Eat Fast Food? Why not?

If you ask your diet consultant about the fast food, they will suggest you to avoid it. Well, I also suggest my client to avoid it. But sometimes, we don’t have time to prepare our meals, and the only solution is the fast food restaurant just around our home or office. Then I try my best to make a solution for this thing. Here the 3 ways to healthier fast food.

1. First at all, choose the small size. Instead, choose a children's sized, which has about 250 to 300 calories. This switch alone saves 200 to 300 calories. Or better yet, select a lower calorie option. (Hint: For example, ask for reduced-fat mayonnaise or mustard on your sandwich.)

2. If you want to eat more, choose a large entree salad with grilled chicken, shrimp or garden vegetables with fat-free or low-fat dressing on the side, rather than regular salad dressing, which can have 100 to 200 calories per packet. Be careful with the high-calorie salads, such as those with deep-fried shells or those topped with breaded chicken or other fried toppings. (Hint: skip salad extras, such as cheese, bacon bits, croutons and fried chips, which quickly increase your calorie count.)

3. Then, pay attention with what you drink. Many beverages contain a large number of calories. For example, a large regular soda (32 ounces) has about 300 calories. Rather than to order diet soda, better to order unsweetened iced tea, sparkling water or mineral water. (Hint: skip the shakes and other ice-cream drinks. Large shakes can contain more than 800 calories and all of your saturated fat allotment for the day.)

With these tips, you can dieting and eat healthy even at fast-food restaurants.
