This study describes restaurant-eating behaviors for nonpurge binge-eating women in comparison to dieters. Restaurant-eating behaviors were determined from a content analysis of 14-day food diaries using a convenience sample of 71 women who reported binging without purging and 46 dieters without a recent binge history. Comparing bingers to dieters, there were no significant differences in frequency of eating out, dessert consumption at restaurants, or fast food eating. Bingers more often perceived restaurant eating to be uncontrolled and excessive. Both bingers and dieters consumed significantly more calories (226-253 kcal) and fat (10.4-16.0 gm) on restaurant days. Extra calories consumed on restaurant-eating days may contribute to weight gain over time, especially with frequent restaurant eating. Restaurants may present a high-risk food environment for bingers and dieters, contributing to loss of control and excess consumption.

In the United States, racial and ethnic minorities and those with lower incomes consistently exhibit lower dietary quality. Independently-owned restaurants are a common prepared food source in minority low-income communities, but there are significant knowledge gaps on how to work with these restaurants to offer healthy food, due to underlying and dynamic complexities associated with providing healthy food options.

This report introduces a novel approach to providing nutritional guidance for people dining out, utilizing takeout meals as a practical tool. The method comprises several essential steps: 1) Preparing takeout versions of restaurant dishes and bringing them to the hospital, 2) performing comprehensive nutritional evaluations of these meals and adjusting them as necessary to meet specific dietary needs, and 3) assessing the impact of these modified meals on post-meal blood glucose levels. This assessment is achieved through continuous blood glucose monitoring at crucial time points: before the meal, 60 minutes after beginning the meal, and 120 minutes after eating.
