Fast Food Nightmare

http://www.livestrong.com/article/8722-need-fast-food/

I came across an interesting article after having a heated debate with a friend who eats fast food at least once every day.  On top of the many health risks fast food contain, including heart disease, and high blood pressure,  eating these fatty foods makes you overeat!  By consuming more fats and sugars, our  bodies become immune to the hormone we are supposed to produce that tells us we are full!  Not only this, but consuming so much fat leaves us sapped of energy, and still craving more fat.  This is a vicious cycle none of the fit and fabulous want to be sucked into!  Watch what you eat!
