I love Taco Bell. I Hate Taco Bell.



Recommended Posts

Que es "Fresco"?? I have never heard of it? Exactly what does it mean, Ira? Do they have it everywhere? Does it still taste like Taco Bell??

Yes, they have it everywhere, and yes it still tastes like Taco Bell. They use chopped Tomato, cilantro, and onion, in place of the sour cream & cheese.

I think it's a great alternative.

Hey Beanie,

Since being banded, I now order a reg taco and pintos n cheese and mix them up together. Not bad! I am not quite sure how many cals, but WAY less than I used to order at Taco Hell!

You are right Rene, ignorance is bliss - that's why I chose to not read it! :)

Rene, that's why I think banded life is so great. When my last fill was new (better restriction), I could eat about 3/4 of a taco. A couple of days ago I ate 1.5 taco - compare that to pre-band 2-3 tacos, potato oles, and one of those taco shaped ice cream things.......oops, I"m getting hungry now...Celeste

well, I think this is a good thing. Now we can be informed, now we know and can make better choices, as opposed to being a victim of our food choices

I look up the nutrition on everything I can now. Sometimes I look it up after I've been to a place and regret it, lol, but I always look. Sometimes I eat at taco bell anyway, but I know what I'm doin' when I go in. There's so much I always thought "wasn't that bad", *sigh*, lol.

It's the flour tortillas that kill you.

Stay away from anything with the flour tortillas (even if they are grilled). That's why the crunchy tacos and the tostada are a better nutritional choice.

See, that's just what I mean. I have mindlessly eaten 4 or 5 items at a shot on my worst days. Since only TWO of the items I eat run almost a thousand calories - that would explain A LOT about my girlish figure.

I never would have thought that TWO items would be a thousand calories. It simply boggles the mind....

That's like when I was stopping by Sonic every other day for a blaster, OMG, blast my ash, that lil ol cup had over 900 calories. Needless to say, I don't do blasters anymore. I sure do miss them tho.

I never really liked Taco bell i just really like sour cream and cheese (on everything!).... thats terrible right? lol... I use to love Micky Ds but now its easy to avoid. but 2 night ago i caved and ate a 4piece chicken mcnugget happy meal. I cant eat bread or i feel the horrible pain in my chest so double cheese burgers are out... and more then one small bite of tortilla is chest pain too.

Ahhh all horribly fattening foods... Why do they taste so good?

Taco Bell...so being a dumb Aussie here I guess it is a place you get tacos. I make my own with lean mince salad and sauce. It healthy and low in fat. Half of those things you guys have mentioned I have never even heard of. Sounds yummy tho :)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
