What's for dinner ?

Chicken stir fry and fried rice
Hot Dogs
Hot brats with spicy brown mustard and some chips.
Roast beef and colby-jack cheese sandwich
Salmon rubbed with teriyaki sauce and asparagus spritzed with olive oil, garlic, and parmesan cheese. And some hot dogs for the non-salmon fans.
That sounds and looks great!
I griddled some burger served with friend onions and garlic butter toasted buns.

Chicken breast and potatoes
Tonight the Texas Roadhouse will be making my dinner. It's a family tradition that whoever is having a birthday in the family chooses the restaurant. It's my wife's big day and she loves the Roadhouse. I'm going to try their take on chicken fried steak for something different.
Pork chops and asparagus
The roadhouse was very good but not cheap. I'm glad my wife did without lunch and we dined early. The line to get into the place was long when we left at five. The wife had a salad, ribeye and sides and I tried their country fried steak and sides. We shared a cactus flower (deep fried onion dish with a dip) and we both had iced tea. With tip it was seventy buckolas. It was great food and service though more than I'm accustomed to paying for a meal.
Baked whitefish and a salad.
Monday I start a 3-day fast, only water.
I'm 6ft 1 and I weigh 205 with a little gut I want to get rid of...

That doesn't sound too bad for Texas Roadhouse. Red Lobster is another chain that will cost $$$ ya.

Does beer count as water intake.... asking for a friend. 
Good luck with your fast. My son swears by them.

It isn't that much in the scheme of quality dinning out. It's just something we don't do often. I like my cooking better than I can buy for the most part and at a fraction of the expense. Special occasions call for special meals. I did not feel cheated by the roadhouse. It was quality in every aspect.
Added roadhouse story: The first time we ate there I received a text. I answered using the new to me feature of voice to text. I said we are eating at the Texas Roadhouse. The text I sent said we are eating at the Texas outhouse.
Wife & I just got back from the Kroger, they are literally putting those yellow sticker things on the shelves that say an item is reduced when it's not. Trying to make us feel better about paying higher prices 😊
Yesterday, I bought three pound packages of 85% ground beef marked down from $ 6.99 to $4.99 a pound. Last week I bought the same ground beef at the same store for $ 4.59 a pound. I call shenanigans too.
In shopping for, "What's For Dinner", I have found the Kroger's and Albertson's prices higher than other grocery retailers.
My son says it helps cleanse the body. He isn't strictly keto but stays close to a high protein low carb diet. He's always been fit but he works at it now that he's into his forties. He has a gym and works out most every morning before work. He eats only one meal a day and never snacks or drinks sodas. Weight is a lot easier to put on than take off. Maintaining a good diet and some sort of exercise goes a long way. I admire you for addressing unwanted weight. I wish you all kinds of luck with your fast.
