Chick Fil A Saved The Day!!!



Recommended Posts

I was traveling today and it ended up taking longer than expected so I was not prepared and I had no time to stop to sit and eat.

I panicked...until I remembered that Chick-Fil-A now serves grilled chicken nuggets on the kids menu. I ordered 6 grilled chicken nuggets, fruit, and an unsweetened tea (for later) and it was awesome!!! The chicken probably had more salt than I would have used if i had cooked it at home, but it was still a much better choice than some other options.

Chicken = 110 calories, 2.5 grams of fat, & 20 grams of Protein

Fruit = 65 calories & 0 fat

Talking about saving the day! I could have had a major cheat situation but I avoided it!!!

Next time I will be more prepared, but this low fat, low calorie option did the trick today :-)

I am glad it is helpful! Just an FYI, I did pay the extra 57 cents to get the medium fruit, but you also have the option of apple sauce. I was very content afterwards. Not hungry and it was yummy enough to make me forget about the fries I did not buy!

If you really wanted to add more Protein you could get the 1% milk to drink. I did not because I only like milk when it is super cold and since I knew I could not drink it right away I went with the unsweetened tea that would still be good when i was ready to drink it. They also have yummy diet lemonade.

Okay...I have said enough. Gotta keep celebrating even the smallest little things...keeps me motivated.

Thanks for humoring me :)

It is always hard to know what to grab if you are out and about. I am often out in the middle of the day and trying to find an easy, healthy ,band friendly option is not easy.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
