McDonalds Sandwich

[Howard 9]

Ok so since I am not much of a cook I was trying to find some decent fast food, I found one sandiwch that looked fine, just wanted to get an opinion here.

Premium Grilled Chicken Club Sandwich:
570 cals, 21g fat, 0g trans fat, 52g carbs, and 44g protein

Does this seem atleast decent?

You dont need to be an expert cook to be able to make a sandwich at home where you can control the macros.

[Howard 9]

Ok, but hows that sandwich sound?

I'll try that one out, might even get two next time.

I tried the McDonalds one and it had cheese, bacon, and lettuce too. I didn't like how the chicken tasted though.

I've been eating a lot of McDonald's recently too, with the hope of bulking up. My concern is that the bulk that I will or am already adding will be most fat. That is not what I'm looking for since I've lost a good amount of weight recently. I don't want to put it back on again but on the other day, I want to bulk up. I'm basically stuck somewhat, lol

[KingWilder]

few things you need to worry about with fast food:

calories (obviously)...make sure it fits into your needs

fat...trans fat has been shown to actually increase amount of fat stored as abdominal fat...also lots of saturated fat

sodium...usually a ton

I def. wouldn't recommend using fast food to "bulk up"...even if you can fit in into your calories it's still not healthy food

How hard is it to by a bag of boneless chicken breasts, a frying pan and some buns?:nod:

[Mr. D]

or a foreman grill and fixings for a salad and some ww pasta or brown rice or whole grain bread on the side?

[KingWilder]

come on people...obviously we know there are healthier options

BUT that's not what this thread is about

[Noxon]

You're right, I shouldn't have sidetracked the thread... Something about frying chicken and doing wrist curls at the same time just struck me as funny. Let me edit the post, especially since I start commuting to a land with fast food soon and this info might actually prove useful.

i've been in the habit of taking one of the buns out when i am forced to do a burger...less refined carbs..
