Eating out - some healthy tips

Eating out may be an occasional indulgence or for some, a regular thing. Having a few tips up your sleeve to enjoy the experience but not overindulge is important to maintaining a healthy weight. Our fitness instructors have put together their top tips on dining out.

Top tips:

1. Choose grilled or baked options
2. Ask for a smaller serve
3. Go for lean meat, chicken, fresh fish or other seafood, or a vegetable dish
4. Ask for sauces or dressings in a separate dish so you can control how much you add
5. Choose vegetables or salad over chips
6. If you really want dessert, share it with a friend

So no need to skip that invitation to dine out, the experience can be both enjoyable and healthy.
