McFattys

I have a four year old son. When we're out and about, Ashton loves to go to McDonalds to play on their playground, which is a lot of fun. Finding something healthy to eat at McDonalds, however, is like trying to get a quenching drink of water in the middle of the ocean. There's water everywhere, but actually drinking it has dire consequences. Does anyone have any tips for healthy eating at major fast food chains? Because I'm always on the go, and eating at home is almost out of the question some days. Not to mention that I'm often to lazy to set foot in the kitchen. It's sad, but true, and it's something I hope will change as I begin to exercise and motivate myself.

I'm looking for good, healthy recipes to cook that promote healthy living. No pretentious vegetarian dishes, though. I'm a meat eater through and through, and it's not a meal without at least a little of the good stuff on my plate. And seriously, right now I need a lot of calories, though less than I currently intake, or my body will go into protection mode and I'll lose muscle instead of fat. Fun times, right?

  1. Grilled chicken here, grilled chicken there, grilled chicken everywhere. I would stick to the grilled chicken salads or sandwiches at McDonalds with the low fat balsamic vinegarette?? dressing. Subway is one of my favorites though. Taco Bell's fresco menu is awesome....grilled steak tacos,,,yum. Captain D's is another favorite for their grilled fish dinners.

    When I'm dieting I don't put anything in my mouth that I don't know the calories for. Also write EVERYTHING down!

    Good luck!!
