Don't be discouraged, Eating out is difficult. What I do when I will be eating out is if they have it I go on line and look at the menu ahead of time. This way I decide what I want and don't have to look at the menu when I am there. If you can't find the menu on line you can call them and ask if they can make you a simple steak and broccoli etc. You can usually ask for double broccoli and no potato. As for the Bread,ask for the bread not to be put on the table but if you can't do that for others ask that they keep it by them and don't let you have it. They will have fun with you if you are tempted. The same with dessert tell you dinner companions that it is off limits and that no way are you to have it. Good Luck!
