I literally just ate McDonalds and this topic is making me sad. Then again that's not normal for almost every day of my life. ;)

There is a pretty big difference between going for mcdonalds (or other fast food) every once in a while and basing your entire diet off of it though. (almost) everyone gets fast food sometimes, there's nothing wrong with that. But when someone's entire diet is based around mcdonalds, that's not going to do their health or appearance any favors.
 
I worked at a McD's on and off for 3 years during the summer between college, and I remember looking at the nutrition facts that were on the other side of the paper placemats...and I think the 20 piece nuggets were something over 800 calories and most of it was made of fat and sodium. The fat alone in just that was almost as much as your recommended daily intake. He probably eats the fries with it too. Both the nuggets and fries go into the oil for 3-4 minutes. And everything in that restaurant is pumped with sodium, much like the Hungry Man meals he likes.
Chris is all about getting crappy food quickly and easily, so he doesn't have to cook.

People ate the 20 piece ones by themselves!?

Yep. The 20 piece was actually wicked popular, since it was only a few cents more than the 10 piece. A lot of people ate the whole thing, large fries, and large soda by themselves. A lot of them were teenage boys and heavyweight mothers with equally heavyweight kids. I remember an order going for six 20 piece large meals for one family...that's 120 nuggets...and the family wasn't even that large member wise. Weight wise, yes, they were large.

I sometimes ate McD's on my break, and a 4 or 6 piece made me feel full. I have a small appetite and built thin, but still, 4 little chicken pieces shouldn't make me feel like that. They're just pumped with fat and sodium and it makes you feel like crap. I usually just made my own sandwich and brought it in or got something at Subway or the grocery store in the same plaza. After seeing how the food was stored and made, I didn't really want to eat it. I still can't understand how people can wolf down a 20 piece and still be hungry afterwords.
 
Addiction to the stuff they put in their food has a lot to do with it. I suspect it's likely the same thing with Chris. If Chris tried (read: forced) to go off McDonalds he'd get massive cravings for the stuff.
 
I never got how people could be addicted to McDonald's. It tastes awful, it makes me feel awful, it's overpriced as hell, I don't get how anyone could be addicted to the stuff. I used to be able to stomach it, but I've never really liked it at all. Of all the things I could be addicted to, McDonald's would be the last. It almost seems like an excuse to me. The only way I could understand shoveling big macs down ones throat is because of depression, and I doubt Chris is legitimately depressed.

It is overpriced and the prices have risen over the recent years, with some stuff knocked off the dollar menu. The dollar menu stuff is what makes most people come in, but I guess some people don't realize you can make your own food for cheaper and have more of it for leftovers than it would for your small fry, small coke and McDouble. Some people come in like every day and get those things, and it adds up no matter how cheap they think it really is.

By the way, a McDouble costs something like 10 cents for the store to make.

That's because your brain has learned to enjoy normal, healthy foodstuffs. If someone, like OPL, shovels McD. crap down his throat day after day, the brain becomes wired to the taste of fatty, sugary fast food and begins to enjoy it. Like any taste, it's an acquired taste. Our brain is, in simple terms, a huge learning machine, that's what it is for and does best.

Yeah, but that's true for everything ever sold since the beginning of time. :p
 
In order to get my little sister to get vitamins (she's a picky eater, and can't swallow pills, even though she's 18 now) my mom bought gummy vitamins. They're really good, and my mom and I would use them as well. Maybe Chris would like those.
 
If Chr15 absolutely must have fast food, he ought to consider having vegetable submarine sandwiches at Subway ...

With all the veggies he allegedly "shoves down his throat", I'm sure he just doesn't have room for anymore. :lol:
 
Not that he'd listen to any of us, but if he did even the minimum 15 minutes of exercise per day (it doesn't even have to be strenuous). He would probably feel a lot better mentally.

Last I heard, veggies make Chris "feel green in da face."

Brother, glad to hear you eat your vitamins!

What Chris needs to do is to start following the demandments of Hulkamania. The Hulkster has said it all along, man. Chris needs to train, say his prayers and eat his vitamins. He needs to start being true to himself and true to his country. Chris could be a little Hulkster. Instead, he is a little huckster. Chris has no self discipline, so the chances of him becoming a Hulkamaniac are about the same as the chances of The Brooklyn Brawler defeating the Hulkster for the World Wrestling Federation championship.
 
Were it anyone else I would suggest stopping off at a gym a few times a week when coming back home from work/school but thats hardly likely for him.

Actually.... just tell him that there are plenty of potential gal-pals to be made in a gym and have a VERY patient and tolerant assistant show him the ropes on the machines, ensuring he does not overexert himself or he will just defecate in stress and leave about dang dirty gymnists
