    Go to the grocery store instead! Grab hummus and carrots or have a sandwich made at the deli with low-fat cheese and lots of veggies!

    many many places have soup that are otherwise calorie-killer restaurants. Soup from a mexican place, egg drop soup from chinese, any soup from an Indian place, regular ole vegetable soup, etc.

    I would first recommend bringing your lunch.
    2nd: getting soup to go from many of the restaurants in your city
    3rd: finding a great local place with a salad bar so you are controlling exactly what goes on it
    4th: know the fast food places within distance and the nutritional value of their menu. choose accordingly, not blindly.

    Wendy's has some salads that are good - I like the pecan, apple, chicken. The grilled chicken wrap (sweet chili) at McDonalds is good, but stay away from the fries! Chick Fil A has a good Asian salad - not too bad in calories and other macros. Most of the healthy choices at fast food are going to be salads. I think you can still get a plain baked potato at Wendys.
