It is difficult. Many restaurants now have nutritional information you can look up before you go. There are things you can do when you eat out. Start with a side salad and have dressing on the side (light dressing is better). Look for "lighter" items on the menu (grilled is good). Order your food with no butter, extra oils etc. Sometimes I get a box at the beginning and put half in the box right away. Sometimes my husband and I split an order because they are so big. Drink plenty of water, because restaurant food has tons of sodium. Getting some exercise in the day you are going to eat out can also help.

Thank you Suzi, unfortunetly I live in Ireland, Our portions are a lot smaller to begin with, I only had a sandwich and tried to make it as healthy as possible! Its the not knowing how may calories it was that kills me. I always have just water with it, I dont eat the little pasta salad they serve with it either. Btw NONE of the restaurants here have nutritional imformation displayed, except maybe McDonalds..even then there is no McDonalds near me, not that I would ever eat that kind of food. :) thanks for commenting
