Tips from The Biggest Loser;

Let's face it, you're going to have to eat out some time or another while you're losing weight. It doesn't have to be a big deal. Plan ahead and take some tips from Biggest Losers.

"Request all sauces and dressings on the side, and then use them sparingly. Order nothing fried; food should be steamed or grilled only. Avoid restaurants that are 'all-you-can-eat' or are known for their large portions." — Ruben Hernandez

"Know the restaurant you're going to so you can plan what you will eat. Don't let what other people are ordering sway you or change your plans." — Ryan Benson"

I stick with the salads, always with dressing on the side. Don't feel bad about being picky. Ask the restaurant to leave off things you don't want and pick off all the other foods you know aren't good for you. Have it made your way!" — Suzy Preston"

When going out for your favorite coffee drink, be sure to request fat-free milk and no whipped cream. This will drastically cut fat and calories. Also, some coffee bars make hot beverages in smaller sizes than what's listed on the menu. Ask for an 8-ounce size, which is sometimes called 'short.'" — Rosalinda Guadarrama

"Have a low-fat, high-fiber snack (such as fruit and yogurt or raw veggies) before you go out, to avoid feeling too hungry and to prevent the temptation of overeating once you get there."
— Maurice "Mo" Walker

"When I go out for Mexican food, I order a small portion of fajitas without tortillas. I pass on the sour cream and guacamole and have chicken, lots of veggies, and fresh salsa." — Bobby Moore
