On Today's episode i go over 5 tips for yourself when eating out at a restaurant. Hope you take some value away from it.
-
Choose the meal you are going to have before arriving at the restaurant. Track it on myfitnesspal then plan the rest of your daily macronutrients targets around that specific meal .
-
Save X’s amount of calories for the end of the day and just call it even, I would suggest to guess slightly over what you think it may be .
-
You could maybe skip normal snacks that you would have in the day and save the calories for a larger meal at dinner or lunch , this isn’t one of the best ones to do as it’s just a guessing game but if you aren’t aware of cals/macros it’s an suggestion .
-
Choose a whole, nutritious, healthy option on the menu containing at least 1-2 serves vegetables and a lean protein source .
-
Enjoy it!
