The plans of the loss of the weight of the doctor of the view in 2010-lock fast food restaurants are watching their calories

Fast-food drive-ins hitting the trail of the diet along with the rest of the country. Seeing the writing on the wall, get even the fast-food restaurants their act together. No longer able to sit back and watch America's children get more and more weight, number of companies offer new low-calorie meals in 2010.

Here are some "rules of the road" to save hundreds of calories and fat grams as low as possible.

No cheese, grilled-not fried, water or diet drinks, wheat bread, mustard not mayo, low fat salad dressing on the side, no extra sauces.

Metro: The road is our usual favorite, subway Fresh Fit with their meals. Ordering a sub with sliced apples, yoghurt or baked chips of the meals with 450 calories or less end. For example, the Turkey Breast with sliced apples 315, with baked chips 410 and with lite yogurt 360 calories.Look for the lean meat buns, hold the Mayo and the oil. always choose a bottle of water or a zero calorie soft drinks. Metros sliced apples 35 calories are always a nice addition. It's been a good package.

Taco Bell: A reversal, this perennial favorite is joining the low calorie low fat crowd with their new test Drive Thur-diet. Test marketing has indicated interest in these products. Drive-Thru food is often limited because salads and other lower calorie foods difficult to eat in the car. People end up with products that they catch up with their fingers, one at a time. (Sounds like French Fries?)Their fresco menus contain tacos ranging from 150 to 180 calories, burritos of 330 to 340 calories. all 8 grams of fat or less and all can be eaten in the car. Few people will add rice or beans, the usual sides, because of the difficulty in consuming them on the run. A great choice for mothers with small children who have to eat in the car. There are no French Fries at Taco Bell.

Starbucks: Starbucks has always paid lip service to low calorie, low fat products while sales of some of the highest calorie and fat products available. Their trendy shops with Internet, Newspapers and music have served to draw attention away from their very high calorie products. Imagine a coffee drink for 500 or more calories!. Starbucks is now cue from the rest of the industry with their new Hot Panini sandwiches. All are less than 400 calories with between 4 to 6 grams of fat. This is a chicken Santa Fe Panini with chicken, cheese and sour cream, with a roasted tomato and mozzarella panini, a combination of foaccia bread and roasted tomatoes, spinach and mozzarella cheese.The line ends, it is my favorite ham and cheese on 370 calories and 4 grams of fat and the tuna melts at 340 calories and 4 grams of fat. All great choices. they will be a new vanilla Rooibos Full Leaf Tea as part of the company add transition to new Tazo full leaf tea and herbal infusions All Tazo Tea have zero calories. Starbucks will also introduce Skinny Cinnamon Dolce Latte and the skinny VanillaLatte, as part of the new menu. Both lattes are 90 calories for a high (12fl. oz.).A zero calories drinking, add some sliced fruit and you have a great lunch on the run.

Dunkin Donuts: How did that in our list of the new year resolutions? Well, they some attention with their wake-Up Wraps. The eggs into protein cuts the calories by more than 25%.The cover of the egg and cheese with whole eggs is 170 calories, change in the egg white wrap reduces calories 130. they are on the small side, so you can eat even two.

Not new, but the better choices in the big three hamburger joints:

McDonald's: salads are still the best bet with the Asian chicken salad on 290, the Caesar chicken on 220, but you must use the low fat dressing. Even the plain old hamburger is only 249 calories, while the grilled chicken sandwich 310 calories.You need a hand to replace the French fries, I suggest the Apple dippers with Carmel (105 cal) or fruit and yogurt parfait 140 calories. Add to These meals with a zero calorie drink you can leave with an entrance hall and side and spend as little as 350 calories

Burger King:Once again the salads are the lowest but you should look at the Add-ons, in particular the dressings. The Tender Grilled chicken breast sandwich is an acceptable 300 calories without mayo.A veggie burger is 340, even a Whopper Jr. is only 290 calories.It is the fries that really increase the calories may. There are fewer low calorie side choices here than almost all of the other restaurants, best choice seems to be the garden salad (140 calories) with Kens low fat dressing (40 calories.)Whole meal including Jr. Whopper, salad dressing, mustard and diet drink equal to about 470 calories.However, you need to be careful here because there are a lot of other very attractive choices that are much higher.

Wendy's.They have no new products for not announced early in January 2010. stick to the small Chile, just baked potatoes, Mandarin chicken salad (plain, low fat dressing) and the chicken wrap 310 calories.

When forced by ease, driving time, and price-Thur food, all these new products make good alternatives. don't forget the "rules of the road"-no mayo, sauces, cheese, fried foods, low fat dressing, no extra ad-on's to salads. looking forward to more of our fast-food restaurants.
