Restaurant chefs tend to soak their meals in deep, treacherous puddles of oil, cream, butter, and sugar—all of which are calorically dense and offer little to no nutritional benefits. By asking for your veggies and meat to be cooked dry, and leaving sauces on the side you could save loads of calories. Simple renditions like this on your order can lead to major weight loss success.
Eat This! Tip:
If you’re not already making this request when you dine out and order in, it’s time to start. Ask for your chicken and broccoli dish steamed, leaving the sauce on the side. When you order, ask for a side of fruit with your veggie-filled omelet rather than going for the oil-drenched potatoes.
