For anyone who was infuriated by the pseudoscience in Supersize Me.

Her best point, IMO, is when she says that the self-appointed Food Police are more interested in controlling other people than in educating anyone about healthy eating and living.

I've decided to eat at Mickey D's today. ;) Have no fear--I'll get something healthy.

Yeah atkins is in essence starving yourself. Its like drinking salt water. Sure you think you're getting enough but your body tells a different story. Your body is only able to process so much protein and fat, and its not a lot. The rest will just pass through your body.

you forget he died fairly young,

that type of eating should be banned ppl who use it are just as bad as the ppl who just eat crap, you think only eating fat and protein is ok?

Go look at your arties in a few months after you go on it.

LIES!!! My dad has proven other wise!! (in the Atkien's diet you can have as much as meat and fat as you want, you just can only have a limited carbs per day. Guess what He has been losing fat dramaticly and he hardly, hardly exercises.

Why?: well when you have low carb diet, you body gets in a different burning process and actauly burns up the meat and fat and all that and fat does not go to fat, it has to be broken down into sugar first. Now Im not saying you should go on a low carb diet, but the eating healthy and the exercising is probally still the best path to go, because then you body will still be able to do more. Also eating healthy could mean less refined food: for exampel white bread is not healthy food, its refined carbohydrates which takes no work for you body to do with, and it hardly can be kept as a long lasting energy source because hwo fast it jumps into sugar, so basicly you body immediately stores it as say fat and then you actauly get hungry again. sooner than if you say you ate whole wheat bread. Now alot of you may deny this, simply because your metabolism is amazing. Oh by the way if you perfer to eath 6 small meals a day, instead of 3 medium meals a day, the 6 small meals a day is actaully better for your metabolism which is a good thing.
Well that is my 2 cents worth.

Calories doesn't mean anything ( well it does but not directly) For example some calories take different type of burning processing and can either be more healthy or less healthy than others. Also some calories just go in and out of your system without your body absorbing anything.

Don't tell that to people who think its society and the evil corporations forcing them to eat their food. You could shatter their psyches if you tell them that they are actually the ones responsible for the problems in their lives.

To be blunt if you are stupid enough to eat it everyday and do little/no exorcise then you deserve to be fat.

As for the whole healthy eating sharade, well, if you over-do it you will become "unhealthy"... don't go for all this fancy anti-macdonaldism and supreme detox diet stuff.. just keep it in moderation and when you become a lil on the plump side just give Maccy Ds a break for a while and take a trip to Subway or something, don't try and sue the place you've been visiting everyday for your entire life because you got fat! The only person to blame for that is you. :P

Just a little anecdote for ya.....
When a friend of mine had a job caring for large cats (Tigers I believe) he would go to the market for livestock (live cows up for slaughter) to choose the best possible meat. He told me that Mc Donald's always chose the sickest and most injured cows to save money.
