    Honestly, is it ever okay?
    Honestly, is it ever okay to eat fast food or should you just avoid it all together?

    By fast food I mean deep-fried foods such as onion rings, fries, ext

    How much fat, calories, sodium, ext, are in lets say 1 cup of fries, or onion rings?

    It depends where you get it I think.
    The fast food places are required to give you a pamphlet with all that info if you ask.
    I try eating home cooked meals as much as possible but I think its fine to 'treat' yourself occasionally. The problem is many people make fast food their normal diet.

    Is it ever okay, I will say yes. The question for you is how often do you think is okay.

    I would say once a month is a good measure of okay. Although I would say most do not follow that.

    My Pop Pop used to say "you only live once- might as well eat than starve yourself!".

    Now, I don't think you need to go to McDees every day. But if your like me and you hit the gym and are pretty constant on eating healthy then I think you deserve that delicious yummilicious food once a week.

    Yeap. Take a big ole bite once a week or every other weekend.

    That is just my opinion!

    I like that suggestion a lot better, once a week. That is if your living an active lifestyle.

    Just be careful, if you haven't had fast food for a while your tummy might not like. Be close to a bathroom.
