As far as Olive Garden.... NO PASTA!!! Stick with soups 8 weeks out oh yeah no bread.... Enjoy the night out :)

For me, the bread at Olive Garden would be too hard to resist and I would probably opt for the other place.

However, if you go to Olive Garden, they have an apricot chicken that is wonderful and moist. Comes with broccoli and some kind of starch.

At eight week, I was free to eat whatever. I would choose a fish if you can. Avoid grilled chicken because most places overcook chicken making it too hard to eat. I would also ask if they have a grill veg. For Olive Garden, Chicken Marsala would probably be ok. minus the potatoes asked for grilled/steamed veg or more mushroom. The herb-grilled salmon would be perfect as its just a salmon filet brushed with Italian herbs and extra-virgin olive oil. Served with seasoned broccoli. For the Steakhouse, Buffalo Shrimp (naked - no breading if they can do it) or Any of the Catch of the Day minus the potatoes, or the Oriental Chicken. Remember to ask for a togo box right away or bring your own. Good luck.
