McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger Without Bun a Good Low Carb Choice?
Once in a while, we will go through McDonalds and get what we consider a “treat” when we’re on the up and up with our diet routines. It’s considered a treat considering we know it’s not low in fat and certainly doesn’t have much nutritional value aside from a lot of protein (and grease), but at least it’s very low in carbs, and it’s an alright choice for when you want to be “bad” without really being poor at night for dinner. We eat two double cheeseburgers from McDonalds without the bun. It’s really tasty too! I love it when the pickles are still hot and there is ample ketchup, mustard and onion to add to the savory flavor.
We always discuss additionally how there must be some sort of an addictive chemical in their cheese, considering the american cheese McDonalds uses tastes so good, unlike other american cheese slices I’ve had. I don’t know whether it’s just considering it’s higher in sodium or perhaps in fat, but they’ve got the cheese down to a science. Plus there is some sort of seasoning in their burger patties. I detect a bit of an onion flavor in them.
At any rate, let’s talk about the calorie composition in two McDonalds double cheeseburgers without the bun. There are about 280 calories in a double cheeseburger without the bun. You save about 120 calories by not having the bun, and a whole lot of carbohydrates as well. considering you can burn off pure protein better than you can protein combined with a simple carbohydrate (the bun), that makes for an ok meal to have at night. It will satisfy you, but you may find that you’re somewhat hungry an hour later, although you don’t usually feel an absolute need or desire to eat more food, which is a good thing of course.
What you’re really doing here is eating low carb. It’s a good notion to do that at night so that you don’t get too tired whether you eat that during the day. next you additionally don’t have as towering of a date at night to crash from lack of sugars (there are basically no sugars, which is fuel for the body and brain) in his since it’s mostly protein, unless you count the ketchup and other condiments.
We’ve been eating that as a meal about once a week and it allows us to feel like we’re being poor for dinner when in reality it is within our calorie restrictions, and I never gain weight from eating it the wee hours after, which is good. In fact, I might even be a pound or two lighter!

Two Great Low Calorie, Low Fat Snack Ideas
I’m always on the quest for new light snack ideas that will satisfy my sweet/salty snack tastes but won’t bottom me out when it comes to calorie, fat, salt and carbohydrate allowances for the day. I plus like snacks that are high in fiber so that they fill me up and are satisfying for a longer period of moment than snacks with no fiber at all. that is why I discovered two new snacks for my low fat, relatively low calorie diet. And they taste good and they satisfy, which is the most crucial part of all!
Ok, so my first favorite new low fat, low calories and fiber rich snack is Orville Redenbacher’s mini bag of Light Kettle corn popcorn. that one is WAY better than the regular butter flavored stuff in my opinion. It’s got a nice, lightly salty and sweet taste to it with just a tip of a butter taste. The sweet tip is what really makes that popcorn fun to eat. It satisfies that sweet and salty craving that so many of us have which is the reason we go overboard and eat the wrong foods considering we crave that sweet or salty combination.
That usually means fat, salt and calories, but that is great considering it doesn’t come with all that baggage, and it’s plus fiber rich. You feel like you’re eating a lot considering it takes up a lot of space, and it does satisfy. It’s 110 calories per mini bag. It has two grams of fat per bag, and a whopping 4 grams fo dietary fiber. Nice! You could even eat two of these bags whether you were super hungry and not bust your calorie counts for the day whether you really wanted to!
My second snack I like now is something I’ve noticed is increasingly hard to get at the grocery store, so it must be catching on like crazy considering it’s so yummy and good for you at the same day. What I’m talking about are the Diamond bottles of flavored almonds. They come in a Vanilla flavored variety, a Cinnamon Sugar, and plain old, sea salt variety.
They are all delicious, and whether you mix them, voila you have sweet and salty! They’re all low fat, high fiber, and they dish a generous amount of omega 3 fatty acids, which are terrific for weight loss and weight maintenance, and they are relatively low in calories for a nut. They are not fried or cooked in oil, so they’re natural, beside the coating on them which is minimal. A terrific way to get protein, fiber, omega 3’s and a great flavor for your diet!
