    I sometimes get the grilled chicken honey mustard snack wrap from McD's when I have class after work. It's not great for a full blown meal though, hence the "snack" in the name. But it tides me over until real dinner.

    In N Out protein syle cheeseburger. mMMm MMMm mmmm

    I cant figure out why they named it that anyways. It has less protein then the one with the buns. Hell just get the one with the BUNS. still yummy!

    Chicken strips at Chick-fil-a

    Market salad from Chik-fil-a. It's the one with mixed greens, chicken, berries and granola. The apple flavored dressing packs the majority of the calories but I find it's too much anyway and only use about half. It's delicious!

    Taco Bell's fresca menu is resonable - about 150 cal per taco
    Burger king whopper junior , no mayo , is only 300 cal
    KFC grilled menu isn't too bad either

    Grilled chicken club from MCD -no mayo, no bacon. I leave the swiss and its super juicy-and maybe get a parfait on the side.

    when I need something quick I order from my local thai or Chinese place, takes them about 10 mins, so good and mostly healthy, I get pad thai tofu or some kind of dish with rice noodles veggies and tofu :)

    McDonald's Southwest grilled chicken salad. very fulfilling for me but, has a lot of sodium. Think it's about 390 cals w/sauce.

    Panda Express: Double Firecracker Chicken Breast with side of Veggies.
    550 calories. 54 g protein, 20.5 g fat (4 g saturated), 40 g carbs, 11 g fiber.
    The only thing I don't like about this meal is the sodium: 2550 mg. But it's otherwise pretty healthy for "fast food".

    If they don't have the Firecracker Chicken Breast, I go with one of their other "Wok Smart" entrees.

    Just out of curiosity, what's left, after you remove all that stuff? It sounds like chicken in a bun?

    Steak tacos at Moe's or Chipotle - skip the bad stuff, double down on the pico. Not fast food, but fast enough.

    I don't eat healthy when I buy fast food. I just don't eat fast food often.

    If you're gonna do it, DO IT.

    I get a kid's meal, generally from Wendy's, if I have to eat fast food (on a road trip or whatever.) They're usually 400-500 cal without a drink (or diet drink), which is easy to fit into even quite a low-calorie diet, and there's enough food for me. It's not super nutritious but at least it's not killing my day like a fast-food salad with creamy dressing and breaded chicken and nuts and fruit can do so easily. And less bread than a Subway sandwich or similar.

    I maintain at about 1500 calories, though, so I don't have a lot of wiggle room for the calorie-dense stuff.

    I also like Hungry Howies veggi thin crust with cajun seasoning. It is under 150 cals a slice and the cajun is spicy so makes me guzzle water which helps with the sodium.
