    My go-to is a Chick-Fil-A grilled sandwich (320 calories) . It's a huge sandwich. I pair that with a side salad (which I usually make a home...theirs has a bit too much iceburg lettuce for me.)

    I'll have to try those Taco Bell tacos! I LOVE me some Taco Bell, but my kids turn up their noses at it (!) so I rarely get it.

    This is what I've found:

    Taco Bell: A crunchy beef taco has 170 calories per the website. Without the shell, it's only 100 calories. I get 5 tacos, dump them in a bowl (ditch the shells), put some taco sauce on and eat it like a taco salad. Each taco added without the shell is 100 calories. 5 tacos w/no shell = 500 calories.

    KFC: 2-pc grilled chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, and green beans - 455 without biscuit/634 w buscuit

    McDonald's: Artisan grilled chicken sandwich (345 or 330 plain), fruit and yogurt parfait - 49

    Subway: 6" turkey and black forest ham on whole grain with pepper jack cheese, mustard, veggies - 320 (add a bag of baked lays for 130 calories) - 450 for sandwich plus chips

    Moe's Southwest: Joey bag of donuts (burrito) with No Tortilla, chicken, black beans, lettuce, jalapenos, shredded cheese, salsa - 402

    And just because we all participate in weekends, here are some low calorie/carb beers:

    Corona Light - 99 calories, 5g carbs
    Amstel Light - 102 calories, 5.2g carbs
    Miller Light - 96 calories, 3.2g carbs
    Budweiser Select - 99 calories, 3.1g carbs
    Budweiser Select 55 - 55 calories, 1.8g carbs
    Michelob Ultra - 95 calories, 2.6g carbs

    I hope everyone finds this helpful!

    Never heard of or seen the Budweiser Select! 55 calories?! Have you tried it? I wonder what the taste is like. When I drink beers I usually stick w/ Mich Ultra.

    I had a hard time finding the Select 55, but did find some in the grocery store. I tried it this weekend, it's really not for me. I'd say if you like Mich Ultra you won't like Bud select 55. It's pretty watery and bland, but for 55 calories, I had to try it!

    McDonalds grilled chicken bacon salad with half the packet of ranch. I’m a little obsessed with it.
