You're not under
pressure to do it when the waiter is like standing right next to you, waiting for you to make a decision about whatever it is that you want.
Yeah.
Right.
And that's another thing, like showing up too hungry, you might order too much.
You know, your stomach might get ahead of your brain a little bit there.
Some other tips like sharing plates to save money or skipping drinks or even using the time of day to your advantage, like food deals tend to be a little bit cheaper during happy hours, for example.
Right.
And there are ways to do this.
So registered dietitian Amy Lawson told me that she encourages people to build their restaurant meals around protein and fiber.
Those are the things that will kind of keep you full.
And one way to do that is what she calls the balanced plate.
Half the plate is non-starchy vegetables, a quarter is protein, and a quarter is complex carbs.
And some cuisines, like Mediterranean, might make that easier than others.
And it can be hard to actually get that balance if you're ordering something like a soup or a chili where you don't really have control over that ratio, like a half to a quarter to a quarter.
Just making sure you're hitting all those categories of non-starchy vegetables, protein, and complex carbs will help you.
She says the key to making this possible, same thing with keeping track of your spending, is preparing ahead of time, reading the menu ahead of time, and then making that plan.
Right.
And also, I mean, for me, if a plate of food comes out, it's going to be hard for me to like not eat that plate of food.
But one of her tips is you can get a to-go box right when your food comes out and put half of it in the to-go box.
