Hello. I have a dilemma. Right now, my husband and I are both full time in school and he also works week nights. With our hectic schedules and living on one minimim wage paycheck from week to week, I've found that sometimes I just don't have an option but to go with fast food, unless I want my third cup of sugar free pudding for dinner. He will graduate in the fall, and go straight into a job training program which should help ease up the financial situation.

My question to all you sleevers is what has been the most effecient, but healthy options when you've had to resort to fast food post op?

If we are forced to eat a fast food meal, I like to go to McDonalds and order a plain chicken breast with no bun or sauce. It's very low calorie, low carb, and high in Protein.

I also buy in bulk and cook for the week. I found these steamer bags that you can cook a chicken breast in less than 10 minutes in the microwave. Easy meal there too!

Hope that helps!

Taco Bell Pintos and cheese. About 99 cents I think.

The taco bell pintos and cheese is 4.5 oz. and cost .99. A 16 oz. can of Rosarita Beans is .99 usually at my market. The hot sauce and cheese maybe 3 cents more. Rosarita also make lard free vegetarian, fat free, jalapeno and the regular stuff. I'm still sticking to the fact that cooking at home always beats fast food in price, health and taste. How long to heat up a can of beans? I bet I could beat the drive through guy.

I know you were asking about fast food, but if time and money and health are factors then I offer this.

I always add a little dollop of plain Greek yogurt too. Kicks up the Protein and tastes like sour cream to me.
