I have been looking for some low calorie fast food on the go. Thanks for the recommendation this helps a lot. You always make things prettier and brighter and more pleasing
Bonsoir,
Se La Vie Kristy, fast food is not an option for me, sadly…..mainly because I am Gluten Free and sugar free as well as sodium free. I am also an RN and Nutrition has always been my thing (my sis is a nutritionist)….I usually make food at home and pack it in my lunch bag and I’m good to go. It helps me when I’m on the run. I never
had a weight problem until I found out I had Hashimotos Thyroiditis and I am picky what goes in my mouth and body these days to help my immune function and keep trim. I also put on 20 pounds and trying to take it off, it’s a progressive feat lol….and the GF and SF lifestyle is working finally. I am thrilled you posted this for others who can eat foods like these, they are awesome choices and I’ll pass them on to my hubby who loves fast foods!
….merci bien Kristy!
Ps. I am French Canadian :)
I know you’re on a healthy journey and I think it’s great. You inspired me to start my own. Just need to get on a workout routine. Anyway I have lost 8lbs so far and wanted to share what I am doing with you .. I started this metabolism meal plan that’s portioned but very balanced. Each meal I eat a protein , starch , vegetable and fruit. I had to do bloodwork to see what foods my body can handle and I now have a list of superfoods I should eat. Anyway there are rules .. 1. Always take a bite of protein before anything else on your plate. Helps with insulin , never mix your proteins (ie: egg and cheese as cheese is considered a protein ). Try and have 3 different proteins in the day 3. Wait 5 hours after you finish one meal to have the next ( no snacking or coffee in between .. that’s been the hardest ) and drink a lot of water .. honestly I’m eating more and I’m full after each meal. I’m not feeling sluggish anymore or bloated but I’m eating more protein fruit and veg in a day then I ever have in the past. Life is all about balance and this is doing that for me. And I’m allowed a cheat meal a week ?. Anyway .. love your blog and posts and stories
Absolutely love your instagram and blog! I love your food options, but you should be looking at the carbohydrates for each items. I would not choose these items due to their potentially high carbohydrate count. I am not a nutritionist, but I know too many carbs means weight gain.
I LOVE this post! I’m from Germany and come to the States on the regular. Every time I leave I’m 10 pounds heavier as there are so few low calorie options when eating on the go. I’ll be back in a couple months and will definitely try your suggestions. I just lost all my baby weight and I’m not planning on gaining any weight this time around. Thank you so much! One last question remains. When you say to ‘take off’ or ‘hold’ something does that mean it has to be mentioned when ordering or would it be additional anyway?
Hi Lisa, Thank you.. Yes, you want to always mention you want the dressing on the side or the mayo ‘off’ otherwise it may end up on the salad or sandwich. :) Hugs! xx
If I have to eat McDonald’s, I also like the small hamburger. It’s tasty and filling. Great recommendations – thanks for putting these in my head, I will remember them when on the go!
I LOVE the egg white bites @ Starbucks !
This is a great post !

Thanks for your insight Dee. Eating at home is always preferred… Love your tip about packing a bag to go. So smart! xx
Thank you for the post…very helpful! The “tiny hamburger” is always a good option for me too at MacDonalds. Lol!
Crazy but true.. even after all these years. ;) Hugs!

Thanks for sharing Anna! So many great tips.. I’m definitely trying to drink more water too. :) Congratulations and hugs!
Hi Kristy,
I’m a vegetarian and love that you included some veg friendly options! Great tips and suggestions! :)

Definitely looking at carbs is important!
I love Del Tacos Street Tacos. Chicken is only 170 calories!! I get two for a filling meal ! The steak is only 180 calories!!!
I’ll have to give those a try! Thanks Lauren…
