There’s no need to restrict yourself from getting fast food when you find yourself in a time crunch or traveling in the car just because you’re on a wellness journey. This is a great guide to have on hand when you are planning a vacation or a family road trip and find yourself having to stop for fast food. 

It’s easy to plan ahead by using the WW app, iTrackBites app or My Fitness Pal to search for fast food options that gives you the Smart Points values and/or calories of various menu items. Planning ahead and knowing the point values of the menu items will allow you to make good fast food choices.

Here are a few of my favorite low point fast-food restaurants and some low point menu items that you may find useful during your wellness journey. 

The Smart Point values are for the current MyWW program.

    If the WW app is correct if you only used half a packet of dressing, then the McDonald’s Bacon Ranch Salad with grilled chicken is only 5 points and with the breaded chicken is 6 points. The thing is that McDonald’s doesn’t have that salad on the menu board for some reason, but you can ask for it and 9 times out of 10 they have it. The main difference between the two salads is the little packet that they give you with the dressing and stuff.

    This is super helpful! Thank you so much for putting it together. Regarding the Panda Express veggie egg roll…do you know if the points are per egg roll or per order (I think you get 3 in an order?)

      Hi Mary,

      You’re very welcome. Glad you find it helpful.

      Yes, so according to the ww app the Panda Express egg rolls are 3 point per roll (not per serving.)

      Hope that helps!!
      Thanks so much,

    Hey Linds! Just an FYI- I eat Wendy’s large chili at least once a week and the point value per the app is 4, not 5. Thank you so so much for EVERYTHING you do!!!!

      Hi Alyson,

      I know, I eat it quite often myself and it looks like ww may have changed the point value for the large Wendy’s Chili. While I was researching the point values for this post-I went on to the ww app it came up as 5 points now.

      Try it and let me know if you’re getting something different as of right now on your ww app.

      Thank you

        I pulled it up before I posted my comment just to make sure and it came up as 4. I just checked again and it’s still showing as 4 for me.

        Actually, I just realized if you go to the restaurant menu it comes up as 5, but if you type it in, like I have been doing, it comes up as 4. How weird???

          Have you updated your app? Mine changed to 5 points when I updated the app in both spots (typing it in and the restaurant guide)

    I absolutely love the Grilled Chicken Southwest salad from McDonald’s. I always ask for it without the cilantro lime dressing on the chicken and it reduces the points by 2. In my opinion it does not change the taste at all!

    I get the Southwest grilled chicken salad at Chick fila … No cheese. I just love this salad. I usually don’t put the seeds and chruncies on it. I always estimate 2 points, green plan. I usually use OPA salad dressing.
