In every culture, eating is not only about nutrition, it's one of the most common rites of socialization. So, when we decide to change our diet to lose weight, it's important to have a plan for eating out socially. Here are a few tips for easing the anxiety while sticking with your program. Once breakfast, lunch, or dinner plans are made, go online to the restaurant's website to study its menu, or stop by and pick one up. You'll arrive prepared and relaxed and able to focus on the social aspect of the occasion. Another trick is to order an appetizer for your entrée. The smaller size may be the key to the caloric intake your diet allows. Avoid buffets; they’re just not worth the temptation. If you can't avoid it, focus on the salads and choose a low-calorie dressing. If you can't make any of the above tricks work, just eat half of what's on your plate and take the other half home for the next night's dinner.
