Fast food

[Dropdeadkim 12]

If you eat fast food where do you usually go?
I recently went to Popeyes and I had just one piece of chicken. I tried my best to rip off the breaded pieces but sometimes I’m on the go and forget my lunch or just didn’t meal prep so I need some food ideas. Btw I’m about to be 6 weeks post op.

Eat grilled chicken if possible. I would of ate the mashed potatoes. Smooth easy to chew. I tried fried chicken but it made me feel horrible. Try Whataburger grilled chicken salad... Wendy’s also has salads

McDonald's has egg McMuffins all day. I order it with no cheese, then just eat the egg and ham.

I like Wendy's- I get a small chili (no cheese, crackers, or sour cream) or I get a half berry salad. I also go to Subway sometimes and I get a salad there.

Panera all day. Tons of fresh healthy salads.

Wendy's chili. Nutritionist said this was a great choice when you have to do fast food.

Pretty sure you can get a Protein Shake or bar from most 711s gas stations convience stores etc. Jerkeys stuff like that as well.

Honestly planning ahead and having some emergency Snacks is what you should be doing (it's early for nuts, but that's a great option)

Getting involved with fast food long term isn't a good idea, even if there's some okayyy ish options they offer

7-11's also have hard boiled eggs and chicken skewers.

There are plenty of good fast food options. If I'm going someplace I just look up their nutritional info menu, so I know I'm making good choices.

I learned a new phrase recently, "Rescue Foods" these are healthy foods/snacks you keep handy in case you need something away from home. Like my American Express card, I never leave home without it.

I think having a strategy for fast food is smart. Life doesn't always go according to plan, so you maybe starving, or rushed, or traveling, or out with others, and need to eat. Or you may just be sick of Jerky and nuts. For whatever reason at some point, most people will end up at a fast food restaurant. It's better to be prepared for it, than be caught not knowing what you should order.

There are better than "okayyy ish" options available. there are actually, smart, good and healthy choices.

I really don’t eat fast food much anymore I’ve had a couple of sliders at Arby’s and they’re pretty good. And that’s about it for me.I really don’t eat fast food much anymore I’ve had a couple of sliders at Arby’s and they’re pretty good. And that’s about it for me.

I don’t really like fast food and obviously I don’t have a big appetite nor do I want to eat fast food. But just in case I come into that trouble.
