Healthy Dining

Healthy Food Choices 

I know how tempting it can be when friends invite you out for dinner at your favorite restaurant with all your favorite foods that will probably work against your fitness goals...lol. Dining out at your favorite spot doesn't have to leave you feeling guilty and working extra hard the next day to burn it all off. 

Here are a couple tips that will satisfy your taste buds and not sabotage your fitness goals at the same time.

1. Portion control

Split your meal in half and take a portion to go.

2. Skip the soda and wine

When soda and wine breakdown, it's stored as sugar in your body. Try drinking water only. This will give you a bit more room to indulge on your meal.

3. Get dressings and sauces on the side
A restaurant can make something as healthy as a salad unhealthy if it's loaded with too much dressing. 

4. Switch up the menu with substitutes and special requests

As we all know life is about give and take... eating healthy is no different. If you want a 
burger, instead of fries on the side, opt for veggies.

I hope these tips help. Share what's been working for you. Leave your comments below.
