As far as fast food goes, do the new menu guides not have exchanges and suggestions for eating out? As long as you save your starches, you can get away with an OCCASSIONAL burger (no cheese) from McDonalds as well as pizza, which counts as a carb craver. Just stay away from the fries and the ranch dressing (for pizza dipping)...
At taco bell, you can have one taco (SO not satisfying).. Liz and I usually get the fiesta taco salad. Get it with no sour cream or beans, and ask for extra lettuce.. And try not to eat any of the shell (something I have a REALLY hard time not doing)...
Hey Dan,
Carb cravers - do not exist on the new numbered plans.
Here is a repeat of my earlier post from the Losers and Friends Thread -
I am sorry to say that Carb cravers do not exist on the numbered plans. They were replaced by quick combos. Pizza counts as 1/2 protein/2starches/1fat for 1 plain or vegetable slice (mushroom, broccoli or spinach), pizza shop style; 7" long by 6" crust (1 slice of large 14" pizza); pat oil.
The fiesta taco salad at Taco Bell is 880 calories; 82 grams carbohydrates; 46 grams of fat; 1800 mg sodium - yikes! Even if you don't eat the shell, it is definitely not on plan. This
used to be one of my favorites before LAWL and I had to lose it in order to lose the pounds.
