Summarize the following:
It's difficult to eat out and have a healthy meal. Many restaurant items are carb-heavy, fat-heavy, and loaded with sodium. Avoid going out for meals during the week so you can stick to your meal plan and ensure you are only eating foods that will help you stay full and lose weight. Pack your own lunch and bring it to work to avoid eating out in the middle of the day. Prepare your meals in advance so you aren't tempted to eat out. Committing to a weight loss program for a week with a friend or partner can help you stay motivated and stick to the program, together. You are also now accountable to each other as you both work hard to lose weight for the week. Once you have experienced one week of healthy eating, focused exercising, and other lifestyle changes, you may want to consider continuing these habits. Work on maintaining your diet over the period of a month, as well as your exercise plan, and then try maintaining it.
Avoid eating out during the week. Lose weight with a friend or a partner. Maintain your eating and lifestyle habits after the week is over.
