I’ve been known to crave a burger now and again. No I’m not talking about a turkey burger or a veggie burger, not that those aren’t tasty, but I’m talking about a big fat juicy beef burger! However, as I get older the harder it is to lose those extra pounds and maintain a healthy diet. So what’s a girl to do? Well I found it! I am an avid researcher of information and I will check out several sources to verify legitimacy. Here is a list of burgers that for sure sound tempting but are packed full of unnecessary calories, but the good thing is for every "not so healthy for you" burger that's listed, there is a better alternative suggested at the same restaurant!
