Fatty fat Mc Fat, fat! loses weight

Wait, do I hear a TopGun saying comming on?

*coughbullcough*

[Peegee]

The majority of my diet has been from McD's for the past two months.

I am still 10-12% body fat, still 140 lbs.

McD's isn't sufficient for a body builder, and isn't good food for losing weight because if you ate say 1000 calories of McD's a day you'd barely get any eating done, plus you'd eat too much fat.

But McD's won't make me fat. I don't worry about other people.

Calories in vs. Calories out.

You could eat 1500 calories a day of McDonalds, or eat 1500 calories of a block of lard for all it matters (not that there is a lot of difference with the two), and still lose weight. If you exceed your energy, you will lose weight.

There are a few questions to ask this woman though:

1. Do you wake up every morning feeling like ? I can bet they do
2. How many of those lbs burnt was fat? I would say not much

That's only if you eat the fitness food's, not the fatty hamburgers.

The day McD helps me loses weight is the day obesity stops being a problem for all.

[DMKA]

It's nothing new.

That's only if you eat the fitness food's, not the fatty hamburgers.

There was an article in the Metro about a guy who lost so-many stone by eating a diet consisting mostly of Big Macs. According to him, it was the fries you have to be careful of.

I'm with Proghetto Unne on this one.

[Jimsour]

It's not just the fries. The fries are terrible period but it does not make the burgers much better. There is no nutritional value, and it's just empty calories the body has no use for..

If you notice, she is still fat after 37 pounds. 37 pounds is a lot of weight, it's almost 3 stone, a person on a proper diet with plenty of good food and working out, would begin to see more vascularity after losing 37 pounds. She's just going to shrint into a smaller person, still fat, still looking the same.

[Loony BoB]

The guy I read about in the Metro seemed a fairly normal size.

[Jimsour]

Did he pose with his shirt on or off?

Also, as far as health goes, I doubt he was getting any proper amounts of amino acids, vitamins, minerals..etc. McDonalds meat does not count as meat, it's more like newspaper

[Loony BoB]

I don't think it's a healthy thing to do, eating only McDonalds. But if you eat at one place all your life, you're more than likely going to be missing out on something. I wouldn't live off just ham sandwiches, either. I'm just saying that McDonalds itself isn't that bad. There are other things in this world that are equally bad for your health if not worse.

I can't remember if his shirt was on or off though. But he looked to have halved his physical size.

[Jimsour]

You're right. There are a lot more things that are just as bad if not worse, like smoking, drinking, but it still doesn't mean it's any good in the end. McDonalds is the very worst of the fast food I would say, I'd even prefere KFC over McDonalds.

Either way it's something I'll never try and I would advise others also not to try it, as it'll not only cause complications earlier with the bad health, but it's just a bad idea in the first place, not to mention costly.

[Rye]

McDonalds really doesn't get me fat, as I have it once (well, it or Wendy's) a week, nevermore.

[Shadow Nexus]

Um...I just don't understand how people can actually eat those things, but if the lady can loose weight, well, good for her.

By the way, Unne, the fact you don't get fat means nothing. It could have to do with metabolism, some people get fat easily, some get strong easily, etc. And some do not. But the fact you may not be fat does not mean you are not full of calories.

[Peegee]

People should start realising I'm actually PG...but whatever.

I'm not full of calories...whatever that means. And yes it has a lot to do with my metabolism, but seeing as I exercise very little, I *shouldn't* have a good metabolism at all.

But I do. It's wacky that way.

In any case, I wanted to point out that yes, if you go on the McD's diet you'll lose all your muscle and weigh less but be fat. It's what we call 'skinny fat', and what that Jared person of Subway fame looks like naked: fat.

Which is even more disgusting imho.

You can lose weight with the McD's diet but no way can it substitute the diet needed to exercise properly.
