We all love hanging out with friends, but we all hate being the only one at a party just eating the salad. When we have been so good for days and suddenly we throw a burger at our face, we may begin feeling discourage and even guilty. You don't want to order a 2,000 calorie meal, but you also don't want to stay home just to save calories. One quick trick that can save you hundreds of calories and also save you big chunks of money is ordering water at restaurants. A single soda can pack up to 300 calories plus dozens of grams of sugar, and I am not even talking about the big beverage cups at fast food restaurants! Getting into the habit of just drinking water can help a lot if you are trying to stay healthy, besides its free! and you can have as many as you like. Another helpful tip is going to restaurants that offers a healthy menu. Olive Garden has a delicious plate of Tilapia that is only 450 calories that comes with steamed veggies and a delicious lemony sauce. If what you want is fast food, one of my favorites is Daphne, a greek restaurant that has the most amazing protein packed burger that is not deep fried and is freshly made. Besides, options like veggies with feta cheese or humus sauce can be a great substitute for those calorie-pack fries. Another favorite is sushi, it is delicious and very affordable, just don't bathe your roll on soy sauce because the sodium can keep you bloated and dehydrated. You can have delicious edamame as an appetizers or even the stuffed jalapenos in moderation. And of course, once in a while enjoy your burger, even with the animal-style fries! It is good for your cravings and your sanity.
