    "I don't eat it every day" is an example of excuses people make when they don't lose weight. I noticed your ticker hasn't moved... I'm sorry to see that... But making choices like not eating BK for breakfast is what's going to help you lose the weight you want. When you have started to see progress, then having a "treat" once in a while isn't such a bad thing. But figuring out how to balance occasional treats with better everyday eating is part of the process, and I don't think you should ignore it.

    She's trying to lose only 15 lbs... the occasional fast food breakfast isn't going to completely thwart her weightloss efforts especially if she's staying within her calorie goals on most days. 1 greasy delicious breakfast sandwich isn't going to make her gain weight. Stop being an alarmist.

    They probably did read that... and almost everyone seems to be answering logically with, yes, in moderation.

    Once in awhile it's ok. I actually have a secret love for McD's breakfast sausage wrap. I treat myself to one every now & again.

    I agree that 340 calories for breakfast isn't that bad. Having said that, there's a lot more wrong with Burger King/fast food than just the calorie counts, so be sure not to make it a habit. But once in a while isn't anything to beat yourself up over.

    On the other hand, if you are feeling this guilty about eating BK, try to figure out exactly what it is about their food that you are craving and try to find a healthier way to get that into your diet.
