Eating with the meek one, the food snob and the meat and potatoes girl

By Annette Herrick

Periodically, I will be dining out with three of my personal training clients. This is a review of our second meal with Jen Ament (the food snob) Liz Woody (the meat and potatoes girl) and Katie Schielke (the meek one). We're on a mission to eat out at all kinds of tempting places, ones you wouldn't even consider healthy without totally blowing it.

The goal is not to be perfect, pious, or anorexic. The goal is to find ways to eat out because eating out is such a regular habit of ours.

The food snob, has lost 20 pounds and wants to lose 12 more. One of the biggest reasons she has had success is because she eats vegetables with everything.

The meat and potatoes girl has high blood pressure and enjoys comfort foods like tater tot casserole.

The meek one wants to lose 5 to 8 pounds before she starts having babies! Katie can quote all of the benefits of eating a "whole-food" diet. But when she's out with a group who's ordering burgers and hot wings she hates to make a scene and goes along with group tastes.
