Healthy Food

Last week we did a little something different – we wanted to get a little more personal with the question:

Why do you eat out healthy?

We were blown away by your answers!  All the reasons you look for healthier choices at restaurants when you go out to eat, big and small, are inspiring.  We would like to THANK YOU for participating by sharing your “Why’s.”  Below are just a few of the reasons Healthy Dining fans choose to eat healthy at restaurants.  

“I eat out healthy for the same reason I eat in healthy – I feel better, think better, sleep better and live better when I have fueled my body properly” – Jeanne

“I eat healthy so that I can enjoy my family for as long as possible.” – Colette

“I enjoy trying new healthy versions of my favorites when I dine out. If I like something, then I try to duplicate the recipe at home.” – Donna

“We eat out healthy so we can enjoy our food, maintain our health and set a good example for our son! Why eat any other way when you have great choices!” – Katey

“I eat out healthy to lose weight and protect my new lungs (i’m a dbl lung transplant recipient)” – Jerry

“I eat out healthy because I’m worth it! I have lost 49 lbs since January 2013, and it would not happen without healthy eating!” – Cranedm

“Because we do eat out a lot, my husband and I both try to eat as healthy as possible. He is a type2 diabetic, with HBP, and kidney issues so sodium and the glycemic index are important. I am on a weight loss program and have restricted calories. It is great that so many places are now posting the caloric intake.” – Jan

“My husband and I eat out healthy whenever possible because I have had heart surgery, so eating healthier is the way we go… I just recently got another stent put in and am following a strict diet to lose the weight I gained since I had my heart attack four years ago, so I plan stay on a healthier diet from now on.” – Stacey
