So, i stopped at Chickfil-A yesterday on the way to my old daughters Physical Therapy session. Now, I normally regard Chickfil-A as healthy, compared to all of the other fast food chains. I got a number 3, which is the spicy chicken sandwich and the waffle fries. Color me flabbergasted when I put them into the food tracker this morning and found out it was almost 800 calories!!! Holy crap was I shocked. Guess I need to pay more attention the calorie labels or something.

    Yeah - fast food in general is no good. I do have a few things that I consider "stand-by's" when in a pinch.

    We have a sub chain up here called Jimmy Johns...I get their #4 (Turkey) with no mayo or cheese and then add mustard and hot peppers and the whole sub is only 335 calories.

    The other one that isn't too bad is Arby's French Dip and Swiss....it's only 450 calories.

    Fries - not good. Small/Value size fries are typically 220-260 calories depending on the place.
