Kourtney Kardashian, 42, reveals her trick for skipping calories when dining out

Kourtney Kardashian often dines out with her new beau Travis Barker.

But navigating a menu when on a diet came be tough, she said on her website POOSH, and it takes discipline to make smart choices as others indulge in French fries and cheeseburgers.

On Tuesday the 42-year-old TV star – who has said she is 120lbs at just 5ft1in – shared her tips for staying trim even when at some of the best restaurants like Nobu and Il Pastaio.

‘When I go to a restaurant, and if I’m really trying to be good, the hardest part is ordering the food,’ she said on her site.

‘Once it comes, you’re going to be happy with it. Even if you order vegetable soup, it’s still going to taste good once it comes. 

‘Obviously, you’d rather order the French fries and a burger, but it’s just about making the wise order, and once it arrives, you’re going to be fine,’ Kourt explained.

POOSH added, ‘If you’re out to eat, do your best to use self-control and order a healthy option off the menu.

‘You’ll feel so much better post-dinner, and you’ll most likely save money by avoiding over-ordering.’

Last week the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star shared with her Instagram followers what she drinks to keep her youthful glow.

‘First thing in the morning, before I eat or drink anything else… our Blueberry Lemon Collagen Vibes,’ she wrote. 

The Vital Proteins x POOSH mix has several ingredients.

The first listed is bovine collagen which ‘helps support skin elasticity and moisture’ and give a ‘youthful appearance’ as well as support for hair and nail strength.

Also in the mix is Vitamin C which helps promote collagen production and ‘boost glowing skin.’

Hyaluronic Acid ‘helps support skin hydration,’ she added.

That same day she discussed on POOSH what she eats in a day. 

The article begins: ‘Kourtney has gone (mostly, like 95%) vegan when it comes to her diet. From keto to intermittent fasting, she’s no stranger to adjusting her meals to live a healthier lifestyle. She’s been easing into it for the past six to seven months with no meat (and the occasional butter and honey).

‘Since she’s leaning into a plant-based diet (which she’s also passionate about given the environmental impacts that eating less meat has on the planet), we wanted to share a peek inside her daily plate.

If you’re thinking about becoming vegan, you can make the shift in small waves if that’s easier for you, it was also shared. ‘Start by replacing meat with plant-based options once a week and increase from there. Kourt admits when she first started, she couldn’t resist and had a baked crab handroll while at dinner during the first few weeks.’

It’s all about balance and finding how and when you’re comfortable with incorporating the changes into your lifestyle,’ the writer also noted.

‘From breakfast and lunch at home to eating out at one of her staple restaurants, here’s what Kourt typically eats in a day, the vegan edition,’ it was stated.

Morning options are either her signature avocado shake or banana smoothie. She subs vegan protein powders.

‘Blueberry bagel (this one is from Yeastie Boys in L.A.) smothered with peanut butter and jelly. Acai bowl (either one at home similar to this recipe or an option from one of her local spots).’

On treat days she has vegan chicken and waffles from Crossroads.

Midday snacks are Pickles and tangerines, Mind Right bars (the peanut butter flavor is her favorite).

Lunch is Zoodles (minus the turkey bacon), Sourdough bread with vegan butter and topped with pickles. Plus, a side of tangerines. Other options are plant-based tacos, vegan sushi at Nobu. ‘She likes to order crispy rice with avocado, edamame, and an avocado roll.’

Earlier this week the beauty, whose ex is Talentless designer Scott Disick, was photographed leaning on Barker when he was getting yet another tattoo – this one of a skull and some flowers. 

His new tattoo was large and dark, covering older hand tattoos that were faded.

The POOSH founder crouched down as she look on intently as if she was learning the process. 

The setting was the same as before: the power couple were seen at a wood table in a kitchen as she wore her hair down and very messy, adding a light gray tank top.

Barker, 45, had no shirt on showing his full array of tats that must be over 50 in all. The most prominent are a Cadillac logo and a boom box with a woman behind it.

He added a silver chain around his neck.
