Found this article on yahoo and it's actually pretty shocking. I would imagine with the theme of this forum some of us aren't built like greek models. Scroll through the list and see what = what.

For a bit of perspective, think back a bit. For many thousands of years, salting was about the only means of preserving meats. That might have put significantly more salt in the dietary intake.

Take a look at how much sodium you can get as MSG in a Mexican or Chinese restaurant. Best to drink lots of water and lay off the sodas.

True, sailors also used to drink rum because water would get contaminated so they probably took in a bit more of the creature then we do now too. Also take into account thousands of years ago 25 was considered old age.

I was just shocked how bad a Chicken salad sandwich was for yah.

True, but the term 'salad' when used by a fast food chain becomes:

'5 metric tons of partially hydrogenated cottonseed (wait, cotton isn't a vegetable!) oil mixed with milk, egg particulate and a feed store salt lick, lighty drizzled upon three square cms of lettuce residue'

 

I dont live in the US, i thought that it would have been anchovies or something. Personally, i love fast food
I get a Mac Donalds twice a week, normaly chicken strips with a large fries lol. Im 16 and 10.5 stone, never lost or gained weight. Im very healthy and in perfect shape! Eat loads of veggi (but not much fruit).

Ps, I dont each much fruit because when mum buys it, never get eaten and thus rots, then we give that to the pigs or rheas

Got some bad news for you. A lot of the problems with fat food is age related. As an adviser for DeMolay I hang around teens a lot, the amount they eat is legendary. Has to do with metabolism, around 30 or so your body needs about ½ the calories, but the appetite stays the same, so you put on weight, fast.
