Saturday.  Family Day.  I wasn’t to hungry for breakfast so I stuck with the simple Fiber One Bar and my Fuze drink.

Breakfast:
Fiber One Breakfast bar: 140 calories
Fuze drink: 20 calories
Total for Breakfast: 160 calories

We went down to the riverfront at 10:30 a.m. and was going to take a boat trip but the water was to high so they couldn’t undock.  So we decided to go to Grant’s Farm which I thought was much more fun.

Late lunch around 1:30 p.m. we (Rachel’s Family) went to O’Charley’s in Fenton, MO.  I have to say, I haven’t been impressed with O’Charley’s for quite some time, but I was today. 

Here is what I had:

Loaded potatoes soup (1/2) serving : 202 calories

Dinner role (Qty:1): 162 calories

Broccoli Cheese casserole: 230 calories
Cedar-Plak Tilapia: 590 calories 

Total for Lunch: 1184 calories

I was very impressed with my lunch experience at O’Charley’s this time around.  The soup was very cheesy and full of flavor.  The Cedar-Plank Tilapia was absolutely amazing.  I’m very picky about fish and the way it is cooked and what it tastes like afterwards.  The cedar-plank was a nice touch and definitely added a smoked flavor to the fish.  This tilapia also had a nice touch of lemon and pepper flavor.  And finally the Broccoli Cheese Casserole was hot when it was served.  Normally when I had the Broccoli Cheese Casserole in the past it was served in a separate small casserole dish and it was always cold.  For O’Charley’s web site…Their website is very well done using some nice flash technology and nutritional information is listed on their web site.  Overall experience: 4 stars!!

For desert after lunch I had my choice of chocolate cake, white cake, or two different types of ice cream for my nieces first birthday party.  I went with a 100 calorie ice cream bar that I had already in my freezer.  It actually felt good to skip store bought cake!!

Ice cream: 100 calories

Dinner:

Dinner was at Quiznos. Ordered some Sammie’s to go. I ordered the Roadhouse Steak [with dressing] (290 calories) and the Bistro Steak Melt [without cheese and dressing] (320 calories) 

FYI….Quiznos Sammie’s are very small pita pocket sandwiches. For the calories and the taste they weren’t too bad.  There are plenty other items I could think of now that I can puchase that would be more filling. 

 

For Quiznos web site it is very well designed.  They have a nutrition section for people watching calories.

 

Total for Quiznos: 610 calories
Baked Cheetos: 140 calories

17 chips – 140 calories

Bean Dip (2 tablespoons – 25 calories) – I believe I probably ate about 200 calories worth.

Total for dinner: 950 calories

Breyers Light Icecream for Dinner: 200 calories
