    I used to work at A&W as a supervisor (FREE FOOD UGH!) I was there for 5 years and in canada we have the Grilled Chicken Delux (not sure if the USA has it, pardon me if you do :)). So I'd throw some lettuce on a plate, cut up two breast of chicken and get some dressing. Cut up tomatoes and cucumbers and red onions. :D TADA! :) WAS DELISH! Or I'd have a burger patty.. :) It's really not terrible if you don't eat fries or all the stuff that's deep fried!! :) AND DIET ROOTBEER YUM YUM YUM!

    I worked in fast food for many years I lost and gained alot just depended on my state of mind. Even when I was a manager and got free meals I would pack my lunch most of the times...but why Im posting is I found an awesome app the other day on the android market Im sure its on iphone too its called" Restaurant Nutrition" it has over a 100 common restaurants it saves time looking up the site when your on the go...MFP has a great database but some restaurant foods are hard to find quickly ...look it up its a free app =)

    Thanks for the app suggestion! :)

    I have never really worked in fast food persay but I have worked at a restaurant for 4 years and I put on about 10lbs between those years. Once I finally stopped working there, I gave up all fried foods, butters, sodas, and no longer get cheese or croutons on a salad among numerous things. It has made a significant improvment! I just look back and think "It's no wonder I gained weight"

    I took a pedometer to work. In a 6 hour shift, I walked 9812 steps. Too bad I don't know how to figure that into calories burned. But obviously that is more than if I had a job sitting in front of a computer.

    THIS IS WHY I'VE PUT ON ALMOST 30 LBS IN THE PAST YEAR!

    never again will I get a desk job... all I want to do is sit and eat.. and I don't have any walking to do.. makes me sad.

    Hey all!! I have worked at Sonic for 7 years. It is extremely hard to eat well while working because the healthiest meal is like 900 calories!!

    I work at Wendys and there many salads to chose from and they all taste great and fill you up. They also have wraps in which I eat a grilled wrap everyday for lunch!
