Restaurant Guides and Trim Healthy Mama
Just getting started with Trim Healthy Mama? Remember the rule of thumb for S meals is try to keep carbohydrates under 10grams; for E meals try to eat no more than 5 grams of fat and at least 20 grams of carbohydrates and not much over 45 grams. As a general rule the S (low carb) meals will be a little easier to manage at restaurants - just be careful of breading on meats and sugars in sauces and condiments. On occasion I do find that the Light Fare menus can fall into the E (low fat) range and usually the nutritional info is pretty readily available for these meals. Let's take a look and see how a few favorites stack up to this diet.
Jason's Deli...My very favorite!

Trim Healthy Mama is pretty much of a free styling diet. If you eat out on a very regular basis you will need to be a little stricter, but if it is just a once a week treat then just try to meet the general guidelines and stay away from the sugary condiments, desserts and be sure and bring your own sweetener to make lemonade out of lemon water or sweet tea from their unsweetened. Remember protein with every meal and the lean protein like very lean ground meat and boneless skinless chicken breast will likely be your protein for the E meals.
