Health Expert Shares 2 Burger King Weight Loss Orders That Slash Excess Calories And Fat: Grilled Chicken & More

The Whopper (Without Mayo & Cheese)

For those who crave a hearty burger, the Whopper can actually fit into a weight-loss-friendly order with the right modifications. "The whopper gives you flavor and removing mayo and cheese reduces a significant amount of saturated fat and calories while you still get protein from the beef," says Dr. Otulana. He also recommends swapping out fries for a side salad, which adds fiber for longer satiety and helps stabilize blood sugar. And instead of a soda (which comes with a plethora of health risks), water keeps the calorie count low and hydration in check.

The Grilled Chicken Sandwich

If you’re looking for an even leaner option, Dr. Otulana points to the grilled chicken sandwich. "A grilled chicken is leaner and again provides protein," he explains, making it a great choice for those watching their fat intake. Just like with the Whopper, keeping condiments light and choosing healthier sides and drinks can make a big difference. Pairing the sandwich with a salad and water creates a balanced, protein-packed meal that satisfies hunger without loading up on unnecessary calories.

Bottom line

So, there you have it: you don’t have to write off Burger King if you’re trying to lose weight. With a little strategy and the right swaps, both the Whopper and the grilled chicken sandwich can be surprisingly smart choices.

Happy eating!
