Day 6: Where I Eat Out Without Wrecking Diet

Let’s be real—eating at home is easier when you’re doing keto. You’re in full control of what goes on the plate, how it’s cooked, and what oils are used. But life doesn’t stop for your meal prep. And sometimes you just want to go out and eat like a normal person without throwing your hormones into chaos.

Good news?

You don’t have to stay home forever. I’ve found a few restaurant types that make it way easier to stay keto (without being “that girl” at the table):

1. Grill or Steakhouse-Style Restaurants

These are my go-to for simple, satisfying meals. I order grilled meat (steak, salmon, chicken), ask for butter or olive oil on the side, and swap starchy sides for veggies or salad. No awkward carb math, no stress.

2. Korean or Japanese BBQ Joints

3. Brunch Cafés or All-Day Breakfast Spots

4. Salad Bars or Build-Your-Bowl Places

Eating out doesn’t have to mean eating wrong. You just need a plan—and a short list of go-to spots. These places have made my Keto journey way more livable, without sacrificing results or social time.
