Dining Out on a Diet: Choose Smart FoodsD ining out at a restaurant

is a treat for many people in this country, while for oth-

ers it has become a way of life. in a time-crunched society, restaurant-prepared and commercially offered foods offer convenience for people who simply are not cooking at home. However, with larger portion sizes and a greater amount of sodium and fat, among other downsides, eating out poses challenges for those watch-ing their weight.

Consider these eye-openers regard-ing favorite foods at national restau-rant chains and popular eateries:

• A restaurant-sized order of the Italian dish fettucini alfredo weighs in at 1,500 calories and 97 grams of fat. almost half of the fat is saturated.

• A typical order of fried rice from a Chinese food take-out adds up to 1,480 calories.

• Choosing a Caesar Side Salad from Boston Market dishes up more calories than other seemingly diet-distasterous sides on their menu, such as old-Fashioned Potato salad or Creamed spinach.

• Contrary to popular belief, select-ing a cheeseburger from McDonald's is a better option than the Chicken Mcgrill. the burger has 330 calories versus the chicken sandwich's 410.

• When dining out at chain steak-houses, you'll want to pass on those batter-dipped fried onion appetizers. Most rank in around 2,130 calories and 163 grams of fat. When choosing a cut of steak, opt for the filet mignon, which is the leanest.

• Shakes at the majority of the fast-food eateries, including White Castle, McDonalds, Burger King, and Hardees, to name a few, are typically 1,000 calo-ries or more.

While it may seem it would be impossible to dine out and avoid destroying diet plans, there are tech-niques to consider that can keep you on track.

1. Make friends with broiled, boiled, or roasted foods. these are some of the healthiest ways to have foods prepared if you're calorie-conscious. ask that oils be used sparingly if not removed completely. simply dabbing meats that look like they may be a little bit more greasy than you would like with a napkin can also trim off a couple of unnecessary calories.

2. Fill up on the good stuff.skip the unending bread basket and opt for picking on raw vegetables, if possible. ask to have a side salad (low-fat dress-ing on the side) brought when others are enjoying more fattening appetiz-ers, so hunger pangs won't tempt you to indulge in something naughty.

3. Don't be a member of the clean-plate club. Your parents may have imbed-ded the idea in your brain you that you must finish all of the food on your plate before you can get up from the table, but that rule no longer applies. restaurant portion sizes can be triple the recommended amount. For exam-

ple, a 3-ounce piece of meat is portion size, and is roughly the size of the palm of your hand. ask for a carry-out con-tainer and immediately cut your food in half and pack away the excess.

4. order from the kids' menu, if pos-sible. see if you can order that smaller-sized kids' portion, which is actually more aligned with the amount of food you should be eating. if not, a lower-fat appetizer and a salad may do the trick.

5. skimp on dips and dressings. Many condiments can add unwanted calories. Case in point, that creamy Caesar salad dressing can knock out any inherent healthy aspects of the remainder of the salad. Don't be afraid to ask for substitu-tions, or simply ask to have dressings put on the side so you can decide if it's worth taking the plunge.

6. eat a little before heading to the res-taurant. if you know you tend to over-indulge at restaurants, fill up on low-fat snacks before you leave. Drink a tall glass of water and enjoy a cup of low-calorie grapes or some other fruit. You won't be famished upon entering the restaurant, and hopefully not tempted to order one of everything on the menu.

7. select sit-downs over buffets. the enor-mity of a buffet spread can make selecting healthy options -- and keeping portion sizes in check -- next to impossible.

8. Make selections from the "fit," "light," or "sensible solutions" portion of the menu. some restaurants understand the public's desire to eat right. they'll pro-vide a selection of foods that are healthy and often delicious. so why not give them a try? and if you see something on the regular menu that you would like, find out if the kitchen can prepare it in a more healthy way. For example, see if the fried chicken strips in the chicken salad can be substituted with grilled chicken.

9. Make dining out a treat not an every day occurrence. Dining out can fit into a sensible eating plan when done in moderation -- just like everything else about dieting. n

Fat-laded lasagna may not be the best choice at your favorite Italian restaurant. Choose Pasta Primavera instead.
