Even the salads in restaurants have high calorie dressings. Some pizzas restaurant might have an undressed salad. See if you can find a vegetarian cafe, they might have something low cal on the menu amd they might be prepared to make their own dishes healthier by removing extras such as cheese from the recipe. It can be as false economy counting raw calories as you don't absorb all the available calories in the more fibrous foodstuffs. If you eat a baked potato it will fill you up for hours and the slow energy release with allow you to be more active for longer, burning off any extra calories consumed. If you go on a low sugar, low sat fat, low salt, low alcohol diet, the calories will take care of themselves.</blockquote>
