The fruit and yogurt parfait seems like a good choice. I would get that and a grilled chicken snack wrap.0

I usually get the 4 pc chicken nugget happy meal.
They now come with baby fries (like about 10 fries in the pkg) and apples.0 -
SO ............WHAT DID YOU END UP EATIN'????

I guess this would be the time to admit that because my dad insists on meeting me at McDonald's for breakfast once a week and won't choose another locale, that I have been bringing own food and laying it out on my little Ronald McDonald placemat for three years. No one, including dad, has said a word.0

2 double quarter pounders, 20 piece mcnuggets, large fry, large chocolate shake0

But what if she didn't? The poor girl doesn't have to starve, and these are the realities that you're going to have to face in the "real world" Just opt for something mall. Try a grilled sandwhich with water instead of soda, skip the fries.Or even skip one of the buns, that might help. Something of that nature... but get what you want, seriously!diabetes in a bun....just have a diet coke and tell everyone you ate already........ and if they have a problem with that, then they are "enabling you".... ask them if they would buy a pint for an alcoholic........0 -
I think some of us take life to seriously. You might be the most fit person in your city but end up getting run over by someone texting while driving.
Enjoy the fruits of life. It's okay to eat junk foods every now and then. Just don't make it a habit of eating junk foods regularly. And certainly don't begrudge those who eat junk foods every now and then. Again, make it up doing several extra laps the next day.
If some of you think this post is sacrilegious because I'm advocating eating unhealthy foods every now and then, I am not saying you have to eat unhealthy foods. I'm advocating enjoying life.
I agree with your basic philosophy of eating foods that are not necessarily "good for us" now and then because life is uncertain and meant to be enjoyed. But the thought that McD is a way to enjoy life makes my head spin.
It is because life is uncertain and meant to be enjoyed that I avoid crap such as McD serves. I'd rather save my splurges for something that tastes good.0 -
They have VEGGIE BURGERS at Mickey D's????I must be the only person who goes to Mcdonalds and has a veggie burger or wrap! I usually go for that, about 350 Cal's for a veggie burger, skip the fries, have a bottle of water. I had no clue. They probably drench those in oil and butter too.... hahaha. Oh, America....
They do in UK, not allowed to drench in oil and butter here either. Our food laws are quite strict as to what they can do with their food without telling the public. 0 -
Fruit and Yogurt Parfait and Water and then eat when you get home. It's 130 Cals and DELISH!0

Well if ya get fries don't forget you can ask for them to be saltless and they will put down a batch for ya.
This annoyed me, purely because people would ask no salt on their fries and get a double quarter pounder and a large coke. WTF whats the point!! Then complain their food will be cold waiting for their fries. People like that made me want to throw the damn fries in their face :grumble:
The point is hot fries. The other food should be kept under the heat lamp, where it's been for a while anyway, until the fries are done.0 -

What is wrong with you? This person never said he/she gets made about cold food. Why can't someone ask for fries without salt? What does that have to do with a quarter pounder or a coke? It's about cutting out some sodium. Worry about yourself.0 -

Of course, some people think that McD does taste good and they save their splurges for it.0 -
Southwest grilled chicken salad YUMMMM0
-
I'd get the meatiest thing on the menu, double it and discard the buns.
Not ideal but hey, it wouldn't kill me ... Check out the movie Fat Head for how you can do fast food regularly and not suffer.

NEVER EAT MCDONALDS! http://aht.seriouseats.com/archives/2008/09/12-year-old-mcdonalds-hamburger-still-looking-good.html
The McDonald's hamburger on the right is from 2008; the one on the left is from 1996. And they both look fairly edible.
Wellness educator and nutrition consultant Karen Hanrahan has kept a McDonald's hamburger since 1996 to illustrate its nonexistent ability to decay. Aside from drying out and bit and having "the oddest smell," it apparently hasn't changed much in the past 12 years.0 -
Opt for the salad, but with low cal dressing and no cheese, croutons or other bad stuff. It just drives me nuts that all of these places put cheese on their salads. Those are calories I can do without.0

Seriously, neither of these movies "proved" anything except that weight gain and loss is all about calories. Which is hardly a news flash.0 -
The grilled chicken salad, or if you're gonna be expected to eat mcdonaldsy food, the plain hamburger
nom! 0 -
You should probably eat nothing. Even if it is low cal there is little to no nutritional value in it.0
-
2 mcdoubles - no bun no ketchup no cheese
add mayo shredded lettuce and extra pickle0 -
Grilled Chipotle BBQ snack wrap. High in protein, doesn't taste that good..not awful in calories...
Or
Grilled Chicken and bacon salad with Newman's own lite Balsamic Vinaigrette (Which is the dressing I use at home..because.. It is the bomb.)0 -

Seriously people...she didn't as for your opinions on McDonald's itself...just some options for her to eat. She obviously has a reason for going there, so why not just answer the damn question and get on with your life? Just because YOU feel that a McD's Hamburger is the root of all evil, doesn't mean the rest of us do!
Or hey..here's a thought...how about not answer at all?? Try that for once....0 -
nothing. All their food is fatty mess. Even their salads are loaded with calories. I pass on McD's.0
-
I always get the grilled chicken sandwich (classic) and scrape most of the mayo off. They put a ****load on there for some reason! Diet or not, that is just gross. Instead of fries, I ask for a side salad with balsamic vin. dressing. I think this is around 400 cals if I remember correctly. And it is very filling and satisfying!0
-
grilled wrap with honey mustard, unsweet tea or water0
-
Have to eat at mcdonalds tonight. What should i get?
get water.0 -
i usually get a grilled chicken salad no dressing and a diet coke. but sometimes i jsut work into my cals if i know i am going there the day before.0
-
Check the sodium. Everything there is godawful health-wise. Not that it doesn't smell amazing though.chicken nuggets! Theyre not that bad :]0 -
Before you go, goggle pink slim or how nuggets are made. Bet cha you will wait until you get home.:noway: :laugh:0
