One of the most difficult parts of sticking to the diet is eating healthy when you are not at home, most of the people find is really difficult to eat healthy at a restaurant. Restaurant food is meant to look, smell and taste great, that means our taste buds dominates the nutrition required to stay in right shape. Healthy eating outside is all about making a smart selection of food.
Ahead, healthy options to help you eat healthy while eating out.

Plan Ahead

Everything you want is available online so why now check the menu before you visit the restaurant? Check the menu online, so that you can plan your order before you even step into the restaurant.

Checking the menu before also make you aware of the items restaurant is serving and if they have any healthy food option within their menu or not.

How the food is prepared

This is the most important rule that every fitness freak follows, they check the way food item is cooked. Look for the food that is steamed, grilled or roaster, these cooking techniques involves less amount of oil which lead to a lower amount of calorie consumption.

Always avoid food that is pan-fried, fried, crispy, sauteed, they usually contain more calories.

Have a Healthy Snack Before You Arrive

So its a weekend and you made a plan with friends or family before you step in the restaurant to have your meal, try to consume some healthy snack instead of going all hungry.

Being hungry may lead to overeating, but consuming something healthy can limit your consumption of food at the restaurant. My favorite choice is to have some yogurt or protein smoothie before I go out.

Practice mindful eating

It’s just like an eating meditation; being conscious of what you are eating and how much you are eating plays a big role.

People always tend to overeat when they go to resturants, but staying conscious of your eating pattern will save you from a cheat meal.

Order a Soup or a Salad to Start

This is a smart way to start your meal, order some soup and salad before you order the main course.

Soup and salad contain fewer calories and they also make you feel fuller at a faster pace. Researches have shown that soup before a meal can reduce your total calorie consumption by 20%.

Skip carbonated drinks:

They play a big role in your calorie consumption, most of the people tend to order cold drinks or sugar-sweetened drinks with their meal but that is one of the biggest reason for their bad health. Avoid these at any cost, instead, try to fill yourself with water or no-sugar lemon water.

What you are, depends on what you eat. Proteins are the basic building block that helps in overall muscle development and strength. Eating protein shakes and supplements are not enough to satisfy your body need of protein and you need to consume high protein diet that helps in achieving greater strength and body development.

Let’s talk about the easy to cook and highly nutrient dense food that can help in the overall development of the body.

Egg wrap

Egg wraps are easy to make and most satisfying food items that you can cook easily. 2 whole egg contains 16 gram of protein and other vital nutrients.

You can include other ingredients as per your required, feel free to add some chicken breast or paneer as a stuffing.

Turkey breast and veggies

This is one of my favorites, turkey is high in protein and add up some veggies and seasoning to make it a complete meal. Turkey contains 29 gram of protein per 100 grams and adding some vegetables will make the meal more nutrition dense.

Quinoa

Many people have never tried Quinoa, but its one of the nutrition dense food that you should definitely include in your meal, it’s easy to cook as well. It’s high in protein and soluble fibers that will keep your digestive tract healthy and clean.

Beef  

Needless to say, Beef is high in protein and B Vitamins that are essential for the growth and development of muscle tissues.

Consume it in a limit, it also contains a high amount of fat and cholestrol that you might not want.

Oatmeal

Oatmeal is quick to make and it is high in protein and soluble fibers that keep you fuller for a longer period of time. Oatmeal is a great vegetarian solution that works as an effective healthy meal idea.

Sweet potatoes

This is something that does not contain much protein but contains other nutrients that are very helpful in maintaining the muscle mass. A four-ounce sweet potato holds more than 100% of our everyday supply of beta-carotene, a substantial dose of iron, and full of vitamins C and E. Collectively, these nutrients work unitedly to guard your body against cellular damage of all types, especially in athletes who compete in extreme environments (such as altitude, heat, cold, or pollution).

For a couple that’s gym fanatic, here are some hard exercise workouts for you!

As a couple, bonding comes in various ways. And exercising together is one of them. When thinking hard exercise, think “cross fit”. Think “spin class”. These are exercises that will make you bond as you compete. Plus, you motivate one another. Nothing keeps people closer than a little competition. Plus you can bet while at it. When I win, I get… And make it interesting… like bedroom-wise!

So what do we have in mind?

Hard workouts for couples

CrossFit

There are a number of routine exercises designed for couples. And one thing about CrossFit is the intensity that comes with it. As a couple, you will be able to burn calories within a short period. This is not for the faint-hearted. You need to be very committed to it. And commitment is one thing that comes with relationships. Sign up for a cross fit class together.

Alternate box jump

If you are looking to strengthen your legs, then this is one of the best hard exercise workouts for you. Much as it is something you can do solo, it is perfect for a couple since you can do it alternating. Get something firm that you can jump on as you hold each other’s hands. You could also add some dumbbells to this exercise to work both the arms and legs. Settle on a stable height that is comfortable for both of you. Take turns jumping on and off in a squat position.

Spin Class

Spin class is great for couples as you can cheer each other while breaking a sweat. Imagine telling your spouse to soldier on. Plus a little competition has a way of bringing couples together. Dare each other. See who lasts the longest…

Hard exercise workouts like hook squats

One thing that makes these squats the best for couples is because a set can’t be complete until you both do it. So, solidarity is key here. There is no stopping. Squat together. Better yet, how about doing it as you alternate. Do yours I do mine as you hold each other’s hands and help each other up. That’s bonding for sure.

Every workout routine reaches a time when it needs a switch up. This is because doing the same thing over and over again can really be boring. It might even make you stop taking it seriously.

As a couple that enjoys working out together, its best to consider taking your workout routine outdoors. There are so many outdoor activities you can enjoy together. The beauty with the outdoors is that it’s more relaxing. At the same time, you get to enjoy spending time together in a different environment. This way, you kill 3 birds with one stone. You get to bond, you get your workout on and there is the scenery to enjoy.

So what should you go for? Here are some of the ideas for outdoor activities that you and your special someone can enjoy together if you just want to get out of the gym.

1. Walking or Jogging

Walking is a great way for couples to enjoy each other’s company while working out.  You can walk hand in hand as you chat and enjoy the fresh air and scenery. Plan your walking or jogging route to be through some romantic place.

Now to take it up a notch, try being competitive with one another. Do a walking race or a short sprinting race and bet on something romantic like loser gives the other person a full-body massage in the evening.

2. Switch up with a one on one volleyball or basketball game

A one on one game of volleyball is also so much fun. It’s one on one! You two are getting into shape intimately. Besides the sweating, you can increase the bonding by touching as you tackle him on the court, be a little flirtatious and laugh when you blunder.

3. Skating

Skating is a sport that can really keep a couple connected. Couples really bond over mishaps. It involves lots of laughs and some leaning on one another, holding hands… Skating is a very interdependent couple’s activity. It allows for lots of bodily contacts.  Make memories here…

4. Biking

Biking is a fun activity for couples to do together in the evenings or on weekends. As a couple, you can explore surroundings that you love together. Switch up the activity by planning a picnic date. Exercise and a date? Perfect!

Whether it is rowing, dancing, a game of tennis or hiking, what’s important is that you both enjoy the activity in order to enhance the bonding and the intimacy.
