Fast Food Examples Needed



Recommended Posts

There are a few restaurants around here that do skinny wings which basically aren't breaded but baked with sauce. Can't wait to get them!

Lol. U guys are talking salad I'm no where near salad but it sounds good. I was stuck at Cozumel for dinner. Me n hubby got two tacos w/ shredded beef and 1 chicken enchilada with the refried Beans. We both only ate the meat cheese out the tacos n prob 3 bites of the beans. No shell. Chewed a bunch but omg that was so good! Plus protein! Thanks for all the ideas!

Sorry guys, it's a little hard to read. The Excel formatting is lost in the copy and paste. Not much I can do about it as forum rules do not allow me to post an Excel file. Each one is in the order of menu item, calories, serving size, and Protein.< /p>

I moved to PA and the first time I ordered a grilled chicken salad it had french fries. It was like what the hell? Defeats the purpose of a salad. Then I ate it. Lol

They are so good though right!?? Lol

I'm a little over three months post op and I can do salads just fine with no troubles. I haven't tried a fried type...but I'm sure the grilled salad from Zaxbys would be fine.

I had a little salad a few days ago. Went down good too bad it's still 3-4 bites are you able to have 1/2-1 cup of food yet? I can get 1/2cup Cereal only everything else it's a few bites.

This thing has been bugging me so I tried copying the info into Word and then copying that to my post - much better!! At least I'll be able to sleep again! LOL

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
