What should we take note of when going out to eat.
by the way, this is my homework-project. So don’t mistaken me about diet. Is something that is regarding in the healthy pyramid (:
Try these tips for healthy restaurant eating:
1. Eat a healthy small snack before going out to dinner.
2. Remove the breadbasket from the table. (Or in my case, the chips and salsa.)
3. Ask for what you want. Most restaurant kitchens can easily accommodate your healthy requests. Channel your inner Harry Met Sally.
4. Eat leaner protein such as chicken, fish, or lean steak. Order them baked, steamed, or grilled.
4. Ask for salad dressing on the side. Dip your fork in the dressing first and then bite the salad.
5. Drink water instead of soda.
7. Put your fork down between bites and listen to your body. When you are full, ask the waiter to wrap up the rest of your dinner so you can take it home.
8. Don’t deprive yourself at the meal. If you want desert, order it and share it will your dining companions.
I hope your project goes well.

Don’t order anything "Fried" instead get the grilled version and eat half the portion and save the other half for a later meal.

Choose grilled foods, not fried (fried have way too much grease, fat, oils, etc)
Choose plain potato options, not loaded with cheese, sour cream or bacon.
Stay away from what you know is fattening…like bacon, lots of cheese, butter, etc.
Choose veggies or fruit as your side, instead of fries or potato-anything.
And if you can, go out to eat once a week, anymore than that and you are piling on the calories and fat.

the amount of oil & or butter if any that’s used !!. & sugar,., that horrible SALT might just be used for taste !?!… you know bring out that certain amount of flavor you like!?! DRAIN most if not ALL foods WELL !! before serving !! Eat more baked foods !! trim the fat on most things you’ll consume !! How’s that for a LITTLE advice ? .r’`R`’r.

the proportions are WAY LARGER THEN NORMAL. if you are on a diet, then i’d suggest eating about a third of it, and bringing the rest home! the other night i was at apple bee’s and got a salad, and ate the whole thing
turns out it was almost 4 servings and put me 600 calories over my diet plan. whoops! was good though
