Diet, Day 55

Well, I went to bed this morning without writing my blog entry, and it took me forever tonight to recall what I ate last night/yesterday. then I remembered- I went to dinner with friends from the MINI club! We went to a place called The Tilted Kilt. The MINI club had met there before, but I wasn't at that gathering. It's basically a somewhat cheesy twist on Hooters, by adding a faux "Scottish" theme. (Mainly waitresses in plaid mini skirts & push-up bras)

This was the first time I had gone out to eat since Day 1 of my diet, and I was feeling pretty limited in my choices. Chicken wings are close to being OK, but they're deep fried, so that was questionable. Plus, it'd be VERY hard to estimate the weight of the chicken I actually consumed. So I went a little safer & had a Caesar Salad, hold the croutons.

The dressing may not have been ideal, as I forgot to ask about low-cal options, but it was basically a large bowl of lettuce with an anemic piece of chicken on top. Tasted good, but it was small, that's all. That was probably the only small breast in the place. (That's a waitress joke, just in case anyone missed it) Anyhow, I know lettuce is a "freebie," but I'm counting it as 2 vegetable servings, because there was a LOT of it.
