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.

        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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
