    You can have 2 or 3 lobster tails, veggies, and still have cals for a cheddar bay biscuit...the tails are I believe about 80cals each
    Enjoy!!

    Don't get anything fried! OMG. Got the calamari and fried veggie appetizer . . . it was 900 calories for 1/2. Shrimp tacos were delicious and fairly low cal. I think 150cals per taco. Got a garden salad with red wine vinaigrette. And the biscuits aren't so naughty if you just have one. You can find their nutrition info on the internet. Google them.

    All shellfish like shrimp, lobster and crab are all very healthy. They are extremely low in fat and high in protein. The unhealthy part is the the sauce you dip it into, like melted butter. Watch the dressing you get with your salad. As a matter of fact, you'd be wise to replace your salad with another lobster. Salads are mainly carb calories, but are so low in calorie that it won't do much for you either way in terms of making u fat or providing you with plenty of energy(carbs). Bread is good in moderation. If you eat too much bread(carbs), the extra carbs will be converted to and stored as fat so you should learn your carb threshold. I'm a shellfish fanatic.

    Cheesy biscuits are the devil! I don't eat seafood, and I haven't cared for any of their chicken entrees that I've tried. I've literally gone there and ONLY eaten baskets o' biscuits!

    Don't do that, lol..they are SO bad for you. Maybe they'll have a good salad or you'll like some of the chicken dishes, I'm just a chicken snob!!

    Good luck!

    I have learned to check online. Either here or the nutrition charts from the restaurants website and make my choices before I arrive. It may take some of the spontaneity out of it, but it keeps me happy with my choices.

    I love RL. :) If I went, I'd just enjoy my night. One night won't ruin my entire journey. <3 Workouts do help ease the guilt though :)

    Most big restaurant chains have nutrition information available. I always try to look at it before I go to the restaurant.
    Red Lobster's is: http://www.redlobster.com/health/nutrition/light_house.asp

    When I went, I had a half order of the citrus tilapia - broiled, and broccoli. I did allow myself one of the biscuits.

    I don't want to know the horror stories about those. :laugh:
