Fast Food Choices!

Everyones on the go. Always. Theres no denying it. So you cant help but go through a drive thru or grab smoothies with friends to catch up.. Believe it or not, there are easier ways to manage what you eat.. You have a right to know whats in your food, and what it can do to you. For a basic meal there certain carb/calorie guidelines some people follow.. Standard for me most my life was less than 60 carbs at a meal and less than 20 carbs at a snack. I used to count calories, but I kinda stopped that and just mainly focused on carbs. They seem to be more of an issue for me, aswell as getting in more protein. Here are some on the go suggestions for different places, that are probably better choices than other foods.. Some may surprise you. All meals are less than 60 carbs and all snacks are less than 20.

Breakfast:  Croissan’wich(any kind) and small hashbrown, and small orange juice from Burger King. Or 1 6inch breakfast omlette sandwich from subway(any kind), and milk. Or 1 bacon egg and cheese muffin, hashbrown, and small orange juice from mcdonalds.

Lunch: 1 snackbox of popcorn shrimp with cocktail sauce, 1 bowl of broccoli cheese soup, and a diet soda from long john silvers. Large popcorn chicken, Honey BBQ Sauce, and Macaroni and Cheese with water or diet soda from KFC. 1Chicken Quesadilla, or 2 crunchy supreme tacos from tacobell with diet drink or water.

Dinner: BLT Cobb  or Spicy Chicken Caesar salad and large Chili with diet drink or water from Wendy’s,  2 slices of any Pizza Hutt pizza, and diet drink or water from pizza hut. Or 1 medium beef and cheddar sandwich, and one small potato cakes with diet drink or water, from arbys.

Snacks: Grande CafĂ© Latte from starbucks. Cup of Chicken noodle, vegetable, cream of broccoli, or chili from tim hortons.  A low fat smoothie from Tropical smoothie, made with splenda! (my favorite is sunrise sunset :D) 6piece chicken rings with ketchup randh or barbeque sauce from white castle.

So I hope this helps you out a bit! You can go to resturaunts websites and a lot of times they’ll have the nutrition facts for you. If they don’t, they should. You cold send an email and request nutrition information if you want.
I got all the numbers from my carb counter book by TheCalorieKing. You can look at www.CalorieKing.com for more information.

Talk to you all later (: Bye. <3
