Fast Food Choices?



Recommended Posts

I try to avoid fast food as I too feel it was my downfall! But, I love Starbucks skinny hazelnut lattes with a scoop of Protein Powder added. My band is tight in the morning and this gets me my Protein rather than having a shake.< /p>

I luv luv luv Jimmy John's unwhiches! Ditch the mayo & it's very easy to get one less than 300 cal. Otherwise I have become a kids meal kind of person :) The other day I ordered a regular size meal & couldn't more than half.

Low carbs are good (i guess)...but the cheeseburger has a whole heap of fat... i'd say stay away from hamburger meat...

+1 on the small chili from wendy's or maybe a grilled chicken salad (minus most of leafy greens)

As I said...depends on what WOE you follow. If you're eating high carb (anything over 60gm), then you do have to watch the fat. It's not an issue if you're doing low carb...within reason. My diet is 60% fat and less than 30gm of carbs per day. My last lipid profile finally convinced my doctor that a high fat, low carb diet was healthy.

Curious why you'd suggest a grilled chicken salad minus 'most' of the leafy greens? I regularly have a large salad for lunch every day. It's low carb, low calorie and full of nutritional benefits.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
