  • Session 10: Four Keys to Healthy Eating Out
    Session 10: Four Keys to Healthy Eating Out. 1. Plan ahead. Call ahead to ask about low-fat choices. Pick where you eat out carefully. Go somewhere that offers low-fat choices. Eat less fat and fewer calories during other meals that day . Eat a little something before you go out. Or drink a large, low-calorie beverage. Plan what to order without looking at the menu. Don't drink alcohol before eating. For parties or dinner parties: Bring something from home to share with others. 2. Ask for what you want. Be firm and friendly. Ask for the foods you want: Ask for lower-fat foods. Can foods be cooked in a different way? Don't be afraid to ask for foods that aren't on the menu. Ask for the amounts you want: Ask how much is usually served. Order salad dressing, gravy, sauces, or spreads "on the side." Ask for less cheese or no cheese. Split a main dish or dessert with someone. Order a small size (appetizer, senior citizen’s, children's size). Before or after the meal, have the amount you don't want to eat put in a container to take home. NLB Participant Handout The Four Keys to Healthy Eating Out, Page 1 How to ask for what you want. • Begin with "I", not "You." • Use a firm and friendly tone of voice that can be heard. • Look the person in the eye. • Repeat your needs until you are heard.
