1. Skip the mayonnaise and other sauces –they can add up to 10g of fat or more. Replace with mustard and ketchup.
2. Avoid soda or juice drinks (like Hawaiian Punch). Try diet soda or better yet, drink milk or orange juice.
3. Ask for less cheese, and choose low-fat toppings such as onions, mushrooms, green peppers, tomatoes, and other vegetables. Also, dabbing the pizza with a paper napkin will get rid of a lot of the fat from the cheese.
4. Order a salad instead of fries and choose a low-fat or fat-free dressing.
5. Avoid super-sized meals. Downsize your order to a “kids meal.”
6. Skip the cheese and bacon. Ask for some bacon bits on the side, if you must have the taste. Same for cheese. If you must have some cheese, get a tiny side cup of shredded cheese and use a pinch or two.
7. If you have a choice between grilled and breaded/fried foods, pick the grilled. At McDonalds, a Filet-O-Fish has over twice the grams of fat than a regular hamburger does.
8. Keep the salad dressing on the side. Dip your fork in before each bite, and scoop up some greens. That way you get great flavor with minimal amount of calories. You can double the calories in a main dish salad by smothering it with dressing.
9. Avoid high-fat items, such as dressing, bacon bits, and shredded cheese. They all add fat and calories. Choose lettuce and assorted vegetables to make up most of your salad. Select low-fat or fat-free salad dressings, vinegar, or lemon juice when available. Ask for the salad dressing on the side.
10. Split side dishes when eating with others. Often, only a few bites are enough to “hit the spot”.
11. Choose low-fat ice cream or ice milk for a tasty dessert. Or share a regular dessert. Avoid the pies and turnovers, and the cinnamon fried dough sticks at Taco Bell. (They’re delicious, but they’re also filled with fat and calories.)
12. Choose low-fat frozen yogurt, fruit ices, sorbets, and sherbets. A rich dessert can add fun to a well-balanced diet. But eat them only on special occasions.
13. Avoid the fish sandwich. It’s always fried, and it has more calories than a burger. In this case, fish is not a healthy choice.
14. Lose half the bun and save half the calories. Take the bottom half off, and cut the top part in half — this makes the beef or chicken patty seem twice as big as well.
15. Go to a fast-food restaurant with a friend — that way it’s easier to share. On your own, you’ll always eat the whole portion.
16. Limit your visits to fast-food restaurants to no more than twice a week. Or if you have to go more frequently, limit your fried choices to twice a week.
17. Ask the cashier for a listing of the restaurant’s nutrition facts.
