D is not for deprivation


One of the biggest downfalls to any diet is people thinking they've got to stay in and can't ever go out because they're not allowed to eat. It's not true. You could go and eat out every night of the week if you wanted just as long as you choose right.
Obviously, yes, you have to have the will power to say no to bread and oil, desserts and a bottle of wine but is that really such a hardship compared to thinking you've got to sit in front of the TV?
In Brighton & Hove there are so many options of where to eat but the same is true of anywhere. At The Chilli Pickle, an Indian restaurant in Meeting House Lane, choose Tandoori Fish with a pomegranate and onion salad for instance. And that's an Indian restaurant somewhere that most people think they can't possibly eat.
Let me know where else you think is good...my list includes
The Ginger Pig on Sackville road - just ask them to serve the fish with a salad and grilled with no sauce for instance.
The Giggling Squid, a new Thai on Church Road. Opt for the fresh chilli fish salads
Murasaki, sushi in Seven Dials (go for sashimi)
it's a life that you're living so forget the whole, 'I'm living on a leaf' mentality.
