Eating out can sometimes be a real bugbear for weight loss and for people caring for the quality of their diet. The menus are sometimes so long that it can become a real headache to choose a healthy and nutritious meal while having fun. To guide you in your choices at the restaurant, here are some tips that can help you.
1. The restoration of "fast food" type are limited. Fast food chains offer food that we can, in the long term, affect our waistlines of their sugar content and fat. By cons, which is the most damaging in foods such restaurants is the amount of salt they contain. For example, a Big Mac at McDonald's contains 1,020 mg of sodium. Considering that the recommended daily intake of sodium is 1,500 mg, we realize quickly that accompany our burger fries and condiments, we have just passed the recommended intake in one meal. In this kind of restaurant, opt for grilled meat or fish breaded rather than limiting yourself to ketchup and mustard versions rather than style BBQ sauce or tartare. And of course, avoid fries as possible.
2. We choose grilled meats and lean cuts: In the à la carte restaurant, pieces of meat like loin and veal chops, roast pork, beef or veal or the inside round steak are very interesting because they contain between 2% and 5% fat Additionally, when you order a plate of red meat, be sure to remove visible fat around the meat.
3. poultry skin is removed: When you opt for poultry such as chicken, turkey, or duck, make sure to remove the skin. The latter brings nearly 60 calories per portion in addition to providing 85 mg of cholesterol.
4. frying and sauces are avoided: These are very important sources of calories and fat. When you order a dish that contains the sauce or dressing, ask your server to put it in a separate container. So you can control the amount you add (half amply sufficient most of the time).
5. pasta is preferred tomatoes, vegetables or meat: Opt for these choices rather than pasta with creamy sauces and pinkish white (alfredo, dew) that are high in fat and calories.
6. chips are replaced: Substitute fries with a baked potato (without filling), rice, salad (with little dressing) or skipped to reduce your sodium intake and fat vegetables.
7. We opted for the slim: When possible, choose thin crust pizzas rather than very thick and stuffed with cheese pasta added sugar, fat and unnecessary calories to your pizza.
8. we go "molo" on salt: Avoid adding salt your dishes. Cooks put before a significant amount of salt to enhance the taste and flavor of their dishes. Pepper is allowed against smoothly.
9. is preferred water: a good glass of water is still a better option than soft drinks, fruit juices and "beverages" fruit containing large amounts of sugar.
10. is completed with fruit: For dessert, opt for fruit salads or sorbets. Allow yourself only one small piece of cake or pie a week.
By following these tips, you can save as much as 500 calories in one meal without interfering with your enjoyment of you enjoy a good meal in a restaurant or feel on a diet!
