Eat this, Not that

While we were out the other night we picked up the latest copy of "Eat this, Not that". It's a very interesting read, and really makes you conscious of what you are eating. Things at restaurants are not always what they seem. I was shocked to read that my favorite salad from Outback registered in at over 1200 calories, and that's without the dressing! The good news is the book also give tips and tricks to shave off calories from those high fat and calorie meals. For instance, ordering your burrito sans the tortilla is a quick way to cut the calories by about 200 and the fat by as much as 7g. They also target grocery stores and point out the healthier options to many pantry and fridge staples.
