Theres no such thing as a free lunch so the saying goes. Whilst not the original meaning of the phrase it is true when thinking about weight loss. Remember, everything you eat contains calories and at many places where the food is free, such as a working lunch or youre at an event with food provided you might be sorely tempted to eat a larger portion than you would have done if youd had to cook it yourself. Thats fine so long as you remember thesekinds of food with sauces etc. tend to have a higher calorie and fat content so you could be eating the equivalent of two meals in one meaning youll have to restrict your calorie intake at the next meal or exercise twice or three times more to counter the increased calories. This is why there is no such thing as a free lunch!
