in the food database. I try to fit in a quick workout if I'm going out for a meal or drinks :smile:
  • Ah sounds good :) Ill have a lighter option!! Most defnately.

    After looking at their menu online, I think your best bet is to order off the "lighter choices" menu. Or, order the New York steak, and only eat a portion of it and ask for veggies or a salad instead of potatoes. Have a good time with your friends and try not to obsess about your food. :drinker:
