According to MFP, I can lose 1lb per week eating 1440 cals per day.

Today, I found my perfect diet - 20pc Mcdonald's McNuggets, large french fries and large diet Coke = exactly 1440 cals. Great macros too - 35%C - 15%P - 50%F.

breakfast = 4 McNuggets and 10 fries
lunch = 8 McNuggets and 10 fries
dinner = 8 McNuggets and the remaining fries and diet Coke

Sounds like a winner to me!!

    That's nice and all, but there's no room for the sweet n sour sauce... which would put you over goal. IMO, chicken nuggets are NOTHING without the sweet n sour sauce.

    10 whole fries per meal? And cold or re-heated fries at that. Sounds like heaven. Or maybe something the exact opposite of heaven.

    But if I count waiting at the McD's counter and placing my order and walking to the trash can to throw away my trash as exercise, I think that earns me enough exercise calories to cover the sauce. :tongue:

    I agree and stale Coke and ten hour old cold fries and nuggets sound especially delicious....yummmm. I think I might look forward to such a dinner all day long. Heating them up in the micro wave will definitely put a very special gourmet spin on them.
    Really excellent idea.....!

    One packet of Sweet n sour sauce is 50 calories. Sorry to rain on that parade, but it doesn't take 50 calories to throw away the rubbish. Just sayin.

    50% fat is perfect macro? How many phytochemicals, vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants were in your Mickeydees? How many different man-made chemicals like preservatives and dyes were in that "food"?

    This is just a perfect example of why calorie counting alone wont work. This poor woman is heading for an early grave, and thinks she's being healthy by counting calories. I sure hope the OP was being sarcastic with this one.

    how does 15% protein = good macros?

    15% here..good for 120gr-ish a day on swimming days, which is about 1.7x my body weight in kg. 100gr-ish on days off.

    Sounds good enough to me.

    But......no sauce?

    Not worth it without the sauce.

    15% of 1440 calories is a far cry from 120 gr of protein.

    actually, tomatoes are supposed to be a fruit.........Again, I am no expert, but if shes wanting to stay under 1440, then she needs to avoid the sugar from the fruit/vegetable ..tomatoe.

    its important to count every single calorie, and skig the sodium/ cholesterol that might be in the nuggets (sarcasm)...

    Congress ruled that the tomato sauce on pizza is considered a vegetable. And when has our all-knowing, all-powerful Congress ever been wrong?

    Actually, the ruling was about whether the amount of tomato sauce found on a school lunch pizza qualified as a serving of vegetables. Whether tomato sauce was a vegetable was never in question.
