CELEBRATE NATIONAL FAST FOOD DAY NOVEMBER 16TH WITH A TWIST
Today is National Fast Food Day, it's estimated that Americans will spend a whopping $223 Billion dollars on fast food by the year 2020. During these busy times, fast food options don't have to be bad ones.
Below I am sharing delicious ways to celebrate this tempting holiday the healthy way.
Healthy Fast Food Options
Opt for fast food chains that serve healthier options like
Au Bon Pain: Take a look at the menu and you will notice they offer some amazing options for breakfast.
Chipotle: Has a nutrition calculator that can help you stay on track, now how cool is that? If you select the right items from the menu you can really build a healthy burrito! Stick to beans, loads of veggies like romaine lettuce and fajita veggie mix are a great option.

Make a change for your health
Sure it's nice to treat yourself to your favorite cheat meal every now and then but why not create a lifestyle where even your cheat meal isn't all that bad? Listen, I love pizza just as much as the next person but when you eat clean, your body won't even enjoy the foods you once loved. Making a change is important considering alarming health stats like consuming fast food can lead to cardiovascular disease, heart failure, and Type 2 diabetes.
