Default Re: Arby's

Nope. If you go on their website, you can personalize your menu and see what's in each item.

They are not using cheese in that stuff, but some cheese food/sauce that has 2 carbs per 21 g and contains modified corn starch, maltodextrin, nonfat dry milk... among some other really crappy ingredients.

Eggs, cheese, whole veggies, canned meat are easy to carry with you and eat when you get hungry or when 6 hours have passed since your last meal. Or you could go at Arby's, but tell them to skip the cheese sauce and bring your own, Induction-legal cheese to have with the meat. But for 2 oz of roast beef, which is what's left without the bun and the cheese, I wouldn't bother.

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
