At that point, I had managed 28.2 MPG doing speed limit on the highway. Well...truth be told, it hasn’t been that good since. |

I wrote off all of the fast food stuff, including bread and sugar in January 2020. Down 53lbs for my troubles. Best decision I ever made for myself. I haven’t held to the no bread/sugar militantly...I’ve had a few cheats along the way...doing the lifestyle change as an overall change...not a diet fad I rescind on in the next few months. I’ve donated all of my “fat” clothes. No going back.
Down 10” in my waist, went from having to stretch a XXL shirt down to a comfortable large(more weight to lose from the waist up), and feel better than I did as a young man. Once again, best decision I’ve ever made for myself. |

Fast food can be OK if you choose carefully. For example, a Wendy's Baconator served in a lettuce wrap instead of a bun and without any sugary condiments isn't too terrible. And their salads aren't bad either as long as you skip the sugar-coated pecans and the sugary dressing.

Back when I used to work in an office with other people the company would sometimes buy us lunch, and that lunch would inevitably come from some fast food place. I became very adept at picking the least evil items on the menu.

As do I. When a group from the office goes out for lunch and I join them, I look for the better health choices. Not always fun, but I save my calories for things I truly enjoy.
