Just because you are on a diet doesn't mean that you can't go out and eat at a restaurant.
With a little knowledge and planning you can successfully go out and eat. Here are a few tips that will help you keep from straying off the diet path.
1. Try meat in a new way instead of fried. It can be steamed , roasted , broiled ,baked and grilled. If you like steak get the leaner cuts like flank.
2. Eat off the appetizer menu. Choices there are a lot smaller and if you are really starving get a side side salad with it.
3. Have your waiter wrap up half of your dinner before you eat it . This way you won't be tempted to eat it all in one sitting.
4. If you know where you are going that night for dinner have the restaurant fax you a menu and pick the healthiest choice on the menu. Arm yourself.
5. Stay away from the heavy sauces. Anything that says cream sauce, battered or dipped in batter, butter or breaded and gravy. They are loaded with extra calories and fat .
6. Eat smaller meals all through the day if you will be dining out that night so that you won't eat so much at the restaurant.
7. And finally stay away from the buffets. Studies show the more choices that there are to eat the more we do eat and portion control goes out the window. If you do eat at a buffet make the first plate the only plate the only plate that you have and if that still doesn't work or you just can't resist all the good stuff make your first plate one of just fruit and vegetables or salads(watch the dressings).
