1. Protein alone (even with some fat) is not that fattening. But when you combine it with simple carbs (bread, flour, white potatoes) it gets fattening. Zone, Atkins and Paleo all have lots of protein and even fats - but not alot of simple carbs like sugar and flour.
2. Quite fattening - about 6.3g per one 29g chicken wing! It's all the skin that does it...
3. The bbq sauce is what is fattening..not the chicken it self..could be anywhere from 300 calories 500 calories each, depending on the sauce..=)
4. If you have to ask send them to me and I'll make sure to tell you there not fating if it makes you fill better!
5. They can be mainly due to oil and skin. Each chicken wing is about 100 calories. Look at the back of the back.
