Fast Food - Is Any of it Good For You?

By Owen Scott

Fast food is not good for you. Even the healthiest fast food can easily be outdone by preparing some fast and easy meals you can take with you wherever you go. If you do find yourself inside a fast food restaurant, should you eat or not?

Never go without eating. It's actually much worse to skip a meal than to make a good choice at a fast food restaurant. Simply make a good choice, and you'll be okay.

You should always plan ahead. Take the time to think about the next day. Will you be away from home for extended periods of time? If so, prepare some quick and easy meals that you can eat while away from home. Eat a full meal once every 3 hours. Plan accordingly.

Some quick and easy meals that you can take with you are shaker bottles filled with whey protein and ground oats. Add a few baggies of walnuts and you've got some awesome fat burning and muscle building meals. They only take a few minutes to prepare and eat!

Don't forget the veggies too! I quickly cut up some raw veggies like broccoli, cauliflower, green peppers, red peppers, carrots, and cucumbers. Add the veggies and you just can't get a better muscle building and fat burning meal.

If you failed to plan ahead (try not to), you'll need to make the best decisions when you're ordering fast food. Let's say you're at McDonald's, what are you going to order? The french fries are out. Never order or eat french fries. You don't need them. Never order the fatty hamburgers and the white bread buns. That's about the worse combination that's sure to make you fatter.

A better choice would be a chicken salad with about a half pack of ranch dressing. Eat all the veggies in the salad. Don't take them off or order the salad without them. And always order a water. Never order a Coke or anything else. Drink water!

If you know you're going to be eating fast food and have no other choice, get nutrition facts for that restaurant and make a good choice before you go. Then, you won't be tempted to order anything else. It's actually better to check nutrition facts and make yourself a little list at what you can have from certain fast food restaurants. Make sure what you choose fits your meal plan.

Trust me, you DO NOT NEED fast food. Yes, it's quick and easy but so are some of the options I've already given you. You'll get faster results, better results, and you'll feel much better. I went without eating fast food for several years, and I felt much better without the fast food. Eating healthy tastes much better and feels great!

Building muscle and burning fat requires weight lifting and cardiovascular exercise. You need to provide your body with the best fuel possible for those workouts. If you fail to provide your body with great fuel, you'll perform at far lower levels. Eat healthy and you will have high energy levels for pushing yourself in the gym. And that's how you make progress.

Is Subway good for you? It's better than most fast food places, but you can do much better by preparing some quick meals at home. A chicken salad filled with different veggies and a small amount of dressing isn't a bad choice from Subway. Stay away from the rest of the stuff.

It's much easier and cheaper to prepare some quick meals at home. You can prepare most meals in much less time than it takes you to go through a drive through line or wait in a line inside a restaurant. With some planning, you can stop eating unhealthy foods, start eating healthy, and building more muscle and burning more fat. - 17268
