How often do you indulge in fast food? Mcdonalds,Burger King etc? I used to rarely eat it until I got married years ago - my husband gets it fairly often - now i have it anywhere from 2-5 times a month! When pregnant I told myself and my husband that I didn't want my little one havin it - it constipates and is so bad for him! That changed! LOL. Luckily he gets happy meals and very rarely finishes it - so excited by the toy! What about yu and your family?

Once in a while I do indulge but not very often.....they have lost some of their appeal for me....the only one I really love anymore is Taco John's.....a fast food Mexican place...love their food.

Never heard of it - must be a good place. In MD was a fast food restaraunt called Baus Haus Fresh - not sure of spelling - fast in time but made from fresh ingredients. Yummy.Before I met my husband I rarely had it and made me sick to my tummy. Now I'm used to it. My husband has started to just get food for himself and my little one because I told him I want to eat healthy again. I get irritated because I want some, then grateful.

I rarely ever go through a drive through. The only time i will do this is on the weekend when im out running errands and doing things with my mom. I don't find the food very tasting and good at all, so im not to big on eating at the fast food restaurants, but i will get food delivered to the house. If i do go through a drive through i do get the happy meals or kids meals because it isn't so much to eat and i barely can finish that as it is, im not a very big person at all and can't sit and it a whole meal as i can eat a little hear and there.

Eating little meals hear and there is sooooooooooo good for the metabolism and body - easier for us to digest. What do you order to be delivered? Do you mainly cook from scratch? Sometimes to save time I will get frozen meals for myself - healthy choice or weight watchers and even these I know are bad. High in preservatives and other chemicals and of course, sodium.

I get fast food mainly because it is "fast food" if you know what I mean. The service is fast and is convenient when you are in a rush, but keep in mind that these things are really bad for you. Don't eat too much. The amount of times I eat this varies depending on if I need the convenience.

I agree about eating it too much, Iamgood. I used to have it 2-4 times a year but now, as I say in my discussion starter, I now have it at least two times a month! Now I try to order a happy meal so I can give the toy to my little one or share with him. There is not only restaraunts but processed foods from the grocery store - most don't prepare from scratch anymore. Even weight watchers and healthy choice frozen meals are made with preservatives and other chemicals very bad for us as well as high sodium. So, how much do you suppose you eat in a month - ball park? 1-5 times - 2-3 times a week or a month?
