A Fat Loss Coach Shares What To Order At Chick-fil-A For A High-Protein, Low-Calorie Treat For Weight Loss: ‘Perfect’

Fast food often gets a bad reputation when it comes to health and nutrition, but with the right choices, it’s possible to enjoy a meal that aligns with your weight loss goals. Chick-fil-A, known for its quality ingredients and customer service, offers several menu options that are both high in protein and low in calories. These meals can help you stay on track with your diet without sacrificing taste or convenience.

TikTok creator Josh New, MS, RD, CSSD, CSCS, and who has over 249K followers on the app, shared a unique Chick-fil-A order that has 35 grams of protein and 540 calories!

New says he orders a grilled chicken club sandwich, but he takes the buns out to save 210 calories. He tosses the buns, then puts the remaining chicken and toppings back in the bag. He drizzles the sweet and spicy Sriracha sauce into the bag and shakes it well.

This is where things take an interesting turn. New takes another sweet and spicy Sriracha sauce and drizzles it over a small cup of Chick-fil-A’s soft serve ice cream!

“This is the ultimate fast food combo,” he says.

The grilled chicken provides a good source of lean protein, which is essential for maintaining muscle mass and promoting satiety, both of which are important for weight loss. Plus, the use of the sweet and spicy Sriracha sauce adds flavor without adding a significant number of calories, especially when used in moderation.

And removing the buns is a simple but effective way to cut down on calories while still enjoying the protein-rich chicken and toppings.

The inclusion of Chick-fil-A’s soft serve ice cream, even with the sauce, does add extra sugar and calories that might not align with a strict weight-loss plan, but after ditching the buns, there’s room to enjoy your favorite desserts without feeling restricted. While it’s a creative and tasty addition, this part of the meal could be seen as a treat rather than a regular part of your order.

Enjoying this unique high-protein yet low-calorie combination occasionally can be part of a balanced approach!
