Give me your favorite HEALTHY Fast Food(s).

I love McDonald's Southwest Grilled Chicken salad. You don't even need the dressing because the chicken is basted in a sweet cilantro lime marinade. It's a little over 300 calories and very filling! I also like the new Fruit and maple oatmeal and fruit and yogurt parfait!

These items are exactly what I order! I also like Wendys small chili poured over a plain side salad.

Run in a grocery store, grab some produce (apples, grapes, oranges, carrots) and some nuts. Take them to the express check out. Run back to your car. You got a fast meal *and* a small workout. :-)

I enjoy subway club with honey mustard, about 360 cals
Taco bueno- steak fajita taco with cheese-209 cals, without 156 cals

when in doubt....get sushi!!! it's easy to find the calories on the database, it's good for you, and lots of places are starting to sell sushi like grocery stores and air ports....

if your scared of actual RAW sushi, they have other things like veggie rolls, stuff with cooked fish or chicken, and awesome salads :flowerforyou:

This is what I began to try while on the run instead of drive throughs, although, I also found some healthier-ish frozen meals, to nuke, also.

***As far as my own addition: if you have a WHATABURGER where you are, the grilled chicken salad (w/out cheese or bacon, with half a package of dressing) works great for me, and if I've been good otherwise, I indulge in fries or a drink. A small, since everything here is Texas-sized

Starbucks has fruit, hard boiled egg, cheese and peanut butter to go...
Wendy's Apple Chicken Pecan Salad, one dressing packet, or none, and hold the cheese
Extreme Pita Small or reg Thai Chicken Pita, on WW, (regular is 444 cals and is HUGE, no cheese, tons of veggies!!)
I try and eat whole foods as much as possible on a daily basis... trying to eat as clean as possible. It doesn't work for everyone... Even these healthier options come in higher than

Those are my go to quick pinch eating out options. Or I go to grocery, grap a small veggie tray, or fruit. Honestly lately I tend to take a cooler bag with me, with a couple hard-boiled eggs, veggies, cans of tuna, Wild roots trail mix, and lots of water.

I just discovered Extreme Pita, and they have lots of lower-calorie items. I had the buffalo chicken wrap and some pita chips, and it was very good and filling (although the sodium was a bit high -- I had been doing SO good today!)

I also frequent Fuddruckers quite a bit. (HUH?) Their Napa Valley Salad is about 450 calories, and is similar to Wendy's pecan salad, but a little bigger. It comes with Garlic Toast, but I ususally exclude this so that the meal is not 650 calories. They also have a veggie burger, and some leaner meats like buffalo which are quite good. If I go for those, I skip the bun. I haven't tried their salmon yet, but it's on my list of things to try.

I used to travel alot with my position, too. It's part of the reason I got here in the first place! :blushing:

Good luck with your adventure!

Chick-Fil-A's grilled chicken and fruit salad. Yum!
