McDonald's Nutrition Facts

Like me, always on the run, never have time to cook food or stop and prepare dinner - fast food to go is the best solution. Its getting harder everyday to make time to cook. Preparing food takes about 30 mins. and then adding 20 mins. to cook the food equals to about 45 mins to 1 hour to just to make a meal. Time is one of our precious things to take advantage of.

Fast food or restaurants meal are good but be careful of your choices. McDonald's Quarter Pounder with cheese is 510 calories and 23 grams of fat. WOW! Fillet O-Fish is 380 calories and 18 grams of fat. We all know whats is healthy, it just very hard to choose the right foods against the bad foods. Well, snap out of the smell of greasy hamburgers coma and back to reality.

The Grilled Snack Wrap with Honey Mustard or Chipotle BBQ is only 260 calories. Its a perfect snack for on the go until you can go home and eat something proper. If you go the for the 6 piece chicken nugget (250 calories), don't choose the creamy ranch at 200 calorie in a 1.5 oz. pack, try the Honey Mustard, Buffalo or the BBQ which is only 70 calories in a pack. McDonald's do have salad but be careful with the dressings.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I say get up early and have a bowl of cereal with fruit rather eating a Sauage Egg McMuffin (450 calories). If you did sleep in and on the go to work, order the English Toast McMuffin (160 calories) no butter with strawberry jam (40 calories) and add on (if you like) Fruit Yogurt w/granolas (160), w/out granolas (130). If you are a sweet tooth order a 1 pkg. Apple Dipper (35 calories, 0 fat) with the low fat caramel dip (70 calories, 5 fat).
