Seems weird she is waiting 90 days to start cooking right at home, but won't she still be "busy" then, too?

I guess if you eat less calories and the right foods for your particular lifestyle, it doesn't matter where you eat.

I mean, you can eat fruit cups all day for 90 days and lose weight, all right.

Funny thing is I once thought about this...If I spend 10 bucks a day on take out and don't ever shop, I am proabbly spending less than if i went food shopping in a week. Even with that, I imagined the salads and Atkins friendlier foods I coud get for the price. Just add water, huh??

Well, she's active, she's a painter and she said

"I just stayed anywhere between 1,200 and 1,400 calories a day," she said.

I don't doubt she could loose weight. I could proabaly lose weight eating 1,200 calories a day of just chocolate, but I'd be hungry all the time and it would suck. But I guess if you ate Micky D's for every meal for that long you would lose your appetite anyway, I would.

Sounds like she is angling for a "Jared" type promotion deal to me.

I eat at Mcdonalds sometimes too!!! they have the salads, but my favorite is a big mac!!! ha ha!!! I like to keep a package of low carb tortillas (4 carbs each) on hand for these kinds of emergencies where my kids HAVE TO have a happy meal. I dump all the big mac contents into my tortilla and I get that BIG MAC taste w/out the big mac carbs......IT'S GREAT!!!

That's why she did it. She said she wanted to disprove him, she said that it was poppycock that a person couldn't eat at Mickey D's and be healthy and it was wrong for him to insinuate that people who eat there didn't have enough sense or self control not to go hog wild and order super sized everything. She says that people can eat there and make good choices, and she hoped someone would be interested in her side of the story. In other words, she's looking for $$$!
