How to eat out healthily

Nine tips to help you eat healthy even when out

By Dr Miriam Stoppard


  • Sip water before and during the meal instead of high-calorie soft drinks.


  • Fill up first with a salad and have little or no dressing.

  • Order vegetable pasta or a baked potato. If it comes with a high-fat sauce or sour cream, ask for it on the side and eat very little of it.

  • Eat veg, resist chips. Steal a few from your partner.

  • Go for fish or chicken rather than red meat and have it baked or grilled.

  • Eat a few crackers, or breadsticks rather than big hunks of white bread.

     
  • Avoid margarine, butter and fried foods.

  • Always get a sandwich without mayonnaise.

  • Split dessert.
