Weight-Loss What meal would you choose?

I usually go for the Whopper Jr. hold the mayo. It's like 300 cals and it's kind of like having a salad too with all the crap they put on it. Although these days hold the tomatoes too.
 
ah you won't consider the salmonella diet? come on - you'd lose like 20lbs in a few days. ok so you'd probably never leave the bathroom.. but -eh the price we pay to look good :)
 
My old man was talking about the time he had salmonella. He dropped down to 140. Pretty tempting until you hear the stories of wishing you were dead.

I prefer two, hot off my own grill. Laura's Lean patties are 160 cal each, frozen or fresh, and turkey burgers are 160 cal per patty. Last night I made patty melts with LL beef patties, toasted 45 cal per slice 7 grain bread, onion and I split a large slice of 1% swiss cheese between the two. With onions, pickles and mustard the combined cal count for both sandwiches came in at a tasty 585 cal.
 
I got Burger King, KFC, Wendys, Sbarro, and McDonalds correct. That's because I eat McDonalds and Pizza pockets, so I know the calories a little more roughly for the burger joints.

We don't have a taco bell in my town, and I've never heard of Carl's.

The numbers don't surprise me because I try to plan out what I'm eating before I go. I love fast food.

What did shock me though is when I found out my boyfriend orders a triple whopper at burger king every time he goes (which is generally more than once a week.), and then a little extra on the side. His entire meal was probably between 1500-1800 calories. For that one meal! According to a few sites, a triple whopper has 1250 calories.
 
I wouldn't choose any of those meals, but I was able to identify the lower-calories ones. I'm usually pretty good about being able to pick the less-bad from a list of bad choices. My personal metric tends to be not calories, though, but calories per gram of protein, and I'm not good at guessing for that.
