Hello again collegiettes™!
It’s my second weekend on SELF magazine’s Jump Start Diet and I’m determined to be extra cautious of my meals, especially today. Last weekend, I honestly stayed in to prepare for midterms with a romantic comedy marathon, so there were no temptations to worry about since I’ve been eating and snacking healthy. However, today I have a date with my boyfriend and tomorrow I’ll be going out to lunch with some friends—both occasions include restaurants.
Dealing with one meal at a restaurant sounds totally doable, but two? I researched places that offered healthy meal options because sorry, I don’t want to eat a salad all weekend, and here’s what I found:
Au Bon Pain
Beef Chili (small)—200 cal.
Chevy’s
Santa Fe Chicken Salad (without cheese & bacon)—318 cal.
Chick-Fil-A
Southwest Chargrilled Salad w/ light Italian dressing—255 cal.
Chili’s
Guiltless Carne Asada Steak—371 cal.
Chipotle
Chicken burrito bowl (lettuce, tomatoes, corn, green tomatillo salsa)—315 cal.
Jason’s Deli
Mediterranean Wrap –320 cal.
P.F. Chang’s China Bistro
Cantonese Shrimp—330 cal.
Red Lobster
Live Maine Lobster (steamed, & stay away from butter)—45 cal.
Subway
6-inch wheat sub with turkey breast (lettuce, tomatoes and veggies)and a side of baked potato chips—430 cal.
This sandwich is a recommend to-go lunch option for the Jump Start Diet, too!
Wendy’s
½ Apple Pecan Chicken Salad—180 cal.
