Fast Food - What to Eat?

By Joshua Owen

I recommend that you never eat fast food unless you absolutely must. If you plan ahead, you will be able to make your very own fast food meals that are much healthier, cost less, and give you a much better looking body and better feeling body. But, if you find yourself at a fast food restaurant should you go ahead and eat or not eat?

It's actually much better to make a good choice at a fast food restaurant than not eat at all. But, you shouldn't have to make that choice most of the time!

It's very easy to plan ahead. Take a few minutes to think about the upcoming day. If you're going to be away from home for extended periods of time, take some quick and easy meals with you. Take enough with you so you can eat a full meal once every 3 hours or so.

When I spend the day away from home, I might take a few plastic shaker bottles with me. I fill them with protein and ground oats (simply stick some quaker oats in a coffee grinder). I then fill a few baggies with walnuts, almonds, and/or peanuts.

You've got to add some veggies too! I like to cut up broccoli, cauliflower, all types of peppers, carrots, and cucumbers. I put them in a large baggie and they're ready to go. Combine them with the whey protein, oats, and walnuts and you have some perfect meals for building muscle and burning fat.

If you failed to plan ahead (try not to), you'll need to make the best decisions when you're ordering fast food. Let's say you're at McDonald's, what are you going to order? The french fries are out. Never order or eat french fries. You don't need them. Never order the fatty hamburgers and the white bread buns. That's about the worse combination that's sure to make you fatter.

A better choice would be a chicken salad with about a half pack of ranch dressing. Eat all the veggies in the salad. Don't take them off or order the salad without them. And always order a water. Never order a Coke or anything else. Drink water!

If you know you're going to be eating fast food and have no other choice, get nutrition facts for that restaurant and make a good choice before you go. Then, you won't be tempted to order anything else. It's actually better to check nutrition facts and make yourself a little list at what you can have from certain fast food restaurants. Make sure what you choose fits your meal plan.

You do not need to eat fast food at all. When you quit eating fast food, I guarantee you'll feel better, look better, and become a healthier person. Fast food actually makes me sick now. Just the taste of all the grease makes me sick. I love eating healthy - tastes better and feels better!

When you eat healthy foods, you WILL have higher energy levels for lifting weights. You'll create the OPTIMAL muscle building and fat burning environment. Your metabolism will be higher than ever. And your body will reward you with higher levels of muscle mass and lower levels of body fat.

Is Subway good for you? It's better than most fast food places, but you can do much better by preparing some quick meals at home. A chicken salad filled with different veggies and a small amount of dressing isn't a bad choice from Subway. Stay away from the rest of the stuff.

How long does it take you to wait in a drive through line or a line inside a restaurant? I'll bet you that it's longer than it takes to make some quick and delicious meals at home. For example, I can make a taco salad with lettuce, spinach leaves, lean beef, fat free cheese, fat free sour cream, and salsa in less than 5 minutes! All you have to do is take some time to plan ahead. - 17274
