i’m just curious as to what you guys think about wings as a cheat meal. every tuesday night i use my cheat meal at a place called buffalo wild wings cuz their wings are only 35 cents that night, getting between 18-20 wings. it’s really filling, and it is very lightly fried, but it’s nonetheless chicken.
this is the only cheat meal i’ve eaten in about 5-6 weeks now, just cuz i don’t have any desire for ice cream or pizza when it comes to a cheat meal. would you guys say flavored very lightly fried wings is a better cheat meal that any of that other stuff?
I thought the idea of a cheat meal was that it’s a gimme. Don’t worry about it. If you’re doing everything else right I don’t think it would fuck you up.
I’ve wondered whether to even consider wings off-diet, since if they’re not breaded, they’re just about zero carb. That said, they’re loaded in oil and saturated fat, are about 9 zillion calories and officially qualify as Greasy Sticks of Death, so low-carb or not they just don’t seem “right” from any dietary perspective.
First of all, fuck yeah BW3’s is one of the greatest places on earth. When i moved to Ohio, i lucked into having one like 3 blocks away from, on sundays i usually call up on sunday for my order, pick it up and then come back to the house to watch football and enjoy my cheat meal.
Yeah I eat tons of chicken wings. Unbreaded and with just tabasco on them, they’re no-carb or low-carb. Of course, I’m a 19 y/o college athlete with a ridiculous metabolism so take my advice with a grain of salt.
Downside of wings:
-Very calorically dense
-Lots of saturated fat
Upside of wings:
-Very calorically dense
-Protein
-Tasty
