What are your healthy food choices at fast food chains?

I usually try for the salads, but don't use dressing. Avoid any crispy toppings on the salad. Sometimes I ask for salsa instead for the dressing.
I don't eat fast food anymore, other than Panera and Chipolte. So it's frustrating at times when I'm out runnings errands all day and I con't have options to eat at because of all the fast food out there.

You have to be so careful with salads. Some of them have more calories then regular food. I like Chick Fillets nuggest (not grilled) they are 8 for 270 ( I think) Calories. Not bad in my book.

other fastfood places I stay away from.

There was a specific diet I was doing once, and could only get these fast food items:
Wendy's: chili beans, no cheese
Mcdonalds: double hamburger, no cheese, no sauce
Jack in the box: chicken pita. If breakfast, I could get a breakfast jack and remove one side of bun.

I like the grilled chicken sandwich from Wendy's. I really like Panera's salads as well.

McDonalds side salad with a side of grilled chicken and Newman's balsamic dressing. It's 4 WW points AND it's only about $3.

It's my go-to meal if I have to lunch out.

How healthy is healthy to you? There is literally nothing to eat at fast food restaurants if you truly want to sidestep most issues. For instance, salads usually have preservatives and all the dressings are just soy and sugar. There really aren't any restaurants that don't add unnecessary things to their foods. Everything seems to be cooked in soy. Panera adds sugar to their chicken.

I used to practically live on fast food (don't shoot me-I've changed my ways LOL), when I first tried to be healthier, I'd go for Chick Fil A with no bread and their fruit bowl, Panera's steak breakfast bowl with no pesto, and the "cleanest" salads I could find without dressing, croutons, etc. When I took it a little further, I found it next to impossible to eat the way I wanted to and I just started carrying food with me that I will eat. I used to think it took more time, but it doesn't. I keep veggies, fruit and protein ready to go in my fridge, so it has gotten to the point, it is just grab and go. There are lots of options when it comes to lunch bags and small coolers.

About the only places that we eat "fast food" are Panera and Chipotle. I usually try to get a salad with dressing on the side or something from the power menu at Panera. I do like their breakfast power sandwich too. At Chipotle, I eat the chicken burrito bowl most often.

DQ's oriental chicken salad is great. I just use a small amount of the dressing.

Chipotle is our favorite. I usually get one crunchy taco, and then fill it with every topping I can, including extra lettuce, then because it's overflowing the shell, I crunch it all up in the basket and make my own little taco salad.  It's way cheaper than a bowl, albeit smaller, but it's plenty for me and it definitely fills me up. Sometimes my daughter and I split an order of three tacos and she takes her two in a separate basket. 

Subway has the chopped salad option, and we always use oil and vinegar and avoid the creamy dressings. Load up on the veggies.

We have a Noodles & Company here,another favorite, and we order the dishes with rice noodles quite a bit. They grill their chicken there and will give you extra veggies if you ask.

We are low carb, so we actually find it pretty easy to eat out. Hamburger/cheeseburger no bun extra lettuce, tomato, mayo, pickles. Grilled chicken sandwich same deal. Side salad if it's available. Unsweet tea. Good to go!

Boston market, chipotle, subway all have good low carb choices.

We eat out often and have little trouble with fast food or sit-down, although I do prefer Five guys for a burger for sure.

I did ask for a sausage egg and cheese biscuit without the biscuit, at a small town Hardee's, and the person serving us looked at me like I had three heads. "You want the what now???"

If I am out running around there is always a grocery store of some kind or another that I will go past. Instead of driving by, I run in grab a banana (no need to wash) and some kind of protein and a bottle of water. Peanut butter, sliced deli meat (if the line is short), etc.

My favorite is... Publix makes whole subs for $6.39 or halves for around $5 and they are real food. Aka whole wheat bread, roast beef, skip the cheese or not, and veggies of your choice - lettuce, tomato, green peppers, spinach, cucumber, etc top with a bit of spicy mustard and no mayo and no oil and vinegar. YUM! Mostly healthy and minimal guilt.
