you can do restaurants on south beach! you can start learning to handle it. Itallian minestroni soup might be a good choice. Salad with wonderful healthy olive oil and balsamic vinigar, look over the menu, do they have fish? if its a chain restaurant look up on the internet for nutrition and find out what the bestchoices are. If they have steadk, order the sirloin or lean meat steak and double the veggies, no pasta. We eat out and it gets easier all the time to make better choices. You CAN do it. You've worked hard to lose the weight, its important to your metabolism to keep it off. Let us know how you do! Good luck 

I found this website (hope my link works) http://www.bodybeautifulmagazine.com/t-Diet_Fitness_Bucca_di_Beppo_0208.aspx take a look at their individaul dishes that give the ingredients and calorie counts and things..sounds there is a lot to choose from at the restuarant you are going to!! I do this before I go to a restaruant, I make my choices before I even get there and don't need to be tempted by other menu offer's or specials. Good luck 

hmmm link didn't work, but copy and paste it into your search and it will work. 

The link worked for me when I copied and pasted. My wedding reception was at Bucca Di Beppo, they opened it on Friday afternoon just for us. Love the place! Anyway... Italian is easy as long as you stay away from the pasta. the Chicken Marsala is a good choice! Anyway, take a look at that link, there is PLENTY you can have that will be YUMMY and perfectly leagl. Nice to see you again, I missed ya!
