Of course, eating out is always a treat and you should absolutely enjoy it. Use your handy Smartphone to research local restaurants so you can find the ones with the healthiest menus. A great way to cut calories and fat is by asking for sauces and dressing on the side. That way you’ve got a little more control over your portions. Speaking of portions, restaurants tend to serve extra-large ones so consider splitting dishes or just don’t clean your plate. If it feels wasteful, think about the time you’ll have to spend at the gym making up for it.
You can also take advantage of the many diet apps like MyFitnessPal. They allow you to track everything you eat each day, look up the calories in different foods and see whether you’re exercising enough to offset it all. Staying active and burning calories throughout the day is an excellent way to avoid undoing all of your pre-vacation healthy eating.
