I track my macros and I eat pretty well but could I eat fast food as long as it fits in my macros for the day?

    You can eat anything you want! Some fast food is no worse than home cooked. IMHO, it is important to eat as "clean" as possible just for general health. Again, that doesn't negate fast food altogether.

    Yup, just make sure you're getting adequate fibre.

    Well, if you don't care about being healthy & just care about being a particular weight.

    Oh good gravy, eating fast food for day won't compromise your health nor will eating "healthy" ensure better health.

    You can be healthy and lose weight without eating clean. Fast food is fine as long as it fits.

    I travel 3-5 days per week for work and eat fast food during those periods almost exclusively. I have never been in better health.

    I'm pretty sure you would drop dead right on the spot if you tried it....
