6 Tips to Stay Healthy while Dinning Out

 
 
 

True or false:

Is it possible to lose weight while still eating at restaurants?

TRUE!

In fact, none of my clients give up dining-out while they are focusing on losing weight!

However, it is important to eat consciously while dining-out… don’t let one night out lead to a week or more of self-sabotaging decisions!

Looking for some tips to help you stay on track while dining out?

Keep these tips in mind:

1. Box up half of your entree as soon as it comes to the table, BEFORE you start to eat. This tip is the easiest way to control your portion sizes. As soon as your food comes out, simply ask your server for a box and put half in the box for leftovers.

2. Only order what’s truly worth it to you. If you LOVEEEE burgers, then choose a healthy side to go with it. Or, if french fries are your thing, then order a grilled chicken breast with the fries. Don’t treat going out to eat as an excuse to order ALL the non-nutritious foods from the menu.

3. Watch the toppings on your salad. If you choose to order a salad, beware of the toppings. Salads aren’t *always* the healthiest choice. Toppings like cheese, croutons, fried noodles, bacon, and creamy dressings can add lots of calories.
