Fast Food – Less Fat
The days of long leisurely lunch hours are long gone, for most people the lunch hour has become a time to catch up on daily errands, leaving drive through, take out, and other fast food restaurants the popular and convenient choice for much of the work force, especially working women. Women are often expected to work a 40 hour work week, like their male counter parts but they are still expected to do many of the household chores/errands like going to the dry cleaners, the pharmacy, and the super market, leaving the drive through lane the only option.
A recent “Journal of American Dietetic Association” study found that 59% of women eat their lunch while they are driving or otherwise occupied. Working women should be weary, what they shave off the time clock might reappear on their waists lines and thighs. The same study cited that those who patronize fast food restaurants more than twice a week tend to be at least 10 pounds more than those who eat out less often. These less healthy, albeit convenient, lunches can have problems far worse than having to go up a size- eating too much fast food puts you at a greater risk for diabetes, heart disease, and colon cancer.
Not to worry! We have found several alternatives to the combo meal or the super sized meals that are just as easy to get and have far less calories:
Burger King:
Veggie burger with cheese, lettuce, tomato and ketchup: garden salad with ½ packet of light Italian dressing. About 550 calories
McDonalds:
Premium Southwest Salad with Grilled Chicken with ½ packet of creamy Southwest dressing; fruit and yogurt parfait (without the granola). About 500 calories
Quiznos:
Pan Asian Chicken Chopped Salad, order the dressing on the side use half of it or as for fat-free balsamic vinaigrette for a healthier option. About 330 calories
Panera Bread:
Order a “You Pick Two” combo of Lowfat Vegetarian Black Bean soup and half a Mediterranean Salmon Salad. About 350 calories
Subway:
Six inch Subway Veggie Patty sandwich on toasted wheat bread with lettuce, tomato, two slices provolone, plus any other uncooked veggies, topped with mustard and/or vinegar. About 450 calories
Taco Bell:
Fresco Bean Burrito with a side of guacamole -it contains beneficial fat. About 400 calories
Wendy’s:
Small chili with a side salad tossed with 1 packet of fat-free French dressing and a half order of mandarin oranges. About 400 calories
If these don’t appeal to you, you can still order your favorite burger, just skip the fries- they add about 1200 calories to your meal. Instead of a soft drink order an unsweetened Iced Tea.
