If you’re stuck and you have to eat in a fast food restaurant you can eat healthy. McDonald’s is the most difficult place for most to do that; Arby’s is the easiest.
Portion control.
It’s true that McDonald’s has dropped its super sizes. But fast food is still driven by the conviction that consumers want value for money. More often than not, meals remain two to three times the size of recommended portions.
Many are eating in their car or in front of the TV, and they’re not paying attention to how much you’re eating. Mindless eating doesn’t cut it with fast food.

Most fast food chains declare the nutritional facts about their products on their Web sites. There you’ll find fat grams and total calories, plus the presence and quantity of trans fatty acids, cholesterol, sodium, fiber, sugars, etc. Some Web sites allow you to “build a meal,” then display a nutritional breakdown of your choices. The results may surprise you; and will certainly help educate you.
A long way to go? Many nutritionists maintain a cynical outlook on the fast food industry. They point out that while companies have certainly added healthier options, they haven’t removed the junk food.
Fast food is what it is. It’s not a healthy variety of foods. McDonald’s and Wendy’s don’t want to lose their market share to fad diets so they’re promoting low-carb, healthier choices. People don’t go to McDonald’s to eat a salad. Fast food companies, although they have contributed to America’s obesity epidemic, are not the answer to it. That’s up to you. Look to Cortisyn for help.
