Lose Weight By Stopping At Mcdonald's Once A Week



Recommended Posts

I walk to Redbox to drop off my movies at least once a week. Since McDonald's are everywhere you can usually find one or two that make a nice, long walk with a destination and purpose.

I don't always pick my movies up that way, because different locations have different selections, but it's a good way to use McDonald's in a positive way.

I usually get their mini side salad.... It's delicious and definately healthy enough after your walk.... Enjoy :)

Nothing at McDonald's is healthy. We should never be going there and eating or drinking anything. It is pure garbage foul food!

If it's only been a month since your surgery, what on earth can you even eat at McDonald's? I can't even eat bread. I just don't understand!!

I thought the post was about renting RedBox movies at the McDonald's and walking there to pick up and returning them was a healthy thing.

Maybe it is the benadryl kicking in and I misunderstood ;-).

OP can you please clarify??/

Sleeve Dude can you clarify?I was thinking that is a great idea but other peoples' responses have thrown me.... The only thing you are getting at McDonald's is movies right? Either way I will use the idea for CVS or Walgreens since they are everywhere near my house:)

I don't think the op was eating there, just picking up videos. But there are red boxes in most grocery stores, why even go near a Mc D? Not a fan of htier foor, or the way it smells, and I am not even sleeved yet.

Just me, but I have spent enough time & money at McDonald's ( with 2 kids) to think I have earned a lifetime pass to use their bathrooms. LOL, BUT because I consider my association with food unhealthy, will be avoiding it like an alcoholic should be avoiding a bar!

Fellow nurse! Yes, their bathrooms are a lifesaver for us visiting nurses! Lol ..(as long as they keep them clean)

He is talking about picking up and dropping off movies at the Redbox in front of McDonald's. Not eating there.

Come on people....

What he said.

Anywhere with a Redbox is fine, just walk to and from there to pick up and/or drop off your movie.

People still pick up and drop off movies?

If you know of another way to rent new release HD movies for USD1.50-ish I'd love to hear about it.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
