[Amber_02]

I am on Induction, and I eat out often. I am a vegetarian, well kind of, I eat only chicken and sometimes turkey. Anyways, Many of my friends often drive down to McDonalds, Wendy's, and Tim Hortons at lunch. I useto always go with them but now I don't think I can eat anythin. . .can I?

Hi,

You can eat at fast food places, but you'll have to be careful with your food choices. Most of the fast food restaurants have websites that give the nutritional value of their menu items.

Stick to the salads, avoid the dressings (they have quite a bit of sugar or high fructose corn syrup) and broiled meat items that you can eat. If you can't bring yourself to eat a "dry" salad, then fill a little bottle (like an empty vanilla extract bottle) with a legal dressing and bring it along---I usually use olive oil, salt, pepper and alittle vinegar because this mixture doesn't require the refrigeration a cream or mayonnaise based dressing does.

I hope this helps you.
