Help! Best Fast Food Option W/ Protein?!



Recommended Posts

Actually the Chick-fil-a Grilled chicken Nuggets Kid's Meal is not healthy, and considered one of the worst kid's meals options out there. http://www.pcrm.org/...-food-kids-meal

Chick-fil-a Chargrilled chicken sandwich = 270 calories, 3g fat, 1,270g sodium

VS

Chick-fil-a Chicken Strips salad = 600 calories, 38g fat, 1,470g sodium

You are better off just buying a plain sandwich, and eating what you want of the chicken patty.

Get the Eat This Not That books - very interesting stuff in there, and some of it is quite shocking, and not at all what you would expect.

:-x staying quiet on the recent Chick Fil A controversy. I think if there is any chance at a convenience store, supermarket, bodega, vegetable market, you can find greek yogurt, cheese stick, muscle milk, even gerber graduates meat sticks..has to be better than any fast food.< /p>

That article is wrong. It says "Contains the same amount of cholesterol as a Big Mac." It doesn't.

Child's grilled chicken (4 piece): Big Mac

Calories: 80 550

Cholesterol: 40 mg 75

Sodium: 560 mg 1000

Fat: 1 g 29

Protein: 7 g

The six piece has 65. Still either a boldfaced lie or they "exaggerated" a LOT. I don't count cholesterol anyway. Dietary cholesterol does not equal blood cholesterol. The sodium is high, but I'm not focused on that either for a once in a while thing. The chicken patty would not be all that different.

Ack! Don't do it. Why on earth do they call it a Protein Bento Box. More like a carb, saturated fat box.

This one is very do-able if you throw out the tortilla.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
