mcdonalds

when im in a hurry or got munchies
everything is so good
but about a month ago i started a lil experiment
for myself.i try to cut back on take-out and started
making all my own meals.this is a lot of work.
in about three 1/2 weeks i lost 12 lbs and i feel
quicker and faster physically and mentally
the salt levels in take out is crazy high
and the fat is unbelievable.
im still gonna eat whatever i want just only one day a week
be careful cuz you are what you eat

Congrats on the weight loss!
I get on kicks when all I do is eat fast food. You can DEFINATELY tell you feel better when eating at home/healthy... and when your jeans are a little big around your waist. :) Fast food is the devil.
But getting fast food is soooo much easier than cooking.. and with me being in college it's just too time consuming to cook a meal. BUT.. over the last month or so, I dramatically cut out fast food, except for Subway or this local joint Black Bear.. (it's kinda a hippy restaurant). Subway is just bad with all that damn bread.. but it's good.
You are what you eat.. except for those people that have a fast metabolism and can eat whatever they want and not gain a pound... but I always tell myself that karma will catch up with them when they're older. lol :D

Thats true. the more I eat healthy the less I want to eat fastfood. I havnt eaten fastfood in months. I still get chinese takeout once in awhile though. I also find it just makes me feel better all around when I eat healthy homecooked meals. It's more satisfying.

I eat so healthily up until I finish work and go home. Every day my lunch consists of a huge salad and some grilled fish or chicken and I always eat breakfast but it all turns bad when I get home and have a joint. I can eat 30 pounds worth of shopping in 1 night - its really bad. I'm terrible when it comes to chocolate.
The other morning I woke up at 5am thirsty, stumbled through to the kitchen, ate a WHOLE easter egg in about 20 seconds and went back to bed. I can eat chocolate at any time of the day in any amount.
I get a chinese once a week, though I usually order king prawns which arent bad for you.
Just started the gym 2 weeks ago and already feel firmer and fitter :)
I like that food too, i LOVE maccy d's

I eat out 2-3 times a week. Every Wednesday I meet my wife for lunch and we usually just eat in her company's cafeteria. Their food is as good as any resturaunt and about 1/3 of the price.
We do most of our grocery shopping at this big Chinese grocery that gives you back 10% (of what you spend on groceries) in coupons for their deli/restaurant. So, on the night we do our grocery shopping we'll eat there. The food is actually pretty good, it saves a ton of time, and with the coupons we usually end up eating for free.
I love to cook though, actually wanted to be a chef at one time, so I prefer to eat at home whenever possible.

We eat out way too much. But with my wife and I both having busy careers cooking takes time we just don't seem to have.
i might go out to eat once or twice a month. My mom loves to cook and is damn good at it too.:)

....I eat out about 5-6 times a week. I guess I have a really fast metabolism because I've not gained any wait yet. Should I be ashamed?

Both my parents are pretty big, they're on diets. I guess I really should think twice about eating fast food, but it's so easy to grab a bite when I'm in a hurry.

I cut myself off completely from the fast foods because it wasnt healthy at all and getting something at home is usually cheaper. I think I'm going on around a year or so w/o the fast food, still goin strong. I have felt so much better ever since, and notice that I dont get sick as much and what not.
But wendy's is really good from what i remember.

You're like that too!?! I cannot eat homecooked meals that are not made in my house, it's weird. I don't trust the people making it or what they're using to make it for some weird ass reason.
Oh, and I eat out probably two or three times a month.

i honestly think that fast food has destroyed a relationship i had, all we would do is sit around and watch movies at her parents house, i had a job but she was sitting around the house all day, so of course we would always go out to get food when we got a new movie, and we usually picked a fast food place cause its easy and fast.
so after weeks and weeks of doing this every night or like 4-5 days a week, and we were both incredably thin, she only weighed 120lbs at most and shes like 5'5 or something, so we both looked fine (except the pimples, and yes if you eat fat and grease and sugar, it tends to give most people more zits than usual), i was only like 215 at the most and im 6'2 so i was still pretty skinny.
but we both kept getting crappier mood swings and we both felt like crap. and we had less and less energy until it was like we didnt want to be with eachother anymore cause it wasnt fun, except for the sex, but thats the reason we got back together after we broke up heh.

Oh and lately ive been using campusfood.com, its so fucking easy to order food, so i often find myself ordering food from there twice or 3 times a week. but i usual get pita's or a salad, or chinese food. every once in a while i'll get a pizza if i have friends over.

think again! i need big portions cause im a big dude (not really but i eat like a sumo wrestler) so at wendy's their biggest burger is the tripple stack, and it ALWAYS comes dripping with grease and oil and nasty ass special sause. their fries are okay, and their milkshakes aren't bad but anything in the actual food department sucks.

but I almost positive that the myth that fast food gives up pimples is false. It has to do with your hormones and stress levels.

bizzle, you need to go to Carl's Jr. (sometimes called Hardee's) and get their 6 dollar guacamole and bacon burger, and XL Crisscut fries.
you'll thank me for making you experience it at least once before you die.

I used to go Burger King once a week and get the biggest, fattest burger they did - the XL Bacon Double Cheeseburger Meal (supersize). For a fiver its actually a pretty decent meal, but that thing must have enough fat and salt in it to last a family of Ethiopians a month.
Now I have one a month, if that, and to be honest the only difference I feel is that Im hungrier than before.

its good to be hungry
your brain functions better when its in need
after a big meal you are good for nothing

Damn. I wish I didn't eat out as much as we do, but with work, part-time school at night, and a 16 month old, we eat out daily. Usually an IC Mocha from Panera in the morning (basically a coffee shake) and an apple. Lunch is various fast food places. Dinner is usually at home, except the weekend when about every meal is in a restaraunt. Needless to say, I went from weighing 165 when we got married 12 years ago, to 245 now. That and the money we spend on eating out could fund the military of a third world dictator.
The point of all my ramblings? Don't start eating out.
