 | | 3 / 9 3. Be menu-savvy
Scrutinizing the menu can help you make healthier choices. For instance, look out for keywords that give clues to how the food is cooked. "Scan the menu for dishes that are steamed, poached, grilled, stir-fried without heavy sauces added, boiled or broiled," says Susan McQuillan, M.S., R.D., author of Low-Calorie Dieting For Dummies. These are the healthier options. Skip those that are "fried", "battered", "sauted" and "based in coconut milk".
