2. Eat your Salad. Not only will it help to fill you up but you will find that you have consumed fewer calories overall. It also provides you with a good dose of anti-oxidants which are great for ensuring that your heart stays healthy. But make sure you get the waitress to leave off the croutons and the cheese. Choose a dressing that is made using vinegar and olive oil.
3. Choose a Healthy Entree. Go for entrees that are either broiled or grilled rather than fried. It will not only save you calories but will decrease the amount of fat grams you are consuming. Also consider have 2 portions of vegetables with this part of the meal. If you do need a sauce with your meal, choose one that is tomato-based rather than those containing cream. Get the restaurant to serve the sauce as a side order to your meal, then only use as much as you really need. 4. Choose Healthier Drinks with your Meal. Instead of going for the alcoholic option when dining out, go for either iced tea sweetened with a non-caloric sweetener or just water with lemon. You would be surprised at the number of calories you can consume with just the drinks served with your meal. 5. You can Still Indulge your Sweet Tooth. Many restaurants now provide a low fat or low carbohydrate dessert selection. But if a healthy dessert is not an option, then instead have a cup of coffee with skimmed milk to help get around the craving for something sweet at the end of the meal. 6. Practice Portion Control. Unfortunately many restaurants serve extremely large portions. They are quite often twice as large as what you would eat at home. So why not put part of your main course aside and then take it home with you? Plus if you are able to remove it from your plate before you start eating you are less tempted to actually over-indulge. Dining out no longer has to be a chore, nor an excuse to break your diet. In fact healthy restaurant eating can be just as enjoyable.
