I love to eat out and use many of these tips often. Another good reference is a website I found recently www.500CalorieRestaurantMeals.com. The website has over 400 meals that are planned out by a dietitian, containing 500 calories or less, tips etc. etc. Just thought I would pass it on. You have some great tips in this article.

So I tend to try and order the lo-fat items on the menu but sometimes I do have the bread served at the beginning of the meal. Remembering that I can go easy during the week, helps me splurge just a bit if we eat out.

But since I am already there, I want to try more things from the menu. And have dessert! Greedy me. SavvyChristine - macaroons. yes. I really have to try and make them at home. Those in the picture were actually my son's special request to go to the market to have this "cookie". I never tried one myself. I think I should.

I've been dying to try them, but this week marks the second week of my gluten-free experiment, and I didn't know if they were made with flour or not. Just when a friend from France brought some over for me, too. Rats! I’m not really a dieting kind of person, but I LOVE that you showed a picture of macaroons.

I really don't like buffets, the food usually isn't that good but you pay so much that you feel like you should eat a lot to get your money's worth. I almost always feel sick after a buffet restaurant. My husband and I often split an entree and sometimes an appetizer, it saves money and is usually enough. We also rarely eat out. But I think I'll be indulging at our Sunday dinner! Great post Nurit!

I find that sharing one entree and one salad with my husband is a much better amount of food than if each of us gets an entree. Great tips!
