  1. We went to Applebee's tonight for dinner. Their new specials are 7oz steaks plus shrimp (5 medium)
    done in various ways. On the side was Mashed potatoes (1cup), steamed veggies (no butter) and garlic
    toast (should have skipped this).

    I had the Teriyaki steak and the Coconut Shrimp (nice combination). I asked for a To-go container
    before I started eating (good girl) and set aside half of my meal home for lunch tomorrow. Hence,
    my mini NSV.

    I'm guessing 13 total points: 4 points for the 3.5oz of steak (lean), 2 points for the 1/2c mashed
    potatoes, 4 points for the garlic toast, 3 points for 3 shrimp

    For dessert I had decaf coffee (can you believe that?) but had a skinny cow at home after we had
    done some shopping. I was comfortable with the amount of food I had for dinner and did not need any
    dessert while we were there. My friend had her usual high-calorie goo so I had the coffee to keep me
    from going nuts. <g>

    Does this look right? The ones that I am not really sure of are the shrimp and the garlic toast and
    I can't seem to find them in any of my sources.

  2. mashed potatoes are two points from Ryan's, sour dough toast is 3 from Bob Evan's, and the shrimp
    are next to nothing themselves but you need to figure what was on them, steak is probably 3 or four

    I think this whole meal out is one big honking NSV, Like this... 1 you got two meals for the price
    of one 2 you didn't let your friend's choices be an excuse or intimidate you 3 you are making
    choices that are right for you 4 you are coming up with a reasonable estimate of the points 5 you
    had a nice time and didn't let food mess up your day 6 you got a dessert at home, that was
    appropriate for the way you choose to eat, This is a bunch of NSV power for one meal, Lee Laura
