Fast Food Is Bad

This is such a total DUH statement, right? Fast food is bad for you. Especially for someone with diabetes. Right? DJ definitely should not eat fast food! Ever!

HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU PEOPLE? DJ CAN EAT ANYTHING IN MODERATION!!!

Okay, another duh statement is that nobody should be eating fast food. However we all do it sometimes. I'm sure of it. If you say you never, ever, ever do... I'll say you're lying. If you really insist that you never eat fast food I might believe you, but I am positive we all eat out at some kind of chain restaurant at some point in time. That being said... counting carbs at a restaurant can be a bitch! This little baby has saved lives! Our lives! Many, many times. We have one in the house and one in the car and when we lose it I freak out!

This little book has all the nutrition information for most chain restaurants. It is lovely to be able to order something, open this book and find all the info I need at my finger tips. Guessing carb information usually ends up with extreme highs or lows, so to be able to get the count right and keep on keeping on is a wonderful feeling.

Shout out to Burgerville and McDonald's (yes, I said McDonald's) for putting nutrition information on either the receipt or food packaging. We usually only eat fast food if we are in a hurry and knowing that these two chains provide the information I need in a rush will actually encourage me to choose one of them over another chain.

For today. That is all. I have a warm Subway sandwhich calling my name. I looked it up in the book, it has about 35grams of carbs. Not too shabby.
