I have been doing quite a lot of cooking lately in bid to eat more healthy at home.  Since being on the healthy eating challenge  I’ve been experimenting with different types of foods which are both yummy and healthy.

When I am out I too gravitate towards ordering salads and request that they put the sauce on the side so that I can avoid taking in all the hidden sugars that normally come with the mayo or other dressings that they have for  salads.

If we are dining out at a Japanese restaurant for dinner I would order  just the dish without noodles or rice to accompany it.  I’m  currently on a LCHF (Low Carb High Fat) diet and have been cutting off sugars and wheat products in my diet.

I find that I am doing much better in my weight lost management as compared to the previous months after switching to LCHF. The weight has finally started slipping off.  (Even though it would certainly be better if the weight came off much faster!!)

Nowadays when I eat out I’ll pass the mash potato to Doggie boy to eat as he loves eating mash as it is too high carb for me.

What have you been having for dinner?
