Healthy Menu Choices

I love food. And although I love cooking, not all of us do, and going out to eat is one of my favorite activities. But it can be really hard to go out to eat and not overeat, to not leave with your pants and belly feeling overstuffed and uncomfortable. I've been there too many times.

Eating healthy when you go out can be especially challenging because we don't always have control over where we go to eat and there aren't always readily healthy options on the menu. It can take some creativity and talking with the waiter, but hopefully he or she's cute.

Here is one of my favorite videos featuring my mentor, health and business coach Carey Peters (who led the Holistic MBA Live conference I just attended in NY!).

The bottom line - do the best you can and then give yourself permission to do what you are really there to do - have fun and focus on the conversation and the people you are there with.
