Does anyone on 810 struggle eating out or having takeaways? I'm away from home this weekend and was out for a meal last night. I opted for Chipotle Prawn Skewers (2 portions) and a side salad which I didn't think would be too bad and bring me out of Ketosis. Unfortunately when the salad came out it was clearly dressed (I was probably naive in assuming it wouldn't be as it didn't state that it was on the menu) and I was so hungry I really couldn't be bothered to go back to the busy bar to re-order! I had the prawns (was initially concerned about the marinade but it had been used purely for flavouring and did not coat the prawns) and I just removed the top parts of the salad and tried to have the bit underneath where the dressing was still present but may have been a little less.
Today we had an Indian takeaway and I had chicken tikka pieces (grilled) and a salad. I'm allowed yoghurt so wasn't too worried about the marinade as it wasn't thick at all but am starting to think perhaps I'm being too lenient on myself by eating out so much where I don't have complete control over what goes into my mouth? I have no intention of cheating and to my knowledge I haven't so far but just wanted your opinions in case I am unwittingly cheating and bringing myself out of Ketosis and need to be super strict in all situations?!
