Hello all,

I have to go to La Tasca tomorrow for my lunch with some work mates and want to still be able to enjoy it without ruining my diet... Anyone know what the best options are on the La Tasca menu?

Thanks! x

    They tell you the lower calorie options on the menu...

    Just pick those.

    Tomato based instead of cream based. Drink loads of water. :smile:
    But you are not going to ruin your diet if you go over on one night. Enjoy yourself and try not to stress too much

    What they both said. Do an estimation. Pick the healthy options if thats what you want and enjoy the food. Youd have to eat 3500 calories for 1lb, thats about 7 Big Macs or 14 mars bars.

    Get some tapas dishes maybe, like prawns and chicken. I haven't been to La Tasca for ages, but I think you can get say 3 little tapas dishes.

    Pre-log your meal, have a plan and most important, enjoy yourself!

    Primarily I would choose the food I love but try not to eat too much of it.
    Alternatvely eat light the rest of the day (maybe skip breakfast?) or get some exercise in so you have plenty of calories to enjoy.

    I'm a firm believer that your weight loss phase should be as close as possible to how you intend to maintain your weight for the long term once you get to goal. So that includes enjoying nice food and fitting it into your week - one day doesn't make a big difference in the long run and can't "ruin your diet".
