Have you ever sabotaged your
own weight loss while eating out without even knowing
it? It is easy to lose track of the amount of fat and
calories you consume when eating out. This can be very
difficult to deal with if your lifestyle includes eating
at restaurants often. The good news is that you can eat
out without gaining weight.
The trick to eating out is similar to the trick to shopping
well in the grocery store. Many people believe that losing
weight starts when they choose what foods to pick up and
put in their mouths, but the real time of reckoning comes
when a person chooses what food to purchase, whether at
the store or at a restaurant. Of course, there are some
times when you eat at a friend’s house or at a party.
But, let’s face it, most people provide themselves
with their own food. Unless you rely on your friends or
the kindness of strangers for your daily bread, you make
the choice just before you pay for your food. Therefore,
it is important to think about what you are purchasing.
When you buy a large item, such as a car, you will consider
the various attributes before making a purchase. The same
principle applies to buying food. Even if the individual
items cost much less than an entire car, the cost of all
of your food from restaurants and grocery stores adds
up to a large chunk of your income. Not only that, but
your life expectancy and appearance are related to the
choices you make. Take the same time you would to decide
about a large purchase like a house, flat, or vehicle
to decide on what you buy to put into your own body.
At a restaurant, you must have a general idea before starting
that you are going to look for the foods that will make
you look, feel, and live better. This is made very easy
in restaurants that put a symbol on the menu next to the
items that are ‘low fat’ or ‘heart healthy’.
Some restaurants give this information for the convenience
of their patrons. Sometimes the best items on the menu
are marked by a ‘low calorie’ icon because
the entrees are made with simple ingredients with high
quality. For example, one of the best tasting foods on
one menu was on the ‘heart healthy’ list because
it was made with fresh, healthy ingredients. The shrimp
pasta with a flavorful marinara sauce and fresh vegetables
was filling, heart healthy and could be ordered with whole
grain pasta that added another succulent layer of texture
and flavor to the dish. This was one of the best dishes
on the menu and it was very tasty.

If you enjoy a restaurant
that does not specify the foods that are good for you, you must
use common sense. For example, you can ask for salad dressing
‘on the side’ when ordering a salad. Some salad
dressings can make a salad as fattening as another dish with
the amount of calories and fat in the dressing. Croutons and
bits of fatty meat may help a salad taste a little bit better,
but it may take the calories and fat to a level similar to that
of a higher calorie dish. Also, if you are in the mood for a
hot dish, you do not need to resort to a salad. A well made
salmon or tilapia dish may fill you up and give you more flavor
than a salad. If you have questions about how a dish is made,
do not be afraid to ask the waiter or waitress and find out
what your options are. While some chefs may be sensitive to
any alterations of their menu, most understand the necessary
dietary constraints that people are under and will accommodate
them to the best of their ability. Also, having sauces served
on the side can give you more control over the amount of added
calories in a dish.
Whether you are eating ‘fast food’ or at a ‘sit
down’ restaurant, it is important to use common sense
and choose foods that fit into your daily plan. Fast foods provide
labeling that can help make decisions. Other restaurants can
provide steamed vegetables and broiled meats that will help
you stay on track without sacrificing a full stomach and good
taste. Losing weight may be a bit more difficult when eating
out, but once you learn the tricks, you will be thrilled with
the results.
Feel
Great by Losing Weight comment:
Yes difficult isn’t it. The last thing
you want when eating out is to ruin your weight
loss efforts. Then again what is the point in eating
out if you can’t eat your favourite foods?
A bit of a dilemma really. But help is at hand.
If you follow the information in our flagship product
the “Feel Great by Losing Weight” programme

loss plans. They are called “cheat meals”
and offer a stress free approach to weight loss.
