    The Wendy's 10-piece nuggets fits my macros pretty well.

    Wendy's has nugz? Since when?

    For years and years now.


    And they are delicious.


    But I'd personally get the Pretzel Burger because it's da-bomb. And a small frosty.

    Pretzel Bacon Cheeseburger... has 680 cal.
    Small fry (depending on day so far) has 310 cal
    Small coke (depending on day so far) has 140 cal.

    Really depends on how much I have/will exercise and whether or not I feel like eating the rest of the day. PBCB's are heavenly.

    Broccoli and cheese baked potato
    Water

    You get your protein, veggies and carbs. I don't think it is as high as other options in sodium, which for me is a good thing to keep low.

    I usually get 10 piece nugget (shared with my one of my kids, so I eat 5) and a side of chili. I like the nuggets broken up in the chili. And diet coke or water. Under 600 calories if I recall (though it's been a while).

    I'm a low carber. Get the baconator and throw away the bun.

    I only look at pictures and numbers at drive thrus. The nugz must be in the small print. Hmmm

    I worked at Wendy's in 2004/2005 and they had them then... and they weren't new...

    Wendy's actually makes pretty good salads for a fast food place. Strawberry Fields and Berry Almond Chicken were both tasty/healthy. The only one I didn't care for was Asian Cashew - the dressing was too spicy for me and they put way too much edamame on my salad.

    If I go to Wendy's after long bike rides, I get the double with cheese, small fries, and a coke zero.

    If I go to Wendy's after lifting weights, I get 2 quarter pound double stacks, only eat 1.5, and give my kid the other half. And a coke zero. It fits my macros and calories remarkably well.

    If I go to Wendy's after a night of drinking, I get the triple, large fries, and a large frosty.

    Any of their salads except the taco salad. They're the best fast food salads out there and pretty safe on calories.
    Chili is also a healthier choice.

    I can't imagine there's anything else worthwhile unless you're in a 1000 calorie cheating mood... the LTO smoked gouda chicken is pretty good ;) and Wendy's has the best fries!

    I would order a double with just cheese, and throw the bread out. just eat the patties.

    The Ultimate Grilled Chicken Sandwich...370 calories
    Junior Chocolate Frosty...200 calories

    Why? Because those are the things I like best on the menu. Although I don't go very often maybe once a year if on the road, so have not tried many of the new sandwich's.

    I don't like their fries. I like the baked potato too but hate the "margarine" it comes with.
