It always seems to happen on days when I don't have enough time to stop and get something.
I forced the time today - picked up lunch on my way to class. And managed to walk into class just as the professor started talking.
I decided to go to McDonalds because I know that 4 chicken nuggets is only 190 calories and I can get apple slices. But, I really didn't want to eat fried chicken - even if it is lower cal than a burger. Besides protein from the chicken, what nutritional value is in that?
I used a fast food calorie app on my phone to look at other things on their menu and decided upon a southwest fiesta salad with grilled chicken. Skipping the dressing, apparently it's only 320 calories!
While it was tasty, let me caution you all: Driving and eating a salad is a Bad Idea. Now, I didn't have a wreck, but I was close several times. And let's not to mention the dropped corn kernels and lettuce leaves all around my console! I ordered a couple of apple dippers to add fruit to the meal - saving one for my snack after class.
