The Mac Wrap

 

I know I am going to get into trouble for this one:
We have all done are best to follow the rules of post op WLS. We dare not cross the path back across the highway to the fast food world of big greasy cheesy burgers, Large Fries, & Shakes, but from time to time we stray with a few cookies, a small hand full of chips, or some other forbidden fruit. I am 10 mos out and have lost about 135 lbs. However, the one thing I still suffer from is the side effects of Food Porn.  My favorite food porn show is Dinners, Drive-Ins, & Dives, I am a big fan of Guy Fieri, however those big burgers they show at some of these places are outstanding. However, I know that I could never eat one, because 1, It is a road back to where I came, 2, I would get sick as a dog by the third bite.
So I wanted to pass this temporary fix on to all my other burger fans out there. It is called the MAC Wrap, by McDonalds. It is 300 calories, 17 grams of Protein. It contains all the contents of a big Mac, except the 3 buns, and it only has one patty in it. You have to eat it slow, and most of us can only eat one. But it is oh so satisfying. And it meets many of our daily calorie count. Mind you I do not do these all the time but once in a while when I am out on the road, it becomes a great equalizer.
Newbie’s should not try these.
 

Happy Holidays   Doc

I am pre-op but it sounds like the protein burgers from Jack in the Box and In-N-Out I might have to look into this before surgery

I too am a Guy fan!  I eat at his restaurant in Santa Rosa (Johnny Garlics) at least 2 times a month.  His staff listens and really accommodates  my food choices!  The wrap sounds great and I will certainly give it a try!!

I love Diners, Drive-in and Dives.  One of my favorite shows on the food network.  At my house, we call the Food Network the Crack Channel because it is like a recovering addic****ching others do drugs.  Does it make me stop watching that channel.....of course not.  I love my food porn.  I am just glad I can't smell it.  That would kill me.

I like Man vs. Food!! Something abou****ch a man stuff is face until he about to bust open!! Makes me miss the good old days!!

Thanks for the info!!

Thanks for the tip! I'll certainly have one soon!  I believe that if you take appropriate measures to eat right, one should enjoy the MAC Wrap...Especially people like me that lift weights and exercise consistently....ENJOY!

Lately... because of the AVATAR toys... I've been picking up the hamburger happy meal... can't fini**** once the toys are gone... I'll be done... I'm maintaining... so all is good!!! Over three years out!

Food Porn! LOL That made me crack up!
