Lose Weight By Stopping At Mcdonald's Once A Week



Recommended Posts

I walk to Redbox to drop off my movies at least once a week. Since McDonald's are everywhere you can usually find one or two that make a nice, long walk with a destination and purpose.

I don't always pick my movies up that way, because different locations have different selections, but it's a good way to use McDonald's in a positive way.

I usually get their mini side salad.... It's delicious and definately healthy enough after your walk.... Enjoy :)

Nothing at McDonald's is healthy. We should never be going there and eating or drinking anything. It is pure garbage foul food!

If it's only been a month since your surgery, what on earth can you even eat at McDonald's? I can't even eat bread. I just don't understand!!

I thought the post was about renting RedBox movies at the McDonald's and walking there to pick up and returning them was a healthy thing.

Maybe it is the benadryl kicking in and I misunderstood ;-).

OP can you please clarify??/

Sleeve Dude can you clarify?I was thinking that is a great idea but other peoples' responses have thrown me.... The only thing you are getting at McDonald's is movies right? Either way I will use the idea for CVS or Walgreens since they are everywhere near my house:)

I don't think the op was eating there, just picking up videos. But there are red boxes in most grocery stores, why even go near a Mc D? Not a fan of htier foor, or the way it smells, and I am not even sleeved yet.

Just me, but I have spent enough time & money at McDonald's ( with 2 kids) to think I have earned a lifetime pass to use their bathrooms. LOL, BUT because I consider my association with food unhealthy, will be avoiding it like an alcoholic should be avoiding a bar!

He is talking about picking up and dropping off movies at the Redbox in front of McDonald's. Not eating there.

Come on people....

What he said.

Anywhere with a Redbox is fine, just walk to and from there to pick up and/or drop off your movie.

If you know of another way to rent new release HD movies for USD1.50-ish I'd love to hear about it.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
