Questions
Can I eat Wendy's and still lose weight?
Yes. Body weight follows how much you eat in total, not which foods it comes from. A Wendy's meal fits a fat-loss day as long as the rest of the day is sized around it, which is exactly what vopti calculates.
What is the highest-protein option per calorie at Wendy's?
Of the items above, Chicken Tenders (3 pc): 33 g of protein for about 418 kcal.
Where do these numbers come from?
From Wendy's published US nutrition information, per standard serving. Calories are computed from the macros (4 kcal per gram of protein and carbs, 9 per gram of fat), so they can differ from the posted menu figure by a few percent.
