Begin with a Salad
Many restaurants have a variety of salads on their menus. Salads can help fill you up with fiber-rich veggies and deliver critical nutrients at the start of your meal. To keep portions under control, serve dressings on the side.
Select Lean Proteins
When choosing your entrée, look for dishes that include lean proteins such as grilled chicken, turkey, or fish. These options have less saturated fat and can be equally as filling as their richer equivalents.
Watch Your Condiments
Condiments, sauces, and dressings can add extra calories and sodium to your meal. Request them on the side and just use them sparingly.
Embrace Grilled and Steamed Options
Instead of frying, look for things that are made by grilling or steaming. Grilled veggies, chicken breast, or steaming shellfish can all be tasty and healthy options.
Portion Control
Dinners at diners are frequently served in substantial servings. Consider splitting your lunch or ordering a to-go box ahead of time to save some for later. This manner, you can eat your favorite diner food without going overboard.
Drink Wisely
Avoid sugary sodas and copious amounts of coffee with cream and sugar. To keep your beverage options in check, drink water, unsweetened iced tea, or black coffee.
Don’t Skip Dessert
If you have a sweet tooth, don’t go without dessert. Instead, consider sharing a dessert or opting for a smaller portion to satisfy your sweet tooth without overindulging.
Pay Attention to Your Body
Finally, pay attention to your body’s hunger and fullness cues. Eat gently and thoroughly. It’s fine to leave a few nibbles on your plate if you start to feel full.
