What do you grab when you have to eat on the run? I am just curious.

    Depends on your nutritional and calorie goals. Some people will find salads or grilled chicken to be their best choice, others will find that a Big Mac fits nicely into their day.

    Normally I go for a salad with grilled chicken and a low-cal dressing (italian, balsamic vinegrette, fat free honey mustard). Works for me, might not work for others. ;-) Sometimes I might get a grilled chicken sandwich (no mayo, I don't like it much so it's not worth the calories) and maybe a fruit smoothie if I have extra calories to play with.

    Love Moe's...I get the Joey Jr chicken, no rice, no cheese, black beans, tons of veg (cucumber, bl olive, fr jalapenos, 2 types of salsa).

    (Edit: I know it's high in sodium, but it's better than a Big Mac. ;)

    It used to be a 6" sub from subway. Not anymore. The amount of sodium in every one of their breads is way too high for a kidney stone sufferer. So if I have to hit subway it is usually a salad with their weird looking chicken breast.

    I started getting a sushi roll to go, no soy sauce. I'm not a fan of raw fish, but it is better than any other choices I can easily get to. Plus I can get salmon for some healthy fat and they will make it with brown rice. I skip the avocado, I hate the texture. If I get it at Publix or our post commissary I grab a piece of fruit and a bottle of water on the way.

    I usually travel with a Slim fast drink and a Luna Bar at all times. I like Subway 6" subs. Wendy's Small chicken sandwich with just lettuce and tomato in a crunch. Their Chili is pretty good if you're not driving.
