What do you think of Taco Bell's "Drive-Thru Diet"?

[believing_is_art]

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. YOU DON'T EVEN GET OUT OF YOUR CAR and you expect to lose weight? I hope people aren't really believing this S**t, It makes me want to move to France, America is too glutinous for words and it's really sad.

Why france? the average french person consumes more fattening foods(they use more lard for cooking than americans) than americans. the japanese smoke more cigarettes than we do also. yet more americans die from heartattacks and cancer than they do. makes you wonder eh?

the french and japanese eat/drink more atioxidants than we do, the japanese rides more bicycles, the french walk more than we do and drink a lot of red wine.



that's why they are healthier...MacDonalds/fast "fatty" food restaurants are all over the western world.

You can be healthy in the united states if you wanted too. My personal kryptonite is chinese takout food and coka cola...both of which I am currently avoiding and feeling much better.

By the way " Diet fast food" are three words that should never be in the same sentence so I totally agree it is laughable when the big fast food chains add the word "diet" to anything on their menu.

[believing_is_art]

Hahah that last part was hilarious. And France, because they just seem more well rounded and I love that they have universal health care. and most of my extended family speaks french.

Its not about losing weight, or any kind of diet, as they say in the small print on the commercials, its about getting the quick meal you need in a fast paced enviornment while being able to make slightly better, healthier choices. Of course there are even better alternatives to this, but it's a start for some.

[believing_is_art]

Thats true. wow they should really lead with that. But on the commercial they make it sound like "i lost 60 pounds from eating at taco bell!"

[jtj25m]

Yeah but when is there ever really truth in advertising ? Lol Its like the whole jared subway thing, or any other fad kind of thing, that tries to make it look like you can have your cake and eat it too, which the fatties, like I used to be, are going to go gaga over =P People are all too often gonna look for the easy way out, but sometimes we do need small steps in the right direction, such as this stuff, to get us motivated. I know it wasn't that easy for me to lose 113 pounds o.O

[believing_is_art]

Whoaaaaa you lost 113 pounds! you are amazing!

[jtj25m]

Don't give me too much credit, yes I did something about it, but I should have never let it get that outta hand in the first place=\ I do appreciate the kind words though, thank you sweetheart. And things like this stuff, among others did help, so I can see their benefit and place,which sin't meant to be your whole entire diet plan as they make it seem to be lol.

[jtj25m]

Isn't ** any other typos** The tired, it has me...And my wireless keyboard conspires against me...I SWEAR IT!

people are just really stupid. no one wants to do any effort to work out. we americans live in this microwave culture where we expect instant results and don't want to work for anything.

actually this makes me want to STAY in america. with all the fatties running around I look even thinner! :D

[samanthakat]

I think it's so funny that you're getting all upset over this, yet your icon is cupcakes!

PS: Not saying you are fat (I don't even know you!) it's just ironic funny.

[believing_is_art]

Haha hey I wanted a cute & girly icon, it was either cupcakes, a panda or hello kitty lol.

and nope I'm not fat!

As a questionable writer of prose, who knows, and occasioned to disclose, yet meant not to augment your woes. It blows!

Sorry. The words posted above were meant as a response to the guy asking for opinions on his vampire poem. But he blocked me after I gave him my honest opinion.

Anyway, if anyone thinks the food at Taco Hell tastes good enough to actually eat, dieting is the least of their worries. After all, why add years to your life, if you're only going to spend it eating bad food?

[jacquesvol]

In France you won't find Taco Bell and drive trhu I think, but you'll find McDonalds, Quick, Pizzaland and even some KFC, not less glutinous. (but in France you'll be able to find way better too)

[believing_is_art]

Haha I'm also not just talking about fast food. We use the most fossil fuel than any other country, even the ones that are way bigger than us like china they have billions of people. We just have so much excess over here.

[Gorce]

You can stay here, just consume less and save money. Maybe you'll start a trend. Don't forget america also has the biggest industry in the world (factories, trucking, the military etc.) that's a huge chunk of fuel right there. we where also using more fuel because americans enjoyed the lowest fuel cost for a mighty long time. Some countries in europe pay about 7 dollars a gallon for gasoline and as much as we cry about it, 3 bucks +/- a gallon is still cheap in comparison.

[believing_is_art]

Oh of course I LOVE America. I just hate that we aren't as appreciative of what we have, and we have a lot.

[Littletad]

Just another fad diet. It will soon be forgotten like all the others.

[stevo]

Just another way to make money. I really don't pay it any attention-
