A fast-food diet? It may seem like an oxymoron, but for the millions of Americans living a low-carb lifestyle-many of whom still end up eating on the run at fast-food joints and sitting down with their families at chain restaurants-The Smart-Carb Guide to Eating Out shows how to stick to a low-carb diet when eating on the go.

Rather than simply listing the nutritional content and requiring us to do the math ourselves to figure out what to eat, Tracy Jones, M.S., provides a shortcut by listing which menu items (or combination of menu items) compose a smart-carb meal that is compatible with The Zone, South Beach, or any 40-30-30 diet. The book also provides calorie and carb content so that readers can easily customize meals to meet their own nutritional needs. And with the help of the 7-Day Quick Start Program, readers can quickly implement their favorite fast-food meals-like the Classic Single hamburger and Junior Frosty at Wendy's-to jump-start their weight loss.

Customer Review

I first purchased this book in its first, self published edition and was blown away. I was already eating 'zone' (i.e. proportions of 40-30-30 of Carbs, Protein and Fat calories) and a big fan, but it was such a hassle figuring out what to eat at restaurants, especially fast food. Because of work, I often had to resort to this option, so Tracy's book was a welcome resource, and I have used it often over the years, especially recently.

At first glance, it may appear that meals are way too small to be satisfying (for an average woman, a meal of 350 calories, for example, which may be Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich with no mayo and only the bottom half of the bun), but that is the magic of the zone- by eating enough fat and protein with your carbs, your body is triggered to feel full and happy on an appropriate amount of food. For me, just going to Wendy's feels like a treat, and if I can have a frostee with my meal (one of the other meal options), I don't feel deprived. Incorporating the meals in this book with other 'zone' eating is helping me lose weight and not feel hungry.
