Tony Snow had the guy from Supersize Me on about his experience of gaining twenty five pounds in a month from eating only McDonald's *LOL* I wonder if he only ate the meat what would have happened.

Actually there is somebody doing the same thing only he is losing weight. Instead of gorging on Big Macs and fries, this guy is eating things like chicken salads, scrambled eggs and yogurt parfaits.

The premise behind the movie "Supersize Me" is so silly that I can't believe anybody would waste their money seeing it. Based on your menu choices you could gain or lose weight at any chain restaurant.

Since going on this low-carb lifestyle, I have found the salads at the fast-food chains quite acceptable. Especially the salads at Wendy's. Only I don't order them with any dressing. I keep a bottle of olive oil in the glove compartment of my car when I am on the road so that I can use that instead. For some reason, the fast food places do not offer olive oil as a substitute for dressing which is a shame because olive oil is so good for you.
