That's too much cheeseburger for me! It would make my stomach hurt eating that much.
 
looks fattening, but nah I won't eat all of that, id throw the leftover away or save it. Most of the time left over burgers get old fast and don't taste as good as cooked orginally.

Woman Loses 33 lbs. Eating McDonald's

"Super Size Me," the Oscar-nominated documentary by Morgan Spurlock that showed the inherent health dangers of eating too much fast food, angered Henderson, N.C. resident Merab Morgan so much she decided to prove it wrong. Like Spurlock, she decided to eat nothing but McDonald's food for 90 days. Unlike Spurlock, she limited herself to 1,400 calories a day.

The results? By day 67 she had lost 33 pounds, reports the Raleigh News & Observer. Morgan is 5 feet, 9 inches tall and now weighs about 195 pounds. She hopes to lose between 40 and 60 pounds. Her dress size dropped from a 22 or 24 to a 15. She says she feels great, despite other people worrying about the effects of Sausage Burritos and Filet-O-Fish sandwiches on her cholesterol.


Morgan calls it the "poor man's diet," since it costs just $9 to $11 a day for three meals. It's also a big time-saver since she can purchase and eat each meal in about five minutes. Some days she buys all three meals at once and then eats when she gets hungry.


Needless to say, health experts are horrified. Barry Popkin, director of the Interdisciplinary Obesity Center at University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and a professor of nutrition and public health, told the News & Observer that eating nothing but McDonald's is not healthy since it will not provide needed vitamins, minerals, fiber and dairy. The only reason Morgan is losing weight is because she's limiting herself to 1,400 calories daily. "She's created, for her lifestyle, a very smart diet," Popkin explained to News & Observer reporter Vicki Cheng. "The moral of the story for every person is, you've got to work out a plan that fits your lifestyle. I really admire her restraint. The problem is, it's a lifetime issue."

Brilliant! You just proved what we know already. It's not what we eat, but how much of it, that causes weight gain. One must limit the total number of calories in order to lose desired weight. By limiting her intake to 1400 calories a day, she probably lost somewhere in the neighborhood of 1ib a day.

I'm a happy camper now! :wiggle:

No. Fast food makes me sick. I don't order from McDs at all. I prefer to order a salad from Wendy's if I order fast food at all.
 
Your way off the line!!! Where is so called "2nd hand cheeseburger"? Nobody can get cancer or sick by just sitting next to somebody eating cheezburger WHILE you can get lung cancer by sitting next to smoker! I think you need to seek pyschartic to get your logic check to ensure they match to the reality.

Oh boy ....RS need a huge dose of reality check! You cant get it from sitting next to someone gulping down a cheeseburger.

If I were ya, I would :hitit:
 
Yea! PLUS, suppose we outlaw the cheeseburgers, I can assure all of you that more household stove and grills will even more busier making cheeseburgers, what good is outlawing them?

So, RS use your own head and learn "Cause and effect" when it comes to making new laws. We have 2 much laws already, and we NEED to save space for realistic and good laws! The more stupid laws, the more confuse it would be. So STFU!

Smoking laws are in place now. You can no longer smoke in public cause anyone lights up a cigarette in mcdonalds the manager can call the police.Same like resteraunts and bars and now bowling alleys. If you light up the manager can tell you put it out if you dont the police will arrest you.

The police won't arrest you. Most likely, the manager might ask the person to leave.

Yeah what happens if they dont? I seen a person at the stadium refused to put out his cigar and ushers told him he has to leave and he refused.And next the police came and grabbed him handcuffed him and escorting him from the stadium.
