Last night at dinner my son, who is trying to lose some weight, offered this advice:
Toward the end of dinner, when he is feeling not hungry anymore, he purposefully puts his napkin on the plate to signal the waiter/waitress to remove the plate. There may be some potatoes or other food sourses still left, but Brian told me that if the plate remains there, he will find himself still picking at the remnanst almost absentmindedly. If the plate is removed, he cannot do this.
The other issue certainly is the "dessert tray". Who truly feels any "hunger" at the end of a restaurant meal to then have a high-caloric dessert???
By removing the pre-dinner alcohol drink, the bread that is brought to the table, a high-caloric side dish and the dessert, you can save a thousand calories and still have a great time!
On a non-weight loss note: New do for your doctor!!!a 2-year old yellow lab....Tanner....VERY sweet and athletic....
