Calorie count on fast food

I don’t know how long they’ve been doing it on the menu, I just noticed recently. Drove through KFC today. One meal with three pieces of chicken, mashed potatoes and a biscuit was 1800 calories. Nutritionists say that about 2000 calories per day for an adult male is recommended.

Yeah it’s compulsory out here. Most of my favourites aren’t too healthy. A big mac, small these days but still a lot of calories.

I’ve been eating healthy last few weeks and when niece was up had some KFC. All that fat really hit me. It really was something heavy and I went and had a nap. True story. I’m eating more healthy after that.

The only nationwide takeaway chain here is Dominos. Then there’s 2 local kebab places . A couple of places that do Indian food and a few places that do Chinese . Lastly there’s a fish and chip place That’s much less than was available where I previously lived . I’ve gone from about 14 takeaways a month to about 2 a month .

My cholesterol has gone from mid 6 to low 4 .

Fried chicken has a shitload of calories.

Anything fried really.

If you’re watching your calories, avoid bread and anything fried.

Wendy’s chili or mcdonalds snack wrap have lower amounts of calories. I used to eat those when I was dieting.
