		<description>&quot;It&#039;s a bit more than trying to show that you can eat at McD&#039;s and not blimp up.&quot;



No... not really.  The only actual point that the word &quot;prove&quot; is attached to is that it&#039;s possible to lose weight while doing that, and that&#039;s precisely what&#039;s happening.  And maintaining a healthy lifestyle isn&#039;t the same as saying one is getting progressively healthier, is it?  No.  It isn&#039;t.  

And yes, .pdf is downright bad.</description>

		<description>Her tagline is: &quot;Starting April 1, 2004 Whaley will eat only food available over the counter at McDonaldâ??s for 30 days to prove that she can not only can maintain a healthy lifestyle, but even lose weight while doing it.&quot;

It&#039;s a bit more than trying to show that you can eat at McD&#039;s and not blimp up.

I&#039;d read her diary, except, like other things liberaltarian, she apparently is living in the fantasy world where people want to read a blog that&#039;s in PDF format.</description>

		<description>Lone,

There are a number of things wrong with what you said, so I&#039;ll list a couple and let it go.  

1)  She is checking cholesterol.

2)  More importantly, her point is not to prove that McDonalds is the best way to make yourself a perfectly healthy person.  As I understand it, she&#039;s countering the notion that seems to be commonly accepted by viewers of the Morgan mockumentary that his experiment proves that the food is the problem.  She&#039;s never claimed that her experiment will prove anything, other than to show that his experiment doesn&#039;t prove anything.  

I would never do it, but eating food from only McDonalds doesn&#039;t inherently make one unhealthy.  Tripling your caloric intake, making it a point to stop exercising and supersizing every time you&#039;re asked will, though.</description>

		<description>Countering junk science with... junk science. She claims to have lost 3 lbs. after a week (or even less) on her MickeyD diet. Three lbs. equals about 9000 calories. So, she either cut back on her normal diet by that many cals, or she climbed Rainier, or she lost it through &quot;other means.&quot; I favor the latter explanation, although apparently she doesn&#039;t.

Even if she loses weight, that doesn&#039;t mean she&#039;s healthier. She might have ingested more trans fat, sodium, cholesterol, and other good things on the MickeyD diet than on her normal fare. Is that being measured as well?</description>

		<description>Just wait.  They&#039;ll start taxing high-carb foods when enough studies are published that strain to claim a link between high carbs and...well...take your pick of evil and immoral outcomes.</description>

		<description>What, you mean you don&#039;t have to eat like a friggin&#039; pig when you go to McD&#039;s? You can order something more healthy than Supersize fries and Triple Thick Shakes now? Alert the leftists, someone is living responsibly, and making a movie about it!!</description>
