Dieting – Fast Food Do’s and Don’ts
Jan 15th 2009 in Fast Food
With our busy schedules we just can’t help but to stop at a fast food restaurant once in a while. Taking kids to school, working a 9 to 5 shift and maintaining a clean household can put quite a strain on our time. That is why a drive-through food service seems very appealing at times. When we find ourselves in this particular situation, is there anything on the menu which will not make our waistline plump?
When you are at a fast food restaurant, there are certain factors to take into consideration. Of course anything fried should be immediately eliminated from your list of choices. We all know that fried food is laden with calories, cholesterol, sodium and numerous other preservatives. And keep in mind that your kids should also stay clear from anything fried. French fries, onion rings, sodas, and super-size meals are all bad news. They will quickly rob you of your health and of your slim waist. While at the drive through window, you should opt for a salad with dressing on the side or a grilled chicken sandwich without the works (no mayo, bacon, etc.).
