Literally just get used to ordering salads (as long as they don’t sound totally shit).
So often you realise it’s just as satisfying having a salad and it’s further satisfying because you feel good for making a healthy choice. These little challenges and successes actually make a big difference in my experience.

This can be hard when travelling with work. Like I say at lunch is often easy but if you are taking clients, colleagues or teams out for dinner/drinks then ordering a salad without at least feeling silly can be tough. Add on the drinking element of lots of these and I understand it. Food cooked out is also often made with more oil/butter and in the states even a salad isn’t really a healthy choice all the time!

I wish I could see salads as being as satisfying as pretty much anything else on a menu, but I just don't. I do know what you mean, especially the satisfaction of good decisions, but salads are more of a head decision than heart (stomach) decision. Easy to stick to when rested and relaxed, less so after a day's work & travel.

Question - how do you manage your eating when not at home? I'm travelling a lot for work at the moment, and finding it hard to keep on the wagon when I don't have the option of cooking for myself. Ordering salads at a restaurant feels wrong somehow.
