Attention Livestock

The Rains County Sheriff’s

We are receiving several

these calls we have to respond,

many are out.
So, please check on and keep
your fences in good shape. If
you own cattle, please con-
tact the Rains County sher-

on where your livestock are
located, the description of the
livestock, and contact numbers
so someone can be reached in
regards to the livestock being
out.

Healthy Bytes
by Shantll Wallace, B.S., CPT
Nutritionist and Certified Personal Trainer
Fast-food joints have become a staple to our American way of
life. With the hectic, fast-paced schedules we lead, sometimes fast
food is our only option. So, if we must zoom through the drive thru
for a meal, why not make it as nutritious as possible. One of the best
ways to learn about more healthful food choices from a particular
fast-food establishment is to navigate its particular website. Many
places have nutrition information available for all the items on the
menu, while others may only provide information about a select few
food choices. No matter what items are listed on the nutrition guide,
rest assured you will gain valuable nutrition knowledge about which
foods are smart choices and which should remain wrapped up in
their greasy, foil wrappers.
Let’s take a lobk at some of the most common fast-food res-
taurants:
McDonald’s: Yes, really. McDonald’s now offers many nutri-
tious food items on its menu. Of course, we are not talking about
the Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese or the colossal size fries.
Instead, the Golden Arches offers many nutrient packed salads that
your taste buds will surely fancy. Just make sure you go with a low-
calorie dressing. At McDonald's you can also order a grilled chicken
sandwich and ask to substitute higher fat dressings like mayonnaise
with a healthier alternative like mustard.
Taco Bell: With so many little, cheap food items on the menu
it is easy to stack up several fat-laden choices. Instead of a Nachos
Bell Grande, opt for a delicious Fresco Style taco. A grilled steak
taco ordered Fresco Style has about 170 calories, while the Nachos
Bell Grande has a walloping 780 calories!
Subway: So many choices! Subway has a variety of nutritious
subs on their menu, as well as many delicious salads. Try sticking to
the smaller 6" sub for a meal, and go for something like the turkey
breast, oven roasted chicken breast, or even a Subway Club. Try to
avoid the heavy meatball sub or Italian BMT (these are high in fat).
Did you know that Subway is even a sponsor of the American Heart
Association Heart Walk!
Pizza Hut: Okay, I know what you are saying: “The only thing
they serve at Pizza Hut is PIZZA! How can that be healthy?” Well,
Pizza Hut actually offers a Fit’n’Delicious menu that allows you to
pick your toppings to make a pizza that is nutritious for you. Stick
with the vegetable toppings, chicken, or ham. Their lower calorie
option diced chicken, red onion, and green pepper pizza has only
160 calories per slice on a large thin crust pizza. Remember not to
go overboard on the portion sizes; try sticking with two slices and
a side salad.
You are sure to find a healthy food option at almost any fast-
food restaurant you stop by. While it may take a little effort to seek
out the healthier choices and a little willpower to choose them, your •
body will definitely thank you!
