Blame It On the Food!!

Okay, I admit it. I like to eat. Being a college student, who is constantly busy, I never really have time to prepare food so I tend to eat out quite often; but,there are ways to eat out and still be healthy.

Tips On Eating Out:

• Many menus these days have a lower calorie section on their Menus. For example, Applebees' has a menu specifically for meals under 550 calories.
• Plan your meal beforehand. Many restaurants have their menus online.
• Look at portion sizes. You do not have to finish everything that is on your plate. Or you could always substitute your main dish for an appetizer.
• AVOID THE BUFFET!!

• Also, when choosing your dish avoid meals that are fried or breaded. It is okay to choose the burger over the friend chicken nuggets.
• Do not suffocate your food in condiments such as mayonnaise and heavy dressings. Opt for oil or a vinaigrette dressing.
• As I mentioned in a previous post, water is your friend! Water is the best choice of beverage to have when eating out. Sugary sodas are wasted calories.
