Oh no, you didn't!!! Bad Habits Part 1

Welcome to my "Oh no you didn't!! Bad Habits" section where I give examples of my previous horrible habits that made me the way I was.

Bad Habit #1: Eating Fast Food

I know everyone knows that fast food is bad. I knew it was bad as well, what I had no clue of was the amount of calories I was taking in every time I ordered fast food. I'll give you two of my typical fast food dinner menus. I ate the particular meals shown below at least twice a week. I would eat fast food at least 4-5 times a week.

I) Wendy's

a) Baconator Burger: 970 calories
b) Fries (Large): 500 calories
c) Chicken Nuggets (4): 180 calories
d) Barbecue Sauce: 50 calories
e) Ketchup packets (5): 75 calories

Total Calories: 1,775 calories


II) Burger King

a) Italian International Chicken Sandwich: 710 calories (approx)
b) Large Fries: 500 calories
c) Large Onion Rings: 500 calories
d) Ketchup packets (4): 60 calories

Total Calories: 1,770 Calories


One of the first things I learned when I started keeping track of all I ate, boy was I eating a lot of calories!! An average of 4,200 calories a day to be more precise.

  1. y si le añadimos el refresco.... nos pegamos un tiro! tal vez si en todos lados enseñaran explícitamente el total de calorías de todo los hábitos fueran otros. El refresco yo lo dejé hace años pero te digo, no fue nada fácil, tuve síndrome de retirada, todos los síntomas que nunca imaginé...
