Chick Fil A Saved The Day!!!

[Missy05.29.12 13]

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 driving to Georgia on Saturday and my daughter is sure to make me stop at Chick Fil A- it's her favorite, Thank you for posting this, now I know what I'll order.

Sounds like a good option if u need to stop

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.
