I think I am about to eat my words - I had previously asked the community if calorie labeling laws would prevent others from eating highly caloric food. I was thrilled by the thought of Starbucks publicizing calories in drinks and snacks. I rely on the services like the dailyplate.com to keep track of how many calories I have each day and how much fat, carbs and protein I eat.

But tonight I am having dinner at the Melting Pot. The DailyPlate informed me that a 3 course fondu meal for 1 person is well over 2,000 calories. I still want to go but worry I won't be able to enjoy myself. Is it okay to indulge once in a while?
