It's a comfort food, especially if you link or connect it to good friends or family you enjoyed it with or who bought it for you earlier on. I remember grade school dragging to the floor as the Chinese Restaurant downstairs back then made bomb Pork Fried Rice. They changed "ownership" 3X since as its never been the same. Used to take long trips to the city for a place that made it similar, but with covid-19 they closed for good.

When I started actively gaining I made a lot of trips to McDonald's and Subway. Now I get crazy cravings and can't go too long without having it.

I love fast food too I am eating it so much and 5 to 6 days a week I have at least 4 breakfast meals or dinner meals to keep me going bojangles 4 bacon egg and cheese biscuits seasoned fries bo sauce and Pepsi or 4 triple bacon cheeseburgers, large fries milkshakes I love it all but of course look at my belly hehe

I eat junk food all the time.

Usually before work I'll grab something from McDonald's or Greggs, mainly because I'm never hungry before I leave the house.

I don't eat lunch, since it's only half an hour.

For dinner I often getting something out or delivered because I'm too tired/lazy to cook.....in fact just reading this topic makes me want to order something.

Reminds me of an old TV 'weight loss' show where at one point a person had a literal Donner Kebab cooker......I was jealous.

I would love to eat fast food all day long honestly.

I’ve tried to make an effort of having it at least for breakfast most days, lunch when I feel up to it. I’m kind of coming to the point where I’m not in the mood for anything, but I just want whatever I can stuff down my throat. Trying to find a balance, though.

There are two developments I've noticed when someone blows up to true fatty level. One, fast food becomes a snack. They'll order a 1,500 cal fast food meal to hold them over and eat their real giant dinner a couple hours later.

The other is the transformation of their mental menu options, ie. "what sounds good". They get to a point where all of their go-to food options are super fattening. And often the list gets progressively shorter where they're eating the same fattening foods/places multiple times a week.

My old boss was VP of marketing at McD's. And one of their customer demo's are what they internally deem "super heavy users". These are customers that eat at McD's at least 10x a month. 75% of McDonald's sales come from this one customer set. His primary annual goal was to move these people to eating McD's 3x a week!

This is exactly what happened when my wife gained a ton this past fall. She got on a little KFC kick where her interest was peaked and ordering it on the weekends for lunch. And it wasn't long before she got the idea to DoorDash it at night and share with the family with a movie.

Within a couple weeks, the kids were sick of it and she was eating a bucket of chicken at 9PM at night to herself with Netflix and it seemed totally normal to her by then.

Whatever the current $5 meal is. I order three or four - depending on how hungry I am. Most Taco Bell can also be reheated if I order too much. 😉

I eat out every day for the past year. I’ve become addicted to myself so much to the point where my family had a “coming to Jesus” moment with me about how much fast food I order and how it’s bad for my health. Lol. I LOVE gorging on some Taco Bell or McD’s! It’s definitely packed on the pounds. Haha
