Out to dinner
 

Hi! i need some help! I am doing WW and we're going out to dinner tomorrow and i researched the menu and was wondering what you all thought the best lowest points would be... (or calories for those who dont do ww)

I will have about 12 points saved for dinner possibly 14 if i am a real trooper in the morning! just let me know your thoughts-- thanks guys!!

there is a spinach artichoke dip for an app (i love this, served with veggies... but i can probably skip it, especially if no one else orders it)

but for my meal i am debating a lobster roll (maybe not eat the bun?)

or baked stuffed shrimp

from what i can tell the lobster roll is probably about a cup of meat which is 2 points... butter on the side

and the shrimp from what ive read... and i could be wrong, i think it is 3 for 4 points? does that sound right?? thanks for your help!

It might be helpful if you tell us where you are going.

its a local restaurant in ct, i cant post a link but it is called the gelston house... you can google it and see a menu, sorry i cant post the link!

i am very open to suggestions, thank you!

I don't know the calorie counts or WW points of either of those foods, but I'd say go for the one that hasn't got mayonnaise or butter. Leaving out the bread roll is a sure way to cut probably about 150 calories which is maybe around 3 points, not got my points calculator handy right now.

It's a little more pricy, but I bet the following would be better (depending on portion sizes).
