Tips On Eating Out

Tips I have read about:
  • Drink water before and during your meal. 
  • If water is too boring for you, add a lemon.
  • Pass on anything that is FREE. Chips, bread, etc.
  • Most meals are more than one serving. If you are with someone else, split something.
  • Just because you order a salad DOES NOT mean it is the healthiest option. If you know what restaurant you are going to, look up the nutritional facts beforehand.
  • If you have a choice for a side item, pass on the fries. They can add an extra 200 calories to your meal!
  • Don't drench your salad with dressing. Instead, dip your fork in the dressing and then dive in to your salad. Repeat this every couple bites.
  • Pass on foods with names that have the words crispy, fried, cheesy, smothered, and creamy.
The one tip I thought of all by myself:
  • When you are full, yet your plate of food is still staring back at you saying "eat me", take your straw and drip water all over. Who wants to eat soggy food?
