Here are lunch meals that are representative of what I eat, with their calories. The calorie counts come from the restaurants' own web sites, and at-home foods are based on this calorie site.
At McDonalds, I’ll eat 2 hamburgers, or 10 nuggets, with medium fries and drink (with refill). That’s 1390 to 1430 calories.
At Wendy’s, I’ll get a taco salad and drink (with refill) or single burger meal (with fries, and drink refill) That’s 640 for the taco salad meal, or 1080 for the single burger meal.
At Taco Bell, I’ll either get a 7-layer burrito with two taco supremes, or a nachos bell grande with taco supreme, or other similar combination. The range (including drink refill) is about 1300 to 1400.
If I have two PB&J sandwiches, pretzels or fritos, piece of fruit, and can of soda, that’s still 1200 calories. (drink water, drop to one sandwich but add second piece of fruit or a vegetable would make it about 700)
Diet shake, piece of fruit and some crackers: 420
Coffee (black) has no calories! And only 50 if you ad cream/sugar. Of course, coffee has other problems…
