Success.com has an article about ways you can eat healthy when dining. Good tips for everyone, especially when the restaurant is unwilling to provide nutritional information for you. Here’s my top 5 from this list:
- 2. Drink at least one full-glass of water or iced tea before eating your meal. This helps your digestive process, and, because you’ll feel full sooner, you will eat less.
- 9. When choosing soup, remember that cream-based soups have many more calories than broth-based ones.
- 23. When ordering sandwiches, order them with mustard only, rather than mayonnaise. Not only does mustard have almost no calories, but you won’t miss the mayo!
- 18. Choose brown rice over white rice (or french fries), whole grain
breads and rolls over white. Not only are they lower in calories, but they are better for you. - 10. If you’re having a full meal, split the appetizer and desert with your companion.
I listed those, because I tend to struggle with those things the most when I’m dining out. My wife usually split an appetizer and dessert, so that helps. Read the full list over at Success.com.
