Day Nine - Everything is Fine!!

Today the plan is to head to the Dr. Poon clinic to learn about how to read nutrition labels...I am looking forward to this because I find that I am scrutinizing every thing that I put in my mouth these days and having a better foundation will only work to my benefit.  Yesterday I went out to Milestones (a restaurant).  I asked the waiter for the nutritional menu, which he brought to me,  From that, I was able to choose some salmon.  I of course asked for it to be make with no added seasonings... just the fish.  Waiter assured me this would be done.  40 mins later when we get the food, surprise- it had been made with garlic butter :(  The manager who was so helpful, came and ensured me that I would be receiving a new fresh piece just as I had asked for it.  20 mins later, I  got the fish just as I wanted,  When it came time for the bill, the waiter said "there is no bill"!!  So, my friend and I went home full bellied only shelling out $20.00 as a tip!  Aside from that, the fish was actually really good.  I only squeezed lemon on it and pepper.  It came with asparagus, but I wasn't convinced that the asparagus hadn't been made with the same garlic butter, so I only ate a few sprouts of it.  All in all, a good dining out experience!!  So it is possible to eat out, just make sure to see the nutritional info and ensure that they cook it to your specifications.
