Going to lunch with a friend. Any thoughts? I never get the burgers, but the salads can be just as calorie and fat loaded as anything else?

They do now have a board with 500 cal optiona dn under up now. The Ultimate Grill Chicken sandwich with out the sauce is good!!0

My doc advised me to do a small chili from Wendy's. Protein to carb ratio is better than anything else. I wouldn't do any of the sandwiches b/c of the bread / mayo.0

I go there at least once a week and get the spicy chicken cesar salad but substitute a grilled filet for the spicy one and take off most of the cheese (and bring my own dressing but I know that's not an option for a lot of people).0

just had dinner last night there before heading to the store after work:
got something quick and filling:
their go wrap ( grilled chicken )
and a side salad lowfat ranch0 -
I like the Baja salad I think it's called. They put Chilli on it. It's so good and you don't need to use any dressing either. It may come with sour cream, but if it does, get it without!0

chili! skip the crackers tho0

I just ask for mustard instead of mayo and bread is fine for me in moderation.
Still, overall, I don't go to Wendys unless desparate, especially since I heard the chili is made from all the greasy left over hamburger crumbs (someone who worked there told me that - dont know if it is true, but it grossed me out).0 -
chili, chili!0

Taco Salad - omitting the sour cream for sure! Crispy strips if you're really close on meeting goals for the day. It's practically lettuce, tomato, onion, a little cheese and chili over the top.0

I'm not a big fan of pomegranite. I just bring a balsamic vinegar/sugar free maple syrup mixed together type of dressing thing. It saves a lot on calories and sodium!0 -
Yes, wherever I go out to eat I usually have grilled chicken, seafood, or a large salad depending. You can also go on the calorie king site online, if you don't have one of the calorie books and look up any of the fast food restaurants. Then you will know what is a good choice to eat. I carry that guide with me. I got it at Barnes and Nobles for 8.99. Have fun.0
