4. Have a salad as an appetizer.
5. Order vegetables in place of French fries.
6. Request that your food is prepared with little or no butter or oil.
7. Order dressing and sauces on the side.
8. Order water, diet pop, or unsweetened tea or coffee instead of regular pop or alcoholic beverages.
9. Eat half of your meal and take the other half home or split a meal with a friend
