Just wanted to pass on some info I learned the other night eating out at Red Robin.

The kids were dying to go there the other night and prior to going I looked on line for low carb options and I found out that you can get any of thier burgers or sandwiches on a lettuce bun and side salad instead of fries, I ordered the California chicken sand and was surprised at how good this was, it was served between to thick, crispy pieces of iceberg lettuce and wrapped in paper which made it easy to eat, I ate about 1/3rd and took the rest home and the next day my wife and I split the rest for lunch and it was just as good the next day.

My husband he always lets me substitute his fries for a cup of Soup. Its always just the right amount of food for me. If I need the calories I get the clam chowder but I normally get the chicken tortilla type.

If I am hungry (rarely) I get the blta and eat some of the croissant and then take the rest off and eat the inside, turkey, bacon, lettuce Tomato and avocado, makes a good meal the next couple days too.

We go to RR about 3x z month. Hubby always orders the same thing: a Royal Red Robin (burger with an egg and bacon), lettuc wrapped with a side salad. Also an fyi: tneir side salad is also bottomless. U can eat as much as u want, just like their fries. Hubby is a carb watcher and always orders his burgers "Protein style"

Carls Jr and In and Out also do a fabulous "protein style" buger/sandwich. Places like Burger King put the burger and veggies in a bowl and give u a fork. Not a true burger, in my opinion.

Personally I'm not a fan of lettuce wrapped burgers. A burger isn't a burger without the bun. But I know a lot of people like having the option.

Btw, I always get the Avo Cobbo salad at RR. Usually I end up tossing the leftovers after my 4th meal of it cuz I'm sick of it. I always get the dressing on the side so my leftovers aren't so soggy

RR is probably my favorite fast food. I usually get chicken tender salad with honey mustard

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
