What should I get from Chipotle?



Recommended Posts

Been looking up calories, carbs and Protein intake from the burrito bowl at Chipotle. My first day back to work (I work at a fast food place, so nothing I can really eat there.) And I got the okay to go swimming recently, so I have been swimming while playing with kids in the pool. (Tossing a hair clip in the pool and diving to grab it.) was one way to work out in the pool. But it did leave me dizzy a bit! When I got out, the young adults next to me (I am 26, but I know I was a few years older so I feel old.) were talking about BBQ. I was so into that idea, but for a possible healthier way of eating, was thinking burrito bowl. But I dunno what I should have with it. I know no rice but the Guacamole is seducing me. What do you usually get for the burrito bowl?

I cheated a bit on the fourth with some Desserts. I have no regrets, but I am back on where I need to be with healthy eating.

I am also 5 weeks out, woot!

What's wrong with BBQ? Grilled meat is a great source of protein! Just don't drown it with BBQ Sauce.< br>
From chipotle when I was early out I would just get a side of meat (yup they will do that in a little 2 oz container!)

Next step for me was burrito bowl with fajita veggies and meat.

Then I added salsa and maybe sour cream or guac.

Now I can do a salad bowl and every so often add the Beans.< br>

My fiancé and I don't have a grill, nor did we have gas money to drive to my parent's or grab the meat. XD So we were kind of stuck there. Next time though!

I get meat - usually carnitas, as beef is hard on me. No rice. Salsa, Beans, guac (but I ask for them to go easy), cheese, sour cream.

Easily 2-3 meals, even 7 years out.

Ah I was just confused by your initial post then, you said they were talking about BBQ and you thought of chipotle as a possible healthier way of eating. I thought you meant it was healthier than BBQ.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
