WUUB £ t Diningi Out!
Buffet-style restaurants can be a detriment to anyone trying
to watch their weight while dining out.
(MS) - With each passing year comes
the hope of meeting an entirely new set
of New Year's resolutions. One resolu
tion, however, that seems to make the
list every year is shedding extra weight.
That's due in part to the holiday season,
which seems to be as synonymous with
putting on weight as it is with putting
up holiday lights.
However, as much as some may like
to blame the holidays for the added
pounds, it's also a result of people's love
of dining out. A 2006 Zagat's survey
showed that Americans average eat
ing 3.2 meals out per week. Dining out
makes it more difficult to regulate and
stick to one's diet, which can result in
weight gain.
So what are lovers of the dining circuit
to do? It's not necessary to abandon din
ners outside the home. However, it is
wise to consider the following tips, par
ticularly if you're one of the many who
has resolved to lose weight this year.
• Order from the appetizers menu. It's
no secret portions are expanding along
with the waistlines of many people.
These days, entrees are often more than
one person can (or at least should) eat.
Appetizers often come in smeller per

(MS) - Every January 1 people are greeted with the salutation of “Happy New
Year." In fact, many stay up to wait for the clock to strike midnight to be the first to
utter the phrase. But according to ancient Babylonian tradition, the new year wasn't
always celebrated in the middle of winter. It was, rather, celebrated when the
first visible new moon crescent was present after the vernal equinox -
•* at the start of spring. The new year may have been wisely
“? celebrated then because spring is the season most
asso-dated with the rebirth of life. Through
years, the calendar became out of
T —Y sync with the sun through the result of
tamper- mg bv Roman emperors. Eventually it was
■ sorted out and the Julian calendar, under the authority of Julius
designated that January 1 was the official start of the
new calendar year, and has been ever since. Other New Year's traditions
include a symbolic baby image, which some believe also signals
rebirth, and the making of resolutions for thevear to come.

fried foods. Fried foods can be a dieter's
worst enemy. Though they taste and
often smell good, they're rarely healthy.
Fried chicken, for instance, is not some
thing dieters should consider eating.
However, chicken is a great food for the
weight conscious. Simply ask for your
chicken to be steamed, grilled, baked,
broiled; just about anything but fried.
• Avoid buffets. Particularly when
traveling around the holidays, roadside
buffets can seem like the ideal choice,
satisfying your hunger before you climb
back into the car and finish your trip.
However, these buffets are death to a
diet, as too many options can lead to
overeating. If you must do buffet, seek
out the healthiest options, such as veg
etables, broiled meat and poultry, and
salad. Skip the heavy gravies.
• Eat smaller meals, more times per day.
Many competitive bodybuilders refer to
this approach as "grazing," wherein diet
ers substitute three meals per day with
several smaller ones. This helps keep
bodybuilders energized throughout the
day and can with dieters as well. Also,
by eating smaller meals, your stomach
will slowly begin to get smaller, which is
a good thing for dieters, as they'll begin
