Group of People Eating Around the Table

You’ve committed to becoming healthier and transforming into the best version of yourself. While your weight loss journey is a rewarding experience, it can sometimes feel like everyone around you is having more fun. The truth is you can still participate in social events and achieve your weight loss goals.

BBQs

Whether you’re the host or an attendee, you can still enjoy summer BBQs with family and friends.

Sip Smart
BBQs are notorious for soda, sweet tea, and lemonade — but they’re packed with sugar and calories. Ditch the unhealthy beverages and opt for flavored seltzer water, or make your own mocktail instead.

Whip Up a Healthy Dish
Volunteer to bring an RM-approved dish, such as kabobs, to enjoy at the bash. You can also offer to prepare a side like coleslaw or a crunchy pickle salad to round out the meal.

More Protein, Please!
Chicken, shrimp, and scallops are excellent sources of lean protein and don’t contain as much fat as hamburgers or hot dogs.

Restaurants

Menus can be intimidating, especially when you’re trying to implement healthy lifestyle changes. Follow these simple tricks to keep in mind the next time you dine out.

Plan Your Plate
Did you know you’re more likely to make unhealthy choices when hungry? Look at the menu online and select a steamed, grilled, or roasted dish. These have fewer calories and fat than pan-fried, crispy, or sautéed items.

Ditch the Bread
Ask your server to avoid bringing any bread, chips, or other pre-meal items to the table. It can be tempting to mindlessly “graze” when the basket is sitting right in front of you. Instead, start your meal with a salad.

Ask for a To-Go Box
Most restaurant portion sizes are enough to feed two people (or more). When your meal arrives, ask for a takeout box and portion out your food before digging in. This will help prevent over-eating.

Vacation

Vacation is a time to escape the stress of everyday life. However, you don’t have to sacrifice your diet to enjoy your getaway.

Optimize Your Mini Fridge
Buy ready-to-eat items at the grocery store, such as hard-boiled eggs, rotisserie chicken, and deli meat, and store them in the fridge. You can also prepare your own meals in advance and bring them on vacation with you.

Don’t Forget Your Athletic Kicks
Make a pair of athletic footwear one of the first things you pack. This will remind you to get out and move your body. They will also keep you from opting out of unplanned events like hikes or other outdoor adventures that will get you moving.

Pack Healthy Travel Snacks
Most airline meals and snack boxes are sky-high in calories and full of processed food with a long list of artificial ingredients. Eat healthy on travel day by packing healthy snacks ahead of time. This will help you with portion control and temptation.
