I am still in light ketosis this AM - weight is at 176 lbs. My menu yesterday was a bit high on carbs but good on calories - not bad considering my lunch came with a fried cheesecake (I declined it). I subbed a second order of mixed veggies for the tator or fries. Couldn't pass up having a roll there however - this is a small chain similar to Red Lobster except the food is much better and the rolls are fantastic. The Red Lobster four blocks from this place closes down during the non-tourist season because none of the locals go there anymore.... http://www.upthecreekusa.com/html/index.shtml
