Low
Carb Fast Food
If
you ask most people, eating at a fast food restaurant is a part
of their weekly activities. Whether it is lunch or dinner, people
admit that they will go through a drive through before preparing
their own lunch or dinner. If you are one of those people trying
to lose weight on a low-carb diet, then you understand how hard
sometimes it is to find foods on the menu that you can eat. Low-carb
fast food has to be searched out but nevertheless it exists if
you know where to look.
When making low-carb choices on fast food menus there are few
things you're going to be looking for. First, you want to know
how many calories are in the item you're going to order and what
exactly is in it. Second, when in doubt order the chicken breasts
without the breading, you can't go wrong ordering this item. Ask
for no dressing or mayonnaise. Mustard on the other hand can be
low in calories just check the sugar and carbohydrate count on
this condiment. Third, try ordering hamburgers without the bun.
Obviously, the carbohydrates in the bun must be avoided. If you
remain on the low carb diet you will get used to eating hamburgers
without a bun.
Mainstream restaurants have answered the call of dieters across
the nation. Recognizable chains such as McDonald's, Burger King,
Subway, and Wendy's all offer items on their menu which will help
you stay on your diet in a pinch. It is not recommended that you
eat fast food frequently while you are on a low-carb diet, but
if you must these are the places to go.
When it comes to fast food restaurants, Subway offers more choices
in fresh vegetables on their sandwiches. You can choose from bell
peppers, lettuce, tomato, hot peppers, black olives, green olives,
vinegar, and oil which are low in carbs. Nothing beats a great
sandwich that is made fresh to your order and is healthy and delicious
as well. Subway even has their own representative Jarad, who has
lost over 100 pounds eating at their establishment. This is a
great testimony to what can be done with custom ordering and counting
carbs when eating fast food.
Low-carb fast food can be found in your neck of the woods by going
through the drive-through and carefully making choices that are
tasty and healthy for you as well. Getting trim has never tasted
so good.
