TL;DR Version: I thought I was already ordering the perfect fast food diet meal from @Chickfila, but it turns out I only had half of it right. The correct order for dieting fast foodies is: Cool Wrap, Chicken Noodle Soup, 8-Count Grilled Nuggets, and a Coke Zero. Full Review: It is not easy eating fast food every day while simultaneously getting in shape. It is, however, possible if you research the menu in advance and stick to the plan when ordering. For my personal diet goals, I need 130g protein and a caloric intake below 2,000 every day. Meeting these twin objectives does not leave a lot of wiggle room, particularly for someone who eats every meal out. Up until a week ago I had a perfect high-protein, low-calorie order ready to go for any fast food restaurant I frequent. Or so I thought. For years my go-to Chick-fil-A order has been a spicy chicken sandwich meal, substitute a small chicken noodle soup for the fries, Coke Zero for the drink, add an 8-count nugget with sweet & spicy sriracha sauce. Total macros for this meal are 875 calories, 33g fat, 83g carbs, and 64g protein. Then last week I was at a conference in Tampa and met an extraordinary woman who is a bona fide Chick-fil-A expert. When I brought up my perfect Chick-fil-A diet meal she asked if I was getting the cool wrap and grilled nuggets. I ran the numbers and my mind was blown. Her revisions to my meal result in macros of 600 calories, 19g fat, 46g carbs, and 76g protein. The cool wrap is a bit bland, but she recommended a side of light balsamic vinaigrette, which adds flavor and only 80 calories, 4g fat, 10g carbs, and 0g protein. Even with the dressing, the macros in this new meal are miles ahead of my old meal. If you’re looking to diet without giving up fast food, it’s definitely doable with appropriate scouting. If you’re looking to do it Monday - Saturday, this meal is an awesome addition to your fast food diet. #FastFoodReviews #RealFastFoodie #FastFoodDiet #Chickfila #CoolWrap #ChickenNoodleSoup #GrilledNuggets #CokeZero #FastFoodMacros #iifym https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ6Z1DPrNK3/?utm_medium=tumblr
