Restaurants still scare me too. Only been to 1 in the past 3 weeks. Used to hit them 2-3 nights per week. Still haven’t figured how to eat at some of them. Or scared I will order something good but then pick at the kids’ leftovers. I’m terrible!

Best thing to do at a restaurant is to order what you KNOW you should eat that will satisfy you. AND get a togo box immediately! Say something like ‘your portions are just so generous here, I know I’m going to want some of this for tomorrow!’ Etc. And ask for water even if you get something else to drink. Package up the portion you aren’t going to eat. Do the same for the kids.🤷🏻‍♀️They don’t need to be garbage cans either! If they want more, fine , it’s there. If not, problem solved and no arguments and no dessert. This is the time to start teaching that if they drink the hot chocolate and/or the sugared soda they don’t have a dessert. That it’s a choice between french fries and the bun or the bread on their sandwich, preferrably not both. If they have sugary dressing or salad or potato soup (as they get older to understand this) or fruit salads or macaroni salads that they don’t really need a dessert at the same meal. 💁🏻‍♀️We went out a great deal when my kids were young because of my ill health. Mostly fast food too. But my kids actually never put on bad weight because we had these rules. And only 1 sugared soda at a meal! It equals a candy bar. They could have a second glass, or dessert, not both. Fries or bun. They could have salad in place of fries if they were hungry. Or double meat sometimes. We tried for the non-breaded chicken choices if possible as well. Or if we went to a taco bell they ate the insides and combined things into one larger wrap. 🙇🏻‍♀️Breakfast omelets were a good choice on many menus depending on the sides. Again, that packaging or throwing stuff out so you are not tempted to sit and mince. 🙋🏻
