Anyone else have a hard time eating healthy when they eat out?

Trying to eat healthy, but I find it hard on the weekends when we go out.

I actually love salad, but every menu has salads with goat cheese, gorgonzola, blue cheese, feta...

After I see that I can't think about just eating lettuce.

And then am I the only freak who gets paranoid about whether the lettuce was properly washed, etc.

I was a waitress all throughout college, and trust me when I say people switch up the ingredients in meals all the time. And it's honestly NOT annoying, you're a customer and you're paying for food. If you don't want cheese but want extra tomatoes, for example, just ask for it!

I love salads and I still eat all the ones with the cheese.. I am bad Chat Icon

If I am in the mood for something else I will always try to get a healthier side to go with it.. instead of fries I will go for rice or veggies etc.

although this last month I have been opting for the fries Chat Icon

For me it's always been easier to eat healthy when going out. At home I'm cooking for a teenager, a toddler and a husband who doesn't like my idea of healthy.

No, I try to eat healthy at home, so when out I will indulge a little. I will get the salads with the cheese - it ID healthier than a burger and fries, though not as healthy as just veggies lol Cheese has very good nutrients for that baby!!

At a lot of restaurants (Chilli's for example) the salads are more fat and calories then a burger!

Re: Anyone else have a hard time eating healthy when they eat out?

i dont think i eat all that healthy when we go out to dinner. I am probably doing somewhat better than i usually do when eating out since i eat only about 1/3 of whatever it is i have. I just tell myself that everything is fine in moderation and i try and balance the bad meal out with a healthy breakfast and snacks throughout the day.
