Your fast food habits due to seeing Supersize Me?

Just watched it the other night and I saw a few things about it that I found to be unrealistic, such as him sitting on tour the whole way through the project and getting minimal exercise.

Aside from that though I have noticed that I am not as drawn towards fast food as the dinner option of choice anymore, and have begun cooking at home and picking what I cook a bit more carefully.

I still love my McD's but its funny how a movie can have an impact like that. My daughters who used to always ask for it won't even consider going to Mc Donalds now...I am sure that will pass though.

I changed before that movie came out. I still eat fast food, but not as much as before. It's more having to do with being a fatty.

I started eating heathier a couple years ago. I stopped drinking soda so much, and only eat fast food when I have a real craving, which is maybe once a month. I might get some today h:

But I have not watched Super Sized yet.

i still like fast food, but there comes a point where you look at yourself in the mirror and really wonder about your eating habbits.

Yeah I started changing my habits a while ago but after seeing that I realized it was even more important to do so. It just kind of put it in my face a little more it was always just an easy out and now I don't see it that way so much anymore.

I had McD for dinner 2 times last week. Each time I got Large. There is no more supersize, fuggin stupid movie! It was a better value too

While I have not watched it, I will watch it in the near future. I doubt it will change my mind.

I will just keep up my exercise routine

Yes fuggin Will 40 pull ups!

The McD in Walmart at Union Landing in Union City has supersize.

I only eat fast food with friends or if I have a huge craving.
