Ginagirl 21 Posted September 6, 2013 So for the first time since surgery..I had some chicken nuggets. Got a 4 piece from McDonalds. How many nuggets can you eat like this? Silly question ..I know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dgoerlitz 96 Posted September 6, 2013 I have eaten them a couple of times since surgery. I find them to be pretty gross now, since I have been trying to eat more "natural"/"real" foods since surgery. When I am in a pinch and have no choice but fast food, I usually go to Wendy's. A small chili or a grilled chicken sandwich (minus the bun) seem to be the lesser evil of the fast food choices. 1 ppasjm reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BKLYNgal87 503 Posted September 6, 2013 How far out post-op are you? In an ideal world, none. But in the real world, in my mind, it's okay to have a treat every once in a while. I've had a fair share. But as a matter of daily practice breaded meat isn't a wise option for a high protein/low carb diet. 1 TonyaA reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoryLosesXS 154 Posted September 6, 2013 After watching a video of what is in chick nuggets....I will never eat one again. Deep fried foods are part of the reason I got overweight. No judgement though. Just sharing. I wish you perfect health! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sirbrewz 30 Posted September 19, 2013 Within the context of your daily calorie/protein/fat/carb goals, it is fine for you to eat a fast food product like that. You just would not want to make that a staple of your diet. A good substitute for chicken mcnuggets are chic-fil-a's grilled nuggets. No breading, high in Protein, very tasty. Another good snack when having to choose fast food is Fazoli's meatballs. They are a little high in fat, but also high in protein. Don't beat yourself up, just try to stay within your goals and take it one day at a time. 1 need2bthin! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
