Fast Food After Surgery!

[jwelk 10]

Hi everyone! Tell me your eating out foods you love after your surgery! And what are some healthy choices that are out there?

Some of my faves are:

Taco bell pintos n cheese with the meat out of a taco. ( i throw away shell )

Taco bueno chicken tortilla Soup

Tried taco buenos Beans, they tasted wonderful but i think it made me dump so i cant eat those again.

Wendys chili

Chilis bar and grill chicken fajitas without tortillas. I can eat 3 slices of fajita chicken meat. We get 2 days worth of left overs lol between my husband and i.

Craving chinese food but dont know what i can get to eat :-(

But tell me your eating out faves!

At the Chinese restaurant I get the beef with broccoli or shrimp stir-fry. I put hot pepper flakes in it when I get it home, or Thai garlic chili sauce. No more General Tso's for me!

Egg drop Soup and sweet'n'sour soup are decent options at Chinese restaurants.

Oh, and if I'm in a bind and not specifically going to a fast food place for a planned treat, I usually go for some sort of grilled chicken burger and just lose the top half of the bun, then toss it before it's finished.

I like chicken egg foo young at the Chinese place. Just ask for it without the sauce.

Chinese - hot & sour Soup, moo goo gai pan, beijing chicken.

Mexican - Beans, especially thinned with salsa juice or sour cream. Chipotle bol with no rice (lasts for several meals).

McDonald's - the only thing I ever eat from that place is the fruit & yogurt parfait. If I have need to go there post-op I'll pass the fruits to DH and just eat the lowfat vanilla yogurt.

Schlotzsky's - they have awesome Soups, and good pizzas. I used to get their thai chicken pizza, eat the toppings off and then pick at the very top (saucy) part of the crust.

Chipotle and Schlotzsky's are really the only fast food places I'll eat at, I enjoy cooking too much (and knowing what's in my food).

When I'm out and about my first choice is Chipotle, I get the three soft taco meal, have one and save the other two for other meals - meat, veg, rice, Beans, salsa, cheese, guac and usually lost the corn tortilla during loss phase but usually have part of it now in maintenance. Other alternatives when available are for Panera and have a half sandwich and Soup or salad which I save for later, or go to In 'N' Out and get a Protein style (lettuce wrapped) cheeseburger which is just about the right size for a sleeve (no more double doubles though!)

I eat Wendy's chili, McDonalds fruit and yogurt parfait w/o granola. What I LOVE is Arby's roasted chicken club. It is deli roasted chicken, bacon, lettuce, Tomato, and sauce. I get it w/o the bun and half the sauce. Has 20 grams of Protein. I eat it for dinner and lunch. I can't do bread yet at all.

Mcdonalds - grilled chicken snack wrap - I get the ranch one, and I tear off a bunch of the tortilla. I sometimes get a cup of buffalo dipping sauce for it. I've done chicken nuggets before, or a cheeseburger without half the bun - blech. My least favorite place.

Qdoba - I get the kids naked burrito bowl without rice - chicken or steak, Beans, pico, salsa verde, a small dollop of sour cream, a small bit of shredded cheese - it comes with a side item. Usually I get the tortilla chips but I can only eat a couple of them. I can eat most of this but usually take a bit home along with the leftover chips.< /p>

Steak & shake - either a grilled chicken salad or a cup of chili

Taco Bell - crunchy taco supreme (I break off half the crunchy shell), chicken soft taco fresco style but with cheese - I just eat the innards and leave the tortilla.

White Castle - if I'm really craving it I'll get a couple sliders and take off part of the bun. I have to get without onion now, these upset my stomach pretty badly.
