    Olive Garden - Fettuccine Alfredo
1,220 calories, 75g fat, 1,350mg sodium, 99g carbs
Mind you, this is the PLAIN Fettuccine Alfredo -- no chicken or shrimp on top. All carbs and fat, with no real nutritional value to speak of. That's a noodle-tastrophe if we've ever seen one!
Instead... If you need pasta, stick to their Linguine alla Marinara (430 calories and 6g fat). Or stay home and make our Fettuccine Hungry Girlfredo. You'll be satisfied and SOOOO much better off.
Red Lobster - Admiral's Feast
1,506 calories, 93.4g fat, 4,662mg sodium, 101g carbs
People, meet ginormous plate of deep-fried seafood. Ginormous plate of deep-fried seafood, meet people. Okay, now that you've been introduced, we hope you never see each other again.
Instead... Get something off the LightHouse or Wood-Fire Grill menu, or get some fresh fish grilled or broiled. Much lighter. A full portion of grilled sole with broccoli has 245 calories and 3.5g fat, and the Garlic Grilled Jumbo Shrimp has 365 calories and 6g fat.
Macaroni Grill - Parmesan-Crusted Sole
2,190 calories, 141g fat, 145g carbs, 2,980mg sodium, 9g fiber, 82g protein
At first glance, this looks like it would be a smart choice but, AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH, it's actually ridiculously over-caloried and scary. 141 grams of fat?! 2,190 calories??? 2,980mg sodium?!?! This may be the most offensive fish dish in the history of the world. Not kidding.
Instead... Go somewhere else. Seriously. Or make some of Hungry Girl's De-Lish Fish 'n Chips in the safety of your own home. Mmmmmm!
Applebee's - Crispy Orange Chicken Bowl
1,910 calories
How sad is it that this bowl of poultry has more calories than the Applebee's Brewtus Steak Burger (with bacon and cheese) and a side of fries? Um, VERY. Any veggies are lost under deep-fried chicken in a sugary glaze, crispy noodles, and rice. Eeeks.
Instead... Get a half-size order (it's STILL big!) of the Oriental Grilled Chicken Salad for 350 calories. And if you want the Oriental Vinaigrette dressing, get it on the side, then DIP (don't pour), and use it sparingly -- a half-size portion of that dressing still has 290 calories. On second thought, you may want to bring your own dressing.

Attack of the 1,210-Calorie Veggie Omelette! 
At IHOP, you might think ordering the spinach and mushroom omelette is a good idea -- but this egg disaster has a shocking 1,210 calories (eeeks!). Instead, try HG's Ginormous Oven-Baked Omelette -- you can have a giant piece of our protein-packed omelette for just 140 calories and 3g fat! An added bonus? You can make it the night before and then simply heat 'n' eat in the AM!
79-Grams-of-Fat French Toast!
Even if you're DYING for French toast, avoid Denny's Fabulous French Toast Platter at all costs. This freaky breakfast plate will cost you 1,261 calories and 79g fat! Instead of feasting on this diet dud, try HG's Cinnamonlicious French Toast. It has just 170 calories and 1g fat. And if you crave the sausage links and bacon slices this platter comes with, go for Morningstar Farms' Sausage Links (2 links = 80 calories and 3g fat) and Jennie-O's Extra Lean Turkey Bacon (2 slices = 40 calories and 1g fat). Then finish it off with sugar-free pancake syrup!
Morning Muffin Mayhem!
McDonald's regular Egg McMuffin has 300 calories and 12g fat. For a tiny little muffin? And if you slip up and order the one with sausage, you'll be gobbling up 450 calories and 27g fat. YIKES!! Try HG's Egga Muffin instead, for only 165 calories and 1.5g fat.
600-Calorie B-Fast Sandwich Alert!
Subway may be known for its low-fat sub menu, but think twice before grabbing the sandwich chain's 6-inch Chipotle Steak and Cheese Breakfast Omelet Sandwich. That meaty monstrosity has 600 calories and 32 grams of fat! If you wanna go Southwestern, you'd be way better off with HG's Bueno Breakfast Burrito, with only 170 calories and 5g fat.
Slam Don't! (Denny's 1,040-Calorie Dud!) 
So you're starving ... and you order up Denny's Lumberjack Slam with hash browns. (The thing already includes pancakes, ham, bacon, sausage, AND eggs!) How can we say this politely -- BAD IDEA!!! This massive morning mistake is loaded with 1,040 calories and 53g fat! If you crave a little bit of everything, why not whip up our Super Duper Veggie Scramble (only 150 calories and 5g fat), HG's Very Blueberry Pancakes (201 calories and 2g fat), and our Butternut Hash Browns (85 calories and 1g fat)? ALL of that would cost you only 436 calories and 8g fat -- that's less than HALF the calories and EIGHTY FIVE percent less fat than Denny's Lumberjack disaster! interesting stuff yah???? -MA
