What To Do When There's Only Fast Food

It's a hectic day - you've raced out the door in the morning without preparing anything to eat.  You're on the road and need to stop quick for a meal and there's nothing but fast food.  You don't have any meal replacement bars with you.  What do you do?

There are still options you can partake in without destroying your diet.  I personally continue to eat at fast food restaurants regardless of how strict my diet is because there are sensible choices.  What are they you ask?

Here's a quick and concise list I like to use:

Restaurant/Food               (Approx) Calories   Protein   Carbs   Fat


Mcdonalds

Grilled Chicken Classic sandwich with no mayo     420.0 32.0 51.0 10.0

Grilled Chicken Caesar salad w/no dressing           220.0 30.0 12.0 0.0



Burger King

Tendergrill Chicken sandwich w/no dressing/mayo  400.0 36.0 49.0 7.0

Grilled Chicken salad w/no dressing                        220.0 30.0 12.0 0.0

Dunkin Donuts

Egg White Vege Flatbread sandwich                       290.0 11.0 39.0 9.0


 
Sure, there aren't a ton of options but when you're on the run and there isn't much available, you can still make solid nutritional choices that won't throw your diet into a tail spin.  Plus, they taste good too! Sphere: Related Content
