Will going out to eat on the weekends once in a while mess with your weight. I try to look at menu and nutrition first and make sure.

Where you eat doesn't matter. Only how much you eat is important.

I do find it a bit more difficult to control myself if there is an abundance of food available. The typical serving size in a USA restaurant is actually two or three servings.

It's what you choose to eat, not where you eat it.

Most of the places we choose when we eat out don't have nutrition information posted. I just order based on the description of how it's prepared and whether I care if I go over my normal calories or not.

I assume I'll have some bloating after since nearly all restaurant meals are considerably higher in sodium than I'm used to.

Yes, I try to go online and look at the menu first to make choices. Almost everybody has a variety of entree salads, and you can get them without cheese or croutons or dressing. And most restaurants nowadays show calories counts, which is very cool and helpful!

A rule that I used in the past that was pretty helpful was to eat half of what is brought to you, and take the rest for another meal.
