What food can you order at restaurants or fast food places that is low fat/calories?




Ron Brgund


Hooter's salad with chicken is really healthy if you don't use much dressing..
Taco Bell taquitos are not bad on calories. Their fresco stuff is also not too bad. What else?



Answer
roast chicken salad at Arby's is only 160 calories.
BK Broiler Chicken Sandwich 267 calories
Chargrilled Chicken Sandwich at chick-fil-a is 280 calories

Origninal Recipe, Drumstick from KFC is 140 calories each

Subway has several subs under 300 calories:
6" Honey Mustard Turkey with Cucumber 275
*6" Ham Sub 261
*6" Roast Beef 264
*6" Subway Club® 294
*6" Turkey Breast 254
*6" Turkey Breast with Ham 267
*6" Veggie Delight 200


Small chili at Wendy's is 210 calories.

Mostly chicken stuff it all depends on what you like and how healthy you're looking for really I personally like mcdonalds fruit salads(210) and parfaits(160) but you can't really live on those.

Cheap Healthy Salads Recipes?




Tarazha


I'm looking for healthy salad recipes that I can make at home on a strict budget of 50 dollars for the whole month to cover 1-2 out of 3 meals a day. The reason is I'm trying to lose weight and my goal is to prepare something healthy for at least two of my daily meals since dinner is usually cooked for the house by someone else. Salads have caught my attention just because I really like salads and my diet currently has few fruits and veggies in it so I'm killing two birds with one stone there. Anyone have some salad recipes that can cover lunch for a week that incorporate chicken (i hate chicken breasts it's so dry) and some kind of pasta for around 300-350 calories a serving? I'm not a picky eater but I'm also not a chef. If the salads voluminous enough I wouldn't mind swapping out snacks for salads and eating a lighter lunch. If it helps I'll lay out the regime the nutritionist gave me.

Breakfast: 300-500 calories
Snack: 100 calories
Lunch: 300-500 calories
Snack: 100 calories
Dinner: 400-500 calories

The recommended amount of calories consumed was less than 2000 calories with regular walking exercises. I'm morbidly obese trying to get healthy so obviously I'm not going to actually consume 2000 calories a day. I've looked uo all the tips there can be found on stretching a meal I don't need more tips I'm asking for salad recipes to try.

Hi Tarazha,
I used to make fairly cheap salads for lunchâa wedge of cabbage, some carrot, celery and cucumber sticks, sliced yellow paprika and red cherry radish, a few cherry tomatoes, 3-4 slices of rolled supermarket ham, and 6-8 half-inch cubes of cheese, usually natural, sharp cheddar. For dressing? A pinch of salt and a dash of pepper! VERY occasionally, my wife would put a teensy tub (about one ounce) of miso + mayo + soy or Worcestershire sauce, for dipping the vegetable sticks and sometimes I'd throw a whole, or half a boiled egg into the lunch-box. I could eat this 3-4 days running, but would want a ham & cheese sandwich or a burger at least once per week

I've been eating only fresh fruits for breakfast for the past 18 months, and lost 28lbs (13 kilos) in less than a year without any change in exercise, which shocked my doctor! My previous weight was 93kg/200+lbs (borderline obese at 5'11") and my last 'target' weight was 88kg, but I was a smidgen under 80kg at our next meeting. I was eating 'mostly' salads for lunch, but I could also do a small ham and *real* cheese bagel (180-190kcal) and a cup of cold Vichysoisse/corn/pumpkin soup (70-80kcal) and I could work all evening on that.

Best of luck with the weight loss. Watch out for the 'stealth calories' in salad dressings, please!
