    Fast food eating tip: Look up the nutritional information online and order things that will fit into you calories and/or macros for the day, buy it eat it.

    Yeah I do this (hooray for baconator day!). Sometimes it involves standing at the entrance to the fast food place while looking up their menu online and deciding what I can fit in. Fast food places are actually great in a sense because all their info is available, and you can actually be fairly confident that the process is the same every time, much more so than in a sit down restaurant.

    This is why I love public wi-fi at places like this :p

    This! OP a salad is no good to me if I still need to fill 20g protein, 90g carbs and 40g fat.

    If all else fails I get the kids meal and skip the fries. Usually nuggets.

    If not, wendys small chili, a jr deluxe and a diet coke is less than 500 calories

    Grilled chicken instead of battered and fried.
    Salad instead of fries.
    Most of the fast food places have good salads. Wendy's are hearty; the half salad is plenty.
    Dressing on the side.
    Burgers no cheese/no bacon, eat only half the bun.
