I definitely enjoy getting served as large a porion as possible while eating out, but I also know that I'm likely to consume excess calories when served a super-sized portion. Therefore, if you are serious about losing weight, cutting calories, and already having your lunch ready for tomorrow try the following:
1. Bring in your own container and immediately upon your meal arriving try placing half or a quarter of it in your container and then get it out of sight. You can be really "cool" and bring in the Eco-Box and use it as your re-usable doggie bag. This will avoid all those styrofoam and other one-time throw away "doggie bag containers". Check out www.co2slashers.org to get your Eco-Box today.
2. If dining out with a friend or spouse try just sharing one entree. I know at some of the mexican restaurants here in Asheville, one entree will be plenty of food for two people, especially after drinking a DOS XX and eating all the free chips and salsa they start you with.
3. Try eating regularly throughout the day so your are not eating-out on an empty stomach.
That's it for now. Looking forward to welcoming home my brother Michael Felsen this weekend after his year of deployment.
