Chick fil a grilled nuggets are "ok" ... to me ... they are greasy ... I have to dab them on a napkin first ...

I've been sticking with the 1/2 size salad at Wendy's w/grilled chicken on it ...

honestly ... I don't know why I even bother with the salad ... by the time I get the chicken eaten off the top of it ... I am full and throw the rest away ...

but that is what I've been enjoying at the drive thru!

I like Burger King's grilled chicken burger with a bit of ketchup, lettuce and pickles. The entire burger is 16g Protein 2g carbs 11g fat.

Panda express!

Steamed veggies instead of noodles or rice.

Several Protein entree options under 200 calories, and no guesswork. They post the calorie count right there on the wall.

Chick fila regular or grilled nuggets 6 piece off the kids menu. Cheap, high Protein and even the fried option only has 200 calories! Firehouse lite menu turkey cranberry or green turkey sandwich (minus most of the bread by the time I'm done. I just can't hold it). Any Jimmy Johns unwich (love the BLT). Kids taco meal at Chipolte.

Can I just add that I addicted to Lee's green Beans. I tend to keep a large in my refrigerator and add a tablespoon or two to my meals.

I just ate a tuna packet on top of a tablespoon of green Beans with a tablespoon of pimento cheese in the microwave. Instant tuna casserole.

OK, just what are Lee's green Beans, and what am I missing in my life because I've never heard of them?

Dunkin donut egg & cheese wake up wrap. I peel back half the tortilla, but it's pretty much just a single egg with cheese. That and a cup of coffee and I am good to go.

Lee's Famous Recipe is a southern fried chicken fast food chain restaurant. I love their green beans because they taste home cooked and seasoned unlike green beans at other fast food chicken places.

I rarely eat out, but occasionally I will go to lunch with co-workers. I have goto options from the various places we go

Panda Express - A La Carte Small Kung Pao or the new Pacific Chili Shrimp is really good too

Chick-fil-a - Grilled nuggets, grilled sandwich w/o bun, or the new grilled spicy chicken salad is yum

Five Guys - Hamburger in a bowl with oinion, green pepper, mushrooms and a little A1

Habbit Burger - Albacore tuna Filet w/o Bun

Jimmy Johns - ask for the sub "unwhich". They will wrap the sub in lettuce. Makes 2 meals for me

El Polo Loco - One or Two piece, take the skin off with steamed broccoli

Carl's Jr - BBQ Charbroil chicken or the Santa Fe (I love the green chili on this one) w/o bun

Del Taco - 1/2 green burrito and just eat the inside or chicken soft taco no white sauce add del scorcho myself

@@Babbs be careful with Wendy's chili. Knew someone who worked there and she told me it is made with their hamburger patties chopped with lots of ketchup, mustard, and some sugar mixed in. Ketchup is so full of sugar! Sent from my SM-G925V using the BariatricPal App

That's interesting to know. I've been eating it since my surgery 19 months ago, but now I may have to skip it from now on. Thanks for the tip!
True, I worked at Wendy's when I was a teen and we used left over burger meat. I don't remember adding ketchup, mustard, etc. But who knows know a days.

      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.
