Eating Chik-fil-A for lunch

Enjoying the original chicken sandwich and a bottle of water. No fries or sauces today! I have to say, now that I'm using MFP correctly it reminds me a lot of weight watchers. Enjoying our fast food filled world isn't a sin, it just shouldn't be a common practice.

Do you have any favorite "bad foods" that you enjoy now and then?

    OMG, I LOVE Cick-fil-As! Don't have them near where I live, though, so I only get to have them on road trips. Last one was a year ago, bit I can almost taste it. I don't care if these are bad for you or not, they are worth every calorie-filled mouthful!

    I love sushi too, and desserts! Haven't had either in quite some time. Since Christmas. Still not having dessert, but maybe a sushi trip is in order for my next cheat meal.....

    I love Chic-fil-A !!
    Another favorite is Carl's Jr. I actually like the turkey burgers more than the regular beef ones. I just wish their fries weren't so delicious but I haven't had any in weeks.

    I actually had mine today for lunch...the pub calls them "brewhouse fries"...cracked pepper fries with cheese & bacon pieces then drizzled with BBQ sauce....I ordered the 1/2 size and only ate 1/2 of them :P !!! I am finally learning the portion control thing...it just isn't worth getting stuffed with junk then trying to work it all off! MODERATION is my new key! LOL I got to have the goodies and now I don't feel guilty about it either!

    Who doesn't love Chik-fil-A? It's awesome. I found some pizza that isn't too bad calorie-wise.
    Domino's - Artisan Pizza - Chicken & Bacon Carbonara is only about 150 / slice.

    I get the 6 nugget kids meal and it's 280 cals I think - I know it's under 300 and might be closer to 200. It's just enough :-)

    Sushi isn't necessarily bad, it just depends on what it is. One of my favorite rolls is so bad but so good - it's a fried shrimp roll with rare filet Mignon on top with the spicy sauce (read: mayo) - it's called a Power Roll. I was surprised that Kani salad was pretty healthy. Negiri and especially Sashimi are pretty good for you. But that roll ... ::drool::

    oh gosh... that original chicken sandwich is so greasy and delicious.
    i used to eat it with coleslaw, fries, and polynesian sauce.
    something magical happens when they put those pickles on there.

    A glass or two of wine is generally my indulgence. Or going out to brunch with friends.

    I don't eat junk food at all anymore (unless I have no other option) because I always feel guilty and can't enjoy it. I'm a pretty good cook though so I still eat tasty food pretty regularly.

    I didn't think there were any Chik-fil-A places even that close to us here in SF. Where is it, out of curiosity?

    Pizza, pizza, and pizza. Did I say pizza?

    Lol, I am treating myself this weekend to my favorite place, eight inch pepperoni w/ extra cheese (gots to have lots o cheese!!) Imma count like 900 for it and divide it between lunch and dinner. Soooo worth it. I'll just throw in some apples and such for my remaining calories.

    Not really...I don't crave fast food like I once did....then again, we don't have Chik-fil-A here in Michigan, so maybe that's just too good to give up...:ohwell:
