This week I discuss some tips and tricks when dining out socially with friends or family members. Cooking for yourself is ideal to optimize your health but dining out doesn't have to be an unhealthy event as long as you follow the following tips:Have a healthy snack (handful of almonds or raw veggies)  before you go out to dinnerDrink water with apple cider vinegar (helps prevent insulin spike at dinner)Ask the server to refrain from bringing bread to the table (don't get tempted :)Start your meal with a side salad or healthy soup so you will be less likely to overeat when your meal comesDrink water before and during meals (avoid sugars and empty calories of soda or alcohol)Be the 1st person to order so you are not tempted by other less healthy dishes that may be orderedAvoid fried foods, creamy sauces, and breaded itemsOrder items that are grilled, braised, steamed or pan searedAsk the server if they can cook your food in a healthier oil like olive oil, coconut oil, ghee, or tallow instead of seed oils, margarine, etcDon't be afraid to ask for healthy substitutions  (i.e. baked potato instead of fries)Hopefully these tips can help you stay on track when you are dining out!Have a great week!If you love the Get Lean Eat Clean Podcast, we’d love for you to subscribe, rate, and give a review on Apple Podcasts.
