Worst Food in America



Recommended Posts

Its amazing how deceiving the menus can be - "Fish tacos", I don't order them, but I know people who do and thinks its healthy because its "fish".

What an eye opener.

I must live a really sheltered life. I've never even heard of these places or their food! Eye-opening, nonetheless

I was SHOCKED by the Aussie Fries too..... 4 or 5 of us will split them before our meal... that is a HUGE appetizer! Won't eat that again!

Holy Cow said the Bovine Priest!!! Those are some shocking numbers, and I now see the main contributer (other than myself) for my weight gain. Chili's, which was my favorite restaurant for years, was killing me!! :) I am shocked by how high some of those fat content numbers are!

My sister-in-law thought she was getting a "healthy" burger at Ruby Tuesdays by ordering the turkey burger--what a hoot!

Wish they printed them on the menu for people--and they wonder WHY we are an obese society! :rolleyes

Wow, I love the Ruby Tuesday turkey burgers. I don't think I get the Bella burger, but still. I usually skip the bread, but it sounds like I need to skip the burger!!

Wow @ the Chipotle chicken Crispers.

Holy crap! What's sad is I've eaten several of the things on that list, THINKING it was a healthier choice. Wow! I love the taco salads at On the Border, that's depressing!

That's really not a bad idea, McDonalds does that now, why shouldn't ALL of the restaurants have to do that?

I look at Weight Loss Programs - Nutrition Facts - Fast Foods and Restaurants - DietFacts.com before going somewhere. I learned a while ago, things have SO many hidden calories, it's disgusting.. and no wonder America is so obese :)

I use to get Chili's chicken fingers.. then found out from diet facts how many calories were in it, and I was horrified.. so yeah, always check it out before you go!!

My favorite meal at Outback has over 6000 calories!!!!! One of my favorite restaurants too. I used to order either a Fosters or a Wallaby Darned, blooming onion to share, Outback special steak, add 3 coconut shrimp, jacket potato and salad with blue cheese. Even skipping dessert it's over 6000! I can't believe I used to eat this way normally and wonder why I was fat!

        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
