Breakfast Restaurant Recommendations for Weight Loss

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

Because meats and vegetables are not normally consumed at breakfasts, it can be difficult to stick to your diet at breakfast.

• Foods to avoid at breakfast:

• Breads

• Hash browns and other Potatoes

• Cereals (especially ones with sugars added)

• Muffins & Croissants

• Jams & Butter

• Yoghurt (especially ones with sugar added)

• Milk & Fruit Juices

The following are examples of typical breakfast foods that are allowable

Omelettes

• Ask for greens or sliced tomatoes instead of potatoes or toast

• Add vegetables: Onions, zucchini, and other green veggies are best

• Hold the cheese, or use cheese sparingly

• Egg white omelettes are not necessary, but they are certainly lower calorie choices

• Frittata

• Eggs and Style

• Cottage Cheese

• Natural, unsweetened soy milk

• Tofu

• Sliced Tomato or mixed greens can be an easy side to your eggs

• Nuts and seeds (whole or spread versions)

• No sweetened peanut butter

If you have no other alternatives:

• Unsweetened oatmeal

• You can flavour with nuts, seeds or spices

• If you need milk, then try natural soy milk or non-fat natural yoghurt

• Apples, pears, or grapefruits are okay

• Protein smoothies are okay, but most restaurant made smoothies are too sweet

Green Table

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008

Green Table is a business that helps restaurants adopt more environmentally friendly practices. I encourage you to visit their website to see which restaurants are participating, and support businesses that are taking the initiative to look out for everyone’s health.

Members are expected to do things like:

• Send their organic waste to compost

• Recycle paper, plastic, glass, metal as much as possible; use energy-efficient equipment and lighting

• Use water-saving equipment and fixtures; use recycled, biodegradable and non-toxic supplies

• Buy local and organic foods, sustainable seafood, etc.

• Support like-minded local suppliers and service providers working to ‘green’ their operations

Go to their website and support the businesses in your area that are trying to make a difference.

Salad Bar Guidelines for Weight Loss

Sunday, March 2nd, 2008

There are many salad bars available in Vancouver. For now, they are listed in their specific regions within the Weight Loss Restaurants category.

Dressings:

Bring your own or keep your own at work.

You never know what you are going to get with dressings, and many of them may have undesirable contents such as sugars, artificial flavours or colours, trans fats, or saturated fats. They also may lack unsaturated fats that your body needs to function properly.

When choosing dressings, simple is usually best. Contents like extra virgin olive oil, and other expeller pressed vegetable oils such as sesame, sunflower, borage, hemp, pumpkin or flax are best. Vinegars, fruits, and spices are all welcome ingredients. Organic ingredients are good, and they usually show that the manufacturer is making an effort to provide a healthy product.

Avoid all cream based dressings. Some creamy looking dressings can actually be okay, but you have to read the label carefully to make sure they did not use fatty animal products.

Avoid additives in your dressings that you don’t need.

Examples of additives you should try to avoid are:

• Sugar

• Trans-fats and hydrogenated vegetable oils

• Bromide or Bromine

• Sulfates and Sulfites/ Nitrates and Nitrites

• MSG

• BHA, BHT, and other contents that start with ‘Benz’

• Artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners

• Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein (HVP)

Choose the following items at your salad bar:

• Eggs (For faster results, remove the egg yolks)

• Fish (Most salad bars have tuna. Don’t have tuna more than twice per week, and don’t the ones that are already mixed with mayonnaise)

• All green leafy vegetables: Spinach, Lettuce (all), Kale, Mixed greens, Arugula

• Zucchini

• Onion

• Mushrooms

• Celery

• Cabbage

• Cauliflower

• Broccoli

• Water chestnuts

• Cucumbers

• Sprouts

• Brussel sprouts

• Pickles

• Radishes

• Parsley

• Artichoke

Higher carbohydrate vegetables (moderate quantities only):

• Tomato

• Carrot

• Peppers (all types)

• Snow peas and snap peas

• Green beans

Nuts and Seeds (use sparingly):

• Good Choices:

• Nuts – Almonds, walnuts, pecans, hazelnuts, and pistachios.

• Seeds – Pumpkin, sunflower, flax (must be ground in blender or processor)

• Soy nuts

• Less optimal choices – Macadamia, brazil, cashew, and pine.

• Cottage Cheese

• Feta Cheese (use sparingly)

• Mozzarella (use sparingly)

• Avocado

• Soybeans

• Tofu
