I tend to avoid them like the plague, but that's just personal preference.

I've seen Fat Head and believe that it is entirely possible to live off fast foods (short term, of course), and still lose weight. You're severely limited to what you can eat though.

Regarding ingredients, I'm sure there are many reports/studies regarding what actually goes into McDonald's products. They won't be shown on the Nutritional Value list because it would probably make the list too long.

What I loved the most about fast food was... it was fast. You don't have to spend 30-60 minutes cooking stuff. It's just in and out.

For UK keto'rs Nandos is awesome, they have full nutritional data online.
Their Whole chicken is a HUGE meal and only 6grams of carbs and tastes so good.

The fries are too tempting and the meat is suspect so I stay away.

We have a Chik-fil-a nearby, and I get their chargrilled chicken salad. Instead of dressing, I use a couple packets of their buffalo sauce, which is low carb . Delicious. They keeps this stuff behind the counter.

If I think I can swing the calories, it's hard to beat the 6 Dollar Low Carb Burger at Car's Jr, though. ommnommnommm!

I do burrito bol's at Chipotle every now and then if I'm in a hurry. Also the UnWich at Jimmy John's is great for Keto.

I eat a lot of Jimmy John's Unwiches, and a ton of Hooters or Buffalo Wild Wings. I work full time and go to school full time on top of being a single parent to a kid who's very active in sports, so sometimes fast food or take out is unavoidable.

(late reply, i know, but i'm bored.)

I like having 2x double stackers or a triple stacker from Burger King, no sauce no bun. It's $1 per stacker, so that's fairly cheap. They come with cheese and bacon and are pretty fantastic. If I'm near a Jack In The Box, I'll tend to go with an Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburger (no bun, no ketchup) but that is kind of expensive. I do enjoy their grilled chicken club salad, too. And they have the best breakfast: Extreme Sausage Sandwich, no bun, extra egg. Add some taco sauce, and you're good to go!

Chipotle is the most expensive thing around here, but a bowl of their barbacoa on a bed of shredded lettuce, with sour cream, cheese and guacamole? YUM! Worth the $10 every couple of weeks as a treat. I had the Carl's Jr $6 low-carb burger last October on a road trip, and I agree, it was pretty amazing.

i get the carls junior protein style at least once a week

i hear though that it is the processed cheese you have to be careful of not the beef patty

the cheese tends to have 2g of carbs per slice

if you get the in n out with mustard only its virtually no carbs

What are your thoughts on fast food? Today I had 3 McDoubles plain, without the bun of course, and it was all within the normal limits of a Keto diet, but places like McD's have been known to put in so many other things in their food that's not listed on the nutritional info.

Also, what are your favorite things at fast food restaurants?

I used to eat the double stackers at wendy's sans the buns every other day. It worked wonders for me

I've cut back on the fast food, but I don't feel terribly guilty about grabbing a Quarter Pounder with Cheese or an Egg McMuffin (both sans bread) once in a while — especially when I'm in need of a protein fix.

Otherwise, as others have mentioned, Chipotle is my go-to for quick meals when eating out. Fajita bowl with chicken, salsa, cheese, guacamole, and lettuce. A small serving of brown rice if it's a day I need some carbs.

I also stay away from all fast food. The only thing that I eat that I consider is 'fast food' is subway, but I get the salad anyways so it doesn't even matter. I tend to stay away from it, because of not knowing exactly whats in the meat, I love ketchup and can't possibly say no to it, and because I feel like it's not worth the price if I'm not getting the bun, one little patty of burger meat isn't worth it when I could eat so much more and actually feel good about it at HOME.
