7 Tips for Cutting Calories at Restaurants


Summary:

Eating out more than three times a week can lead to weight gain unless you make some smarter choices. Here are seven practical tips to reduce calories in restaurant meals while still enjoying your favorites.

1. Avoid Super Sizing

The portions you order are usually large enough. Skip the temptation to super size and save money in the process. You can also order one meal and ask for an extra plate to share with a friend, or choose several appetizers to split for variety without overeating.

2. Pass on the Bread Basket

Unless it's exceptional bread, skip the rolls. This way, you can save room for the main meal you're paying for. If it's hard to resist, ask the server to remove it. At the very least, go without the butter and enjoy whole grain bread on its own.

3. Say No to Sugary Drinks

Soft drinks are overpriced and calorie-laden. Opt for water or diet sodas instead. If you're ordering takeout, skip the drink entirely and start saving those extra dollars.

4. Slow Down Your Eating

Take time to enjoy your meal and recognize when you're full. Chewing slowly not only aids digestion but also enhances the eating experience, allowing you to savor every bite.

5. Trim Fat and Skip the Skin

While the skin and visible fat on meats might taste good, they're loaded with calories. Decide if you want a fleeting taste or long-term health benefits. By opting to skip these, you can enjoy the meal without the extra calories.

6. Use a Doggie Bag

As soon as your meal arrives, portion off some to take home for another day. Most U.S. restaurants serve overly large portions, so this approach not only prevents overeating but also provides you with an extra meal.

7. Educate Yourself

Consider getting "Restaurant Confidential" by Michael F. Jacobson and Jayne Hurley to understand the true calorie content of restaurant meals. Being informed can help you make better choices, especially since some seemingly small items can pack an enormous calorie punch.

Conclusion:

To manage your weight while dining out, focus on where you eat, what you order, and how much you consume. Implement these tips one at a time to easily cut down on calories without sacrificing enjoyment.
