    a few weeks ago.

    Along with fries. And chicken wings. And beer*

    (*disclaimer: I eat this kind of stuff in the context of an otherwise healthy and balanced diet most of the time ;)

    You are my hero!

    Not since I was in California this January; it'd be a different story if there were In N Out burgers in the south though :love: . That and I discovered I'm a pretty fantastic cook.

    Just so you know, there are In-N-Out Burger places in Texas.

    Also, I got drunk a few nights ago and had whataburger. But if I barely remember it, it doesn't count, right?

    Texas isn't southern, it's own entity. With delicious tex-mex food. And no, it totally doesn't count if you're smashed haha.

    A few weeks ago I had a Subway Oven Roasted Chicken Breast sub. A few months ago I tried one of the new flat bread wraps from Wendy's that tasted so nasty. Everyone I talked to said they didn't care for them either.

    I had a 6 piece nuggets from McD's on Sunday. I am 100% well aware that they are deep fried beaks and a**holes and sawdust, but I don't care. They're delicious.
    lol....

    The last fast food I had was about sometime last summer (I don't remember the exact date or month). I had gone to an outlet mall with my daughter and we stopped as Wendy's on the way back.

    I bring my lunch to work so cravings at lunch are not a problem for me. No fast food can complete with my cooking.

    I pretty much only eat fast food when traveling and we want something we can eat in the car. Even then we often just grab some nuts or chips at a c-store. If I'm going out to eat I go to a sit down restaurant.

    A few days ago. That reminds me, I need to update my ticker for that pound of me that seems to have magically disappeared. Oh wait, there was nothing magical about it. I ate at a deficit despite having fast food pop up in my diary from time to time.
    Wait a minute...you mean you can actually eat fast food occasionally within the context of a well-rounded diet and still lose weight???

    So I used to be a huge fast food junkie (I had it at least once a day). Since starting on MFP, I haven't had fast food for 45 days (I don't include pizza that I get every now and again, though maybe I should haha).

    It's been really cool to not eat this stuff everyday, and even cooler to realize that I don't think about cheating with the stuff any more.

    ..Though I guess now as I post this, I could go for some Taco Bell :D.

    I think eating breakfast and snacks up before my lunch has really helped curb the cravings, so I don't go into the lunch hour starving and thinking about cheeseburgers and chicken!

    Anyone else feel the same way?

    2 weeks ago..its good every once in a while

    About 3 weeks. We were on vacation for 2 weeks, so we stopped at a few places.. Before that I am not sure. We rarely eat out and when we do I prefer having something other than McDonalds.

    I really don't count Subway as fast food when I get one of the low fat options, have only mustard for a sauce and skip the chips and soda. As far as other places, I've had fast food less than 5 times in 2013.

    I have to be honest I had taco bell the other day but I did have it fresco style which helps with calories...I have been bringing extra healthy snacks and turkey to eat on my way home instead of stopping off at fast food places, it helps money wise and calorie wise...my drive is 45 minutes one way and I pass quite a few fast food places but if I eat right before leaving work or in the car on the way home I'm good...taco bell was a treat for my youngest daughter:)

    I really don't eat any fast food! I don't trust the cooks and the maintenance of the fast food joints. Once in a while I will order a pizza from pizzahut and that is only if I don't feel like cooking. I know the people there too so I know that I am getting good food. lol
