🥦Eating Out & What To Do🍊
Some of my favorite go to options that work best…
-Check the menu out online to make a decision before you go.
-Ordering a protein and double vegetables can often cut down on
Nearly 300-500 calories coming from starchy carbs!
-On the menu, look for food that’s steamed, grilled, roasted, poached.
-Try to order cooked without oil or butter.
-Ask for half of the meal to be packaged up to take home – instantly save 500 plus calories.
-Drink 1 glass of water before you eat anything.
-Try to get at least 2 glasses drank before you leave.
-Most meals will be 1000 minimum so just eating half will always
Keep calories within reason.
-Order first before everyone who nobody influences your choice!
-Take your time eating, be one of the last ones done.
-Ask for sauces/dressings on the side then use the dip and stab method.
-Skip the bread basket as one slice could be up to 100 calories a piece.
-Share the plate with someone.
-Avoid high calorie drinks
-If ordering a drink, swap the drink for the starchy carb.
stick to 1 and try to keep the calories low.
Alcohol and How To Maintain Weight Loss
What do you do in those “sticky situations” when sweets, treats and anything else that will throw you off your food plan arises?
– Basic facts about alcohol: Ethanol is the main type of alcohol we drink, formed from carbohydrates in grains or fruits. Alcohol provides 7 calories per gram.
– Caloric impact: Alcohol is liquid and doesn’t fill you up, making it easy to overindulge. Regular alcohol consumption can positively affect insulin sensitivity but hinders fat oxidation.
– Metabolism and storage: While alcohol itself can’t be stored as body fat, it accelerates the rate at which your body stores dietary fat. The liver processes alcohol efficiently but blocks fat oxidation.
– Enzyme and processing limits: Liver alcohol dehydrogenase limits how much alcohol the body can oxidize. A typical person processes about one drink per hour.
– Health effects: Moderate alcohol consumption may have health benefits like a strong immune system and reduced risk of certain conditions, but excessive drinking can lead to various health issues, including weight gain.
Emphasize moderation and provide practical tips for managing alcohol intake while maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Consider breaking down complex information into bite-sized, witty sentences to keep your audience’s attention.
