Do you want to try out that restaurant but you’re on a diet and you don’t want to feel guilty eating those mouth watering dishes? You shouldn’t worry – there are plenty of options that you can take without gaining extra pounds.

These may help you in choosing delicious yet guilt-free foods from your favorite restaurants.

American Fast Foods

On the go people or those that prefer fast, convenient and relatively cheap foods – or what’s popularly known as fast foods. Fast foods are a no-no if you’re on a weight loss program. Basically, foods available are either swimming in oil, saturated with calories and grease or just plain empty carbs.

Fast foods are often served in huge serving – physically and calorie-wise. If you just can’t exist without shoving down a slize of pizza down your throat despite trying to commit on losing weight, then at least mind the portion. Eat just a tiny portion once in a blue moon just to satisfy your craving. Better yet, that plain burger can serve as your prize– you know, for sticking to your program for a certain amount of time.

Eventually, you will outgrow this craving and break your ties with fast foods.

Italian Foods

“Red always scores over white.” You should know that if you love eating in an Italian restaurant. So instead of picking a creamy carbonara topped with bacon bits, choose the seafood spaghetti. Tomato sauces are much lower in calories and fat. You can also order a tomato soup for an appetizer. This can easily fill you up causing you to eat less on the main course.

Italian foods are pack with empty carbohydrates and are quite heavy so mind the portions. Stick to one Italian meal a week to lay off on the carbs. Try to choose grilled, baked, broiled, poached, steamed or dry-sautéed items on the menu. There are less fat in these food preparations. Eat foods that are flavored with fresh herbs instead of those with butter and oil.

Mongolian Food

This is the best option for health conscious people. The food preparation used in Mongolian dishes is commonly the casserole type or the one pot cooking where all the ingredients including meat and vegetables are cooked together.

Japanese Food

Sushi, miso soup, sashimi and kani salad are few of the favorite Japanese foods a lot of people enjoy. Japanese dishes are also good for people engaged in a healthy diet.

Thai Food

They offer spicy, low calorie and light foods topped with tasty herbs. It is also good in maintaining a healthy diet.

Chinese Food

Stir fried foods are never healthy. Chinese dishes are commonly stir fried which makes it not as healthy as the other Asian foods. But their green tea is known in keeping those fats off your system.

Filipino Food

Most Filipino foods are high on fat and calories. So instead of choosing oily and meaty delicious dishes like Pork Sinigang, Lechon, Pork Adobo and a lot more, try to order something with vegetables like Chicken Tinola, Pinakbet and lumpiang ubod. You can also substitute brown rice for white rice or just limit the white rice in one cup.

You should always keep in mind that self control is the best tool to achieve your perfect shape – from burning calories to choosing the right food and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
