Just got to exercise outside of your house, gym,inside, whereever u go.just got to control what you eat. Life is sooo short folks..Of all of respecet, for those are overwieght, tha doesn't exercise, thats ur choice and your fault..its not the resturants fault..they make the specials..its up to you to say a wake up call that its very important to stay healthy as possible! =)

I think it's about time to let people know how many calories are in the food they are eating when they eat out. It is atrosous what kind of damage they can cook up and the public is totally unaware. Too bad they can't make real food without all the extra fat and crap. I can, and I don't eat out as often as I used to thanks to a new awareness. It's fine when you are young and active with a great burning metabolism but look at the number of obese people. It's because most people have no idea of their calorie intake. shame on food manufacturers who only care about the almighty bucks.

The teaser said, "bad news if you like Ruby Tuesdays." So.. I figured it was another going out of business story...another restaurant closing. BUT... it turned out to be nothing but another calorie counting load of CRAP. WHO THE F**K CARES? If I want to eat a 2000 calorie burger, I'll EAT IT!! Why do these panty waisted fagotts continue to try and get the rest of us to eat healthy. Isn't that OUR OWN BUSINESS...our own decision?? Please God protect us all from people who would legislate our morality and our personal choices.

According to these Calorie counters, you'll spent all your life on a Treadmill , B,S, eat smaller portions ,include a Salad with your meal and have your favorite Desert only once a week. For exercise take a 30 to 45 minute walk outside in the fresh Air at least 4 times per week and you'll see those extra pounds melt right off .We eat too much food on our Plate, just go to an all you can eat Buffet and you'll will be amazed just by watching how much Food they put on their Plate. No other Country around the World consumes as much Food as we do, sad.

A.O.L. has been on Ruby Tuesdays ass for as long as I can remember.I rarely see anything negative about any other restaurants. What the hell is the problem with Ruby Tuesday's? I am not a huge fan of Tuesdays myself, but AOL has it in for them. I'm sniffing for a law suite.
