Just saw this movie today, I recommend it to anyone if it's in theaters around you. It's a documentary about this guy (perfectly healthy) who decides to only eat McDonald's food for 30 days, breakfast, lunch, and dinner; nothing he consumes, including liquid, can be bought from any store other than McDonald's. He gets preliminary checkups and blood tests before, during, and after the experiment, and the results are shocking; he gains about 25 pounds, his blood pressure soars, his liver gets filled with fat, and his mental health is generally shot to shit. It's a pretty humorous movie and he really gives a lot of insight into the whole obesity epidemic in America and how kids are getting hooked into it. It's also pretty frightening to imagine how McDonald's affected this guys health, and then to realize that there are many, many Americans that eat almost as much as he did as a regular diet. |

I haven't eaten fast food, at least as a meal, in nearly 3 years... |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
what were his portions like? normal for an adult, or did he gorge himself? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Three square meals a day, for 30 days. Gained lots of weight, got lots of health problems. |

i also heard that whenever he was offered to 'super size' an item, beverage, or gelatanous mass of fatty tissue rapped in stale bread he was required to say yes. btw i love fast food it's delicious because it's covered in things that my body doesn't need, and can't efficiently remove from my system cheers! |

i'm just curious because while i do not argue that mcd's is healthy one cannot dismiss the factor of eating habits and not just what is consumed. for instance, the percentage of mcd's patrons that have their meal supersized is probably much higher than the percentage that really need the extra food. |

although the movie sounds interesting, it's kind of silly. it's kind of obvious that mcdonald's isn't healthy. also, most people don't eat mcdonalds for breakfast lunch and dinner every day. it would be more accurate and realistic if he did something like one meal a day at mcdonald's. |

That is so fucked up.... He'd probably have a fucking hard time regaining his health after all that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The after effects are pretty obvious. There really is a much bigger problem though. McDonalds is only part of it. |

This movie was scary. That is a freaky diet. I enjoyed watching it and i want his girlfriends diet to detox. I want to try her diet to see how better i would feel. I am not a fat but my diet sucks. This movie is motovation to eat better. Good info presented and it made me laugh a couple of times! "Getting the McGirgles...Getting the McSweats....Got the McBrick....some McGas" LOL McDonalds is gross |

|
|

|

neto...yes he is that movie was good...i encourage anyone who isnt satisfied with just that to read "fast food nation" - THAT book will make you feel sick - esp when he goes to new jersey to a lab and looks at how smells and tastes are MADE...yikes i like fast food in moderation...its a guilty pleasure... |
||||||||

|

So what does your diet consist of then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

i'd wake up and eat things like appitizers. Pizza rolls, motz sticks etc etc. That was my worst moment. I didnt really want to dick around in the kitchy... breakfast time was the worst. Regular dinners semi regular lunches. No fruit and hardcore lack of veggies. I dont drink milk. Usually hardcore beer (which i am giving up i decided) and water (to recover) and pepsi with breakfast, lunch and dinner |

super size me is a ghey. |

my two cents: fast food nation and supersize me both cite an American obsession with fast food as the problem with the chronic obesity that's so common there. while it may be the case that there is such an obsession and over-indulgence in this shitefood over there, i think it has an awful lot to do with the amount Americans eat. When anyone from my school took trips over to America, they always came back stunned in disbelief at the size of the portions of food you guys eat. I think when you're bred on that, with it surrounding you, it's obviously going to be difficult to shed the mentality and escape the culture. So you have "morbidly obese" people. I'm not saying they don't pop up in other places, but they do exist, in far, far greater numbers (even when compared to total population) in America than anywhere else. |
||||||||

| |||||||||
|

Yes, more is better in America. It's probably more to do with processed foods, though. A number 1 meal at Mcdonalds isn't really that large, but it's loaded with calories. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But I'm sure you are right. Portions is probably the culprit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I heard that McDonald's now prints the fat info on their wrappers... Anyway, everyone knows that fast food isn't good for you, they just eat it cause its convenient... I personally told my friend that he gets to kick me in the nuts the next time I eat at McDonalds, so... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all the movie did was make me fucking hungry, thats why im a fat bastard :D |
||||||||
|
|

virginpusher...your diet sounds like shit - skip soda that shit is horrible for you...coke is better anyway... eat more vegetables & fruits... ive had 4 oranges in the last two days... the last time i drank a glass of milk as a beverage was about 10 years ago...maybe longer...only soy milk do i drink - i cook with regular milk but thats it... dont give up beer vpush...thats DUMB !!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
coke, as in cocacola, as in better than pepsi... i meant oh yeah - ps - portions in america are fucking huge... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pps - supersize me is about over eating unhealthy food fast food nation is more in depth and more about the creation of the culture |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pepsi > coke any day! also the beer is traveling into a centralized location (my belly) and then it sits there. Due to me being inactive it went from being slender to being a little gut. Not even a cool manly gut but like a skinny kid that drinks too much beer gut. Beer is removed whilest i get healthier. Its the only way! *takes one for the team* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
eat less...drink more...the pounds will shed off...i bet you a million dollars... inactivity is gonna hurt you more than your shitty diet - i have friends who eat garbage but never sit still...and as such are super thin...! |

in one year mcdonalds succesfully gave itself a healthy image after this |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
healthy to who? morons? "im lovin it"...you infer the rest |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
beer led to my lazyness. i could park it at a bar all day. Usually did. No meals because they took up valuable room for drinking and eating usually sobered me up. I have since slowed down quite alot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
weird...drinking makes me run around like a crazy man...i could sit still a lot easier without alcohol than with... it makes me all anxious to experience the drunk in new ways and go "hunting for bigfoot" (def. random drunken adventures that lead to crazy stories) !!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good doc, but a lil' bit exagerated. Look if you eat only sandwich (might be mcdonalds or any other fast-even healthy but fast-food, youu'll have as many health problems as this guy... But still was percuting and funny tho |
||||||||

I loved that guy who eats 5 Big Macs a day. He SO doesn't give a shit about his waistband. And neither does his wife. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well he looks like a rapist from the woods of nowhere...would you care about your waist band? i thought the strangest issue was his liver damage, and mental health - how he was depressed etc then he ate and was euphoric...weird... i would have hated that diet...would have driven me NUTS |

Jesus christ, it's a called a free market. If people are stupid enough to eat themselves to death, let 'em. I don't need some prick legislator deciding how many fucking chips I can buy at once. Viva la Reaganomics baby! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so reaganomics is just another name for libertarianism? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hardly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

swears, I agree, but I do feel the gov needs to regulate what shit goes into food. I don't want as many chemicals in my Big Mac as there are in my Ciggs. Or atleast require full disclosure of what is in the food. Cause they would make hamburgers out of teflon if it was cheaper. This movie really proves that fast food isn't food. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
well, consumers |

Reagan(ism) gave us crack, aspartame and Saddam. And some liberty too, I'm sure. |
