    Just been to the Pitch Sports Bar and Grill. The only friggin place in the whole of town with NO INFO on their menu either in the pub or on their website. Trust me!
    It has taken me over an hour and lots of estimating and guess work to sort everything out seperately.
    I had gammon steak, peas, mushrooms, egg and cajun wedges.

    Anyone who tells you to Google something can go fly a kite. Part of the fun of a forum is for a sense of community and interaction with other humans.


    I can't suggest any UK restaurants, but when it comes down to it- order the lean meats, grilled over fried, minimal sauces to cut calories- you know the drill.

    OR you can do what I do- order what you want but only eat about half of it. Save the other half for dinner tomorrow.

    You could also ask the server if they could recommend some healthier options.

    well you dont really eat out to have meat and salad. I wanted someone to recommend something that i couldnt work out myself. For example if steak with peas and peppercorn sauce is low in salt but high in carbs. And which type of desserts have the least fat and calories. I dont find your reply very helpful at all.

    I think what she was trying to say is that 'eating out' often is part of a lifestyle that leads to weight gain and will hamper your success. Splurging on a massive steak and chips at a pub once a week is fine, but doing it 'often' will definitely be a problem, no matter what healthy options there may be.

    To be honest, I never go for a meal at a pub to eat healthy, it's not really worth the money if you're just getting some salad and veg. I'd just eat less often and have what you want once a week.

    I live in the UK and I would defo reccomend Nandos. Just stay away from the fries. Even Brewers Faye do Half a Peri Peri chicken with a jacket spud and salad. Just ask for the dressing on the side. India I would go with a veg curry and just a little rice or Tandori chicken/chicken tikka with salad on a chipati. Way better that Nann bread. Hope this helps.
