I am really bad when it comes to eating out. I for some reason just go crazy when I eat out. I am not sure why I can't make better choices. I know when you eat out you aren't eating the best, but why can't I just choice to make better choices!!

Has anyone ever had this problem. I do well at home, most of the time. But when it comes to eating out I just go bonkers!!!

    Hi mrsbuzz :flowerforyou: Have you tried getting your hands on the menu BEFORE :noway: you go and eat out, ( this way you can analyze the menu and see what will be good for you AND even perhaps some calories over for a light pudding) :drinker: set your mind on something healthy but tasty and only order that meal :bigsmile: I find that if I keep on thinking about the meal my mouth is watering for it by the time it arrives at the table and I then enjoy it enormously:smooched:

    Sometimes I wonder…………..
    “Why is that Frisbee getting Bigger?”
    ………………..and then it Hits me

    Yes, I have done that but for some reason I just kind go I am eating out I want to eat what I really want!!!
  • I try to avoid eating out for that reason. I am the same way!

    I think that was a good idea checking out the menu ahead of time, but if you can't convince yourself otherwise, I ask the server for a box with my meal.

    I put more than half of my meal in the box and eat what i have on my plate, that way if I do eat bad, at least it's not a lot!
