It wasn't until i actually started keeping note of how many calories are in everything I was eating did I realise that you don't actually even need to eat a horrendous amount to pile up your calories, if you're eating the wrong things. The one I was most shocked by actually was just how bad McDonalds was, 1100 calories in a medium meal  That's almost your whole days allowance for a woman and you're hungry again like an hour later |
What is even in McDonalds "food"?? We were talking about this the last time we went... you can wolf down a large quarter pounder meal, then you step out the door and you feel like you haven't eaten anything all day! And it's only McDonalds... even other fast food doesn't seem to have that effect.
