eat out! Made you look!
We used to eat out 3 or 4 times a week, but with the economy and changes in our schedules we have cut way back to maybe once a week or every other week.
As small business owners, we are taking it on the chin right now. The upside is I have discovered that I can grill steak, chicken or fish just as good as anything we can buy at a restaurant.
How about you other fellas?

We eat out twice a month. Fast food is fine once in awhile, but nothing beats Mrs. BW's home fixins, especially when she uses the slow cooker or crock pot! )-m

we eat out once to twice a week; usally once at the DIner, the equivalent of a Denny's. It's getting pricey, but it gives u time to chat.
-
we out way too much. Seems like for lunch we are always going to get something. Most of our dinners are at home though...except for the pizza night at Bobe's and that is about every friday night.
-
We eat out too much. Probably 3+ times a week. We need to cut back on that, but it's convenient when we're real busy. But, it's too expensive and too fattening. We eat healthier when cooking at home.
-
with my job i eat out at least once a day. I try to buy food and cook in the room when I can.
When I'm home I cook as much as possible, the only eating out I do there is at my brothers restaurant.
-
Maximum of once a month and then that is usually a fish fry.
-
we average probably once or twice a week.

Once a month. The gf and I love to cook at home and eat out in the garden (did that come out right?).
-
Never during the week..... once or twice on weekends.
-
I am pretty lucky right now living a mile from my folks. My Mom cooks dinner EVERY night so I eat there about four or five times a week! I was deprived while in the military for ten years, because my Mom puts most cooks to shame!

DEPENDS on waht you eat....lettuce has a tendency to 'unplug" a person...

At home, usually lunch during the week, and ;maybe once or twice every two weeks. I like to cook myself, I find it very satisfying to start and complete something within a short time period--my work is almost entirely long term projects. One thing I've found, since I do cook, I know what has been done right and what has been screwed up--so it eliminates some restaurants. Never, or almost never, eat fast food. The exception is on the road--my new job has a lot of "on the road." Even then, I try to find "fast" food places that give me some chance of not totally screwing my diet. Dinner on the road can be a challenge-- but I've found some great Japanese restaurants, 'real" Mexican, and on my most recent trip a great Lebonese place with absolutely the best hummus I've ever put in my mouth.

Does going to a bar count? I mean it is an intake of calories. If it does 1-3 times/week. If not 1-2 times/month.

once or twice/ week

We rarely eat out -- it's a special occasion thing. I cook every evening except Fridays (when we get take-out from the local Chinese joint).
-
We eat once a week at our fav mexican restaurant. Been doing it for years. Its therapy of sorts. We don't even order from the menu, they just bring us our usual when we walk in the door.
-
We used to eat out once or twice a week, but we've cut back on that bigtime.
Now it's maybe a couple of times a month.
We're big on mexican too, sly. O0

We eat out a couple of times a week as a family. I end up eating alot of fast food during the week for lunch. I would like to get on a better routine of taking my lunch and eating healthier for lunch. But it seem to take more planning than I have been doing lately.

We almost never eat out. We go out on the anniversary and sometimes for b-days. When we are going to be traveling to shows and such we cook alot of easy stuff and stick it in bags and bowls so we can toss it in the cooler. I think the last time we ate out was back in April. It would be nice to go to a chinses place every now and then but most of the stuff is so easy to cook and dirt cheap.
Also we went to a new Russian resteraunt in town last winter and I expected to have food like mom cooked like a nice warm borsht and piroshkies and all the good home cooking, we went and I ordered what sounded good and it was nasty. I should have known it wouldnt be good when I noticed that none of the employees could speak Russian. It was disappointing.

The wife and I used to eat out 2-3 times a week but since we have been trying to lose weight it's down to about 1 to 2 times a month....I have lost over 20 lbs since June .. O0
-
Most of our eating out is at lunch, probably 2 to 3 times a week. Though, we probably eat out for dinner once a weekend; usually with family or friends.
-

This went into effect some time ago here in NS, restaurants aren't hurting, they just opened outdoor patios.
