Help! Best Fast Food Option W/ Protein?!



Recommended Posts

I am at a training that I didn't expect will go until after dinner. I am totally unprepared and there are only fast food places around. Best Protein option?!!!

I would look for as a convienience store. Odd as it sounds they usually carry a decent array of pre mixed Protein drinks and some string cheese.

Taco Bell - Pintos and cheese

Burger King - Veggie Burger -- no bun

Any place, salad...

Those are off the top of my head...

Any grilled chicken without breading (El Pollo Loco, etc.), In and Out will do a burger "Protein style" (wrapped in lettuce), 3 Entrees at Panda Express are good (Angus Steak, Peppercorn Shrimp and chicken with green beans), Subway (I get the turkey and avocado without the bread, ask for toppings and turn it into a salad) Watch the dressing.

Taco Bell pintos and cheese I suppose or maybe one taco done with the pico de gallo rather than the cheese.< /p>

Stay away from the national chains like McDonalds, Burger King, Jack in the Box, etc. Sonic pretty much bites too.

Wendy's has good chili bowls. Taco bell and Popeyes have Beans and rice...hold the rice. If only burger joints around, get a jr burger and just eat the patty.

also any place that has "naked" chicken - no skin, no batter....just chicken. I know Jack in the box has grilled chicken strips and KFC here has naked strips.

This is PRECISELY my go-to meal when I'm stuck out in town at work, etc.

Kid's meal with grilled chicken bites, fresh fruit for the side, small sugar-free lemonade. Huzzah!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
