These are all great idea! Us ladies are lucky we can carry wraps in our purse, I think Tony might have to get a murse lol for his wraps.We should all pool our money and open a FTS Fast Food place in the USA and CANADA! We can sell Doug@Umpa books at the counter also wouldn't that be something?

Thanks but no thanks, Lynn! :D :D :D

Normally when I'm on the go for the day, I can get out to my SUV and enjoy a snack or lunch.
I will often take a small cooler and put foods like wraps, hard boiled eggs, cheeses, diet pop, etc. in it.

If I'm somewhere where I won't be able to easily get to my SUV, I'll carry protein bars, pepperoni sticks, nuts, etc..

This system has been working quite well for me so far.

It's all about being prepared! ;)
What you do today is what matters!

It made me think of Joey on Friends show when he carried a bag and called it a murse for a male purse, somehow he thought it sounded more macho that way haha.

Some men can carry it off and some can't - I've seen a man with a bag over his arm and it took me a while to say, Hey! That guys got a PURSE! and then again, I've seen a man with a bag and it stuck out like a sore thumb! I think Tony is the stick out like a sore thumb kind of guy.

great ideas -- I like the one about wrapping the food in the l. t. tortilla. 

I ordered fish tacos somewhere and fork and knife and just scooped out all the fish and inside stuff and didn't eat the tacos.

just be careful of the dressings... read the packets... I Love Ranch Dressings... Burger King uses "Ken's Ranch Dressing" which is awesome as they are only 1 carb. per two Tablespoons so if you use the whole packet it is 2 carbs so i suggest to only use 1/2 a packet.. but like at McDonalds, they use "Paul Newman's Ranch Dressing" that packet is 9....yes, i said ***9*** carb's!!!!! ouch! ...I Love me my whoppers toooo! Blessings to all for a joyful and wondrous new year of success living the Fat to Skinny lifestyle!! Life is so beautiful~~ ...LIVE IT !! Praise the Lord \:D/
 
I recently went to McDonalds and was reading the carbs on the facts sheet, the Ranch dip cups are only 1carb per pack so I asked to change the "Newmans" for the Ranch for the nuggets, The girl waiting on me asked why so I explained it to her and what I was doing..... she looked at me crazy and said "and you're eating here tryin to lose weight?!?!" I just laughed and said its worked with the 50 pounds I've already lost so I think so. She didnt believe me til I showed her my start pic of me on my phone (the one I posted on here) ;D ;D ;D ;D

Wow, that's a great idea Bigtex! I eat at Mcdonalds all the time, 2 mcdoubles,plain,no bun and a side salad. I usually have mayo and Tabasco with me to use as dressing, but if the ranch dip for mcnuggets is only 1 gram, I'm there!
