Sounds pretty girly to me.


I'm pretty sure Carl's Jr. is just the West Coast version of Hardee's. It's owned by the same company.

Subway is ok....i prefer Quiznos over subway. The Chicken Carbonara sub is the best. As far as bk or McDs goes...bk has better burgers but i like the fries better at McDs

Two words : White Castle. I've eaten it one time in my life and it was the greatest meal ever.
As for BK and McDs, BKs all the way, for many reasons.
Firstly, if I'm eating a burger, I'm probably not in the mood for copious amounts of salad. And If I ask for my burger without something, it won't be on there. They won't put more of it on there to spite me, ala McD.
Secondly, BK is right next to my gym, and I hate protein shakes so it's generally speaking the easiest way to get some protien in me before I hit the gym.
And finally, I stumbled across an extra size that they don't tell you about. I asked for an XL and I stuttered. The rest was history. The burger that I got was the size of a baby elephant - maybe it was.

You're still young Jon (plus you live in Florida). If I still want to indulge in my first love (beer), I need to watch what I eat. Plus the North Eastern Winter months demand that I increase my carb/calorie intake.....I achieve this by consuming mass quantities of life giving beer. :D

i VERY rarely eat at fast food places anymore because of the Fat and everything, but if i had to choose one, id say Burger King simply because, they Broil their Burgers so its a tad bit healthier than McDonalds. but again thats just me.

Expanding to all fast food places, Chipotle is heaven! 1000+ calories of goodness!

Down south, we have a close relative to White Castle called Krystal. I only go there when I'm feeling bad about myself. I say this not because the food is horrible, but it tastes so good, I eat so many of the tiny burgers and then get sick. So, going to Krystal always seems like a good idea on the way there, I always end up regretting it later.

You must be talking about the Steakhouse XT Burger. The XT stands for Xtra(?) Thick, which is also can be translated into heaven on earth.

[quote name='ravensgirlx88' post='130127' date='Jan 15 2009, 10:30 AM']Fast food makes me sick. Literally. Its the ONLY thing I dont eat, and believe me I eat alot.[/quote]



fast food is expensive anyways....
one can only be but sooo hungry.

u can get some pasta, speagtetti sauce and some burger and be set for a good min with 5dollars instead of a combo and mcdonalds.

only time i gain weight eating in a short period of time...like 10lbs in one week is when i'm on vocation eating at a buffet. but then the weight just goes away as i get back home.

but buffets can be the devil IMO. fast food won't gain me weight even when i get filled on it regularly. But getting filled at a buffet regularly can be a problem.

I'm with you. BK does the best everything except chicken. KFC chicken is unparalleled.

I'll eat anything fast-food; I'm a fast-food junkie.

Weird thing is, my metabolism had been so good to me for so many years, that I never put on weight even when I wanted to. It's only just now caught up to me in adulthood. In a rough way, too. lol.

Regardless, when it comes to BK vs. McD's, I'll take either one, but it depends. If I want a "good" fast-food burger of the two, I'll take BK. If I want to be full for the rest of the day (as in, I don't have plans later), I'll take Mickey D's.

I have been so good dieting and cleaning up mine and my family's diet but for the last two weeks all I want is sugar and carbs--its awful! I went to Superfresh yesterday to get dried beans for my sons cell models for school came out with a pie, pound cake, strawberries and coolwhip :angry: I made due with the strawberries and pound cake. :P


The on Hardee's I know of in MD is in Hancock.




Franchise I gain 10lbs standing out side of Carraba's inhaling all the wonderful scents--funny thing is I've never even been in there but it sure smells good.

I went on a diet when I first moved to Florida where I cut out all sugar and flour. I'd go into rages seeing people eating sandwiches.

I just came back from BK, I had the angry whopper and I was disappointed. It was nothing like the commercial, it tasted more like a BBQ whopper with a zesty taste. I really didn't see how it is angry, it was not hot.

You shouldn't diet and moderate at the same time. :lol:

I may change my eating habits, but I'll never call it a diet for fear of instant failure.

[quote name='ravensgirlx88' post='130141' date='Jan 15 2009, 11:36 AM']Im serious! I love food!!! I just dont drink soda or eat fast food, I hardly work out.. I usually just run in the spring/summer but only because I love the weather.

Trust me, drink just water for a week and dont eat fast food. I bet you lose AT LEAST 5 pounds.[/quote]
I have literally the best program. I eat ALL the lean meat I want, and do my weekly program (which, I admit, is pretty intense), and I actually lost weight, then gained pure muscle. I agree with the water, and no fast food thing. I did that in the first place, but my metabolism is slow as hell, and didn't gain as much as my fatty enemies. Can't wait for spring. Football training, means 6-pack is bigger! :) :D
