What app are you using to track the weight, calories, etc?

Myfitness pal.

 

But for steps I used an app called Pacer.

Fish was hot and crispy and just perfect. The tuna was fresh and tasty. 

 

A tuna Poke Bowl on QV is one of my 'yes please' in the restaurant. The tuna, along with a plate of tuna sashimi is absolutely  first rate.

As an aside, the tuna is fresh as in freshly unfrozen. 🙂

Fresh tasting I should say 😆 I know I won't likely ever see fresh seafood on a cruise ship.

Good luck and well done on dodging the fries with the burger 🤣.

[Victoria2]

jam19872016 I'd choose that [Lido] over the pub. or in your case, as well as! 😁 Looks pretty good to me.

Bit skinny with the chips with the burger - have you sneaked a few before the snap?

I never eat there, but I’m sure I’ve read several reviews saying that there is hardly any choice in the buffet. Yet again I wonder if the people who write them are on the same ship. Or perhaps they simply don’t look in the right place.

[jam19872016]

This is an obscene amount of food at this point.

Momma feeling lucky tonight. Doing a little gambling.

There's no going back to the Lido now. I should have been coming here all along. I just know to cut my order back some next time 😆

That was all the fries but trust me it was way way too much food 😅.  In fact I didn't finish all the fries from the second plate.

Plenty of choice and I should have gone there. I witnessed not one,  but two scandals at the pub.

 

First I tried to verify the salt and pepper situation and to my dismay, there were neither available. 

 

As if that was not bad enough, take note of my baked macaroni plating.

 

 

The blue bowl was placed on a red plate 😲 😱. My mom's was correctly plated red matching red but mine was sloppily put together and not one person caught it before serving me this way.

 

Disgraceful.

My head is spinning with the amount of food you just posted! How can anyone complain about lack of meal choices outside Britannia? Quite impressive. 

[jam19872016]

Casino wasn't any kinder to my mom than me although like me, she was able to play for a bit before it ate all her money.

 

Digesting for a few minutes then will head out for a drink or two.
