With our increasingly busy lifestyle many families are choosing
to eat out more often. While it may be rather expensive, for
some it is the only logical choice. However, if you’re trying
to watch your weight, it can be difficult making the right food
selections while eating out at restaurants!
This is a simple guide to some kinds of popular foods that
people often choose when they eat out.
Chinese (and Asian food generally) offers a wide variety of
broth-based soups, stir-fried treats, steamed fish and
vegetable dishes, rice, chow mien, and other menu items that
delicious low-calorie and low fat choices.
There are of course many foods that you should avoid as well.
Fried egg rolls, fried wontons, dishes made with duck, egg foo
yung, and fried chicken should not be ordered if you’re trying
to eat healthy. It isn’t that they are bad dishes; they simply
tend to have more fat and salt in them than the others. Fried
rice should be replaced by steamed rice. The all-you-can-eat
buffet should be avoided at all costs (regardless of what type
of food).
If you are lucky enough to have a good quality restaurant with
Indian Cuisine, you have a number of delicious healthy, low-fat
options to choose from. Chicken, fish, veggies, steamed rice;
legumes are included in healthy dishes throughout the menu.
Bean soups are delicious and healthy. You can opt for Chapati,
Chicken or Shrimp Vindaloo, or Lamb kabobs. The main dishes to
exclude when dining out in the Indian Restaurants are the fried
breads, dishes served with large amounts of nuts and dishes made
with coconut milk. Overall, Indian cuisine is a wonderful dining
option when you are watching what you eat.
Some of the most fattening dishes you could possibly dream of
are found in Italian Restaurants. Fried Mozzarella sticks,
Lasagna, thick creamy Alfredo pasta dishes and many others
cloud your judgment when skimming over the menu. However, you
will also find many healthy dishes to make your mouth water as
well. Thin crust pizza with vegetable toppings, pasta with
tomato-based sauces, chicken cacciatore, chicken Marsala, and
biscotti are a few items that will keep you at the Italian
table without having to give up your commitment to cut calories
and watch fat intake. Salads and soup choices are also something
to consider. Avoid most deserts in the Italian Restaurants, most
are just like the cheese dishes you find here, very rich.
You may have many opportunities to eat out with your wife and
friends. It’s important to remember that while you are watching
you’re weight, you don’t have to exclude yourself from all of
the great food available in quality restaurants. You simply
need to pay attention to what you are eating and remember that
moderation goes along way.
