Take your time and enjoy your food, using lunch as a time of rejuvenation and relaxation. Remember to keep balance and moderation as your mantra.

On the theme of fast food eating. My daughter wanted to go to Wendy's. I had a grilled chicken sandwich, side salad and diet coke. Yeah!! Until she didn't eat all of her nuggets. I then had 5 chicken nuggets and say about 15 french fries. Came right home and logged everything. I only went over by 4 calories!! I was pleased. I won't do it again, but it was reassuring that I could have some of the old faves sometimes without hurting myself.

(Homer Simpson) MMmmm....Subway....

Everytime I go there, I get a 6 inch chicken breast on wheat with lettuce, tomato, onion, carrots, and the pepper relish...so spicy and yummy! At Wendy's/Chik Fil A I get the grilled chicken sandwich, no mayo/cheese. I really don't find it difficult to get something healthy while I'm out...I just make sure it's chicken, it's not fried, and there's no mayo/cheese, and with salads I get vinaigrette and use just 1/4 of the packet.
