Wendy's Southwest Avacado Chicken salad....Not Bad!



Recommended Posts

Ok...here it is:

https://menu.wendys.com/en_CA/product/southwest-avocado-chicken-salad/

Now, here's the cool part...

You can order it in a full size, or a half size. The half size has 300 calories. The packet of dressing has 90 calories, but I used less than half on the half sized salad.

Could only eat about a half...of a half size salad....but it was pretty good food on the run. Less than 200 calories in what I ate....felt full...got some avacado, some greens, some Protein. Nothing super special, but it's not a bad fast food option!

I LOVE that they offer it in a half-size. Way cool!

Looks like they do a bunch of cool salads in half sizes!

I was looking really hard at that Mediterranean power salad....it has 40g of Protein in a full size, so must have 20 in the half size. Not bad!

Hmmmmm. Nice. Will check it out next time I’m on the go.

Panera has great healthy choices too around 300 calories. We have a PDQ place that serves chicken items....salads, bowls, sandwiches....they also have great healthy options if you are eating on the run.

You do NOT have to go back to burgers and fries. :P

Thanks for the reminder on that one. My oldest sister used to be hooked on those. I am not yet to the point that I am able to have them but, that will be a great option if I have a time where fast food is the only option.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
