    It's not Mcdonalds fault that Americans are lazy slobs who do not give a shit about proper nutrition.

    Yes. I used to be a skinny guy before coming here.
    At first, it will be hard and you will lose weight. But then...oh, baby! :D

    There are many reasons for that to happen, but I can't see why Mc Donalds should be blamed.

    They are not forcing anybody to eat their food, and it's known that it's not healthy.

    Maybe kids shouldn't be allowed in without the parents' consent, but I can't see any other issues.

    And in fact, McDs are spreading out all over the world, so it's not just the Americans.

    There's a lot more to that...

    I do not blame Mcdonalds either, however in other countries McDonalds is a bit different. Not only as a part of the eating habits, as it's mostly americanized foods with a different mix for the host country. The oils are also different in most other countries than the US. I've read many articles on the differences in foods from McDonalds and other fast food places in the US compared to in Europe, etc.

    It's crap food, you eat it all the time w/o exercise and you'll become what you eat ;) Unless you've got one hell of a metabolism.

    I don't think it's good whatever the exercise you do.

    Just make it very very exceptional if you really like it!

    I know some friends who eat anything (and I mean anything) and are still lean. They must have great metabolism.
