gee, and the only one advertising low carb is KFC. I can't believe their latest commercial were the wife says "we are going to start eating healthy now", then hands the husband a tub of fried chicken.

I find the McDonald's Cobb salad with grilled chicken to be a good choice, especially if you have their Ranch dressing instead of the Cobb dressing (less sugar). It has bacon and blue cheese, which make it really satisfying to me. I'm in maintenance now, but when I was in OWL, I just picked out the carrot slices.

Yuck... I've never had a good fast-food salad. I just order the burgers. They make me quite happy.

Can you believe KFC's commercials??? 11 grams of carbs in 1 chicken breast. And it's ALL in the breading, give me a break. Since doing this WOL, when I get a whiff of KFC down the block, I almost gag. It smells sooooooooo gross to me. I love going to our local burger joint, Portillos, and get a double bacon cheese burger minus bun and a side caesar salad minus the croutons. Delectable!!!!
