Meal out !

[Aly36]

Tonight is my last night at college ( im retraining to be a counsellor ) and we're going out for an italian! Think I might just eat fruit all day and try to pick healthy choice tonight !

Any one any ideas for what to eat today & tonight please

I think it's a good idea to be careful beforehand but don't get too hungry! I love Italian food, and would rather have a smaller portion than skip the cheese/cream 😜 One tip I heard was only have two things- a starter and main, or main and dessert, or main and wine. Just a thought. But if you have stuck to plan all week one night will not ruin everything! Enjoy 😊

Hi Anna

Thanks for that . Been good all week and very rarely go out. I don't drink so that's a bonus 👍

Will try make a heathy choice but Gonna enjoy myself n get back on in the morning . Had weetabix strawbs / banana for breakfast so will keep it low till tonight.

Help muchly appreciated 😝

Hi Alyson,

Have a look at the information in Week 5 of the NHS 12 week plan, as it is specifically about Dining Out:

Enjoy your meal tonight!

You must tell us how your meal went - did you make some good choices and did you enjoy it?

I will it's a new italian near where I live . Pasta dishes can be calorific though so I ll look n try choose wisely but tbh it's nice to go out with good group of people after we have studied for a year together.

Tommorow I shall let you know . 🍝🍕🍰

Great, have a really lovely time!

Enjoy yourself - try not to go for all three courses and stay away from the bread basket!

I survived I just had a main meal no starter or pud! And I had a diet coke. I had spag Bol no garlic bread and had a brilliant night

It's about good chatting with good people and enjoying yourself and you can do it without the cheesecake ! ( I do love a cheesecake though lol )
