false. adding toppings and shit you don't need is why youre fat and not moderating it. I lost 45 pounds and I often had fast food. The calorie count is what matters. Couple in dedication and consistent exercise.
Not sure if that's sarcastic or some crazy new diet thing exists? I don't really subscribe to those or even read about them. I look at losing weight or gaining it (for bulking) as something very scientific and tailored to ones body. I used to train for bodybuilding, so this isn't just me talking out my ass either. The one constant like all things in life is dedication. Read all the books, buy all the supplements, gym passes,etc. and they won't mean shit without unwavering dedication.
I was reasonably healthy and fit in college. After five years of sitting at a desk, I realized I became rather unfit, and accordingly I've been on a reduced-calorie diet the past few weeks.
I've had quite a bit of fast food, especially Wendy's. Down about 16 pounds so far...
And there's not even that much correlation. From the comments on the post, someone did did some calculations and it's about 0.18 - and the line pretty much becomes flat if the US and Mexico are removed.
As a guess, I would bet there are a number of things in terms of both culture and food quality which go into that "number of minutes per day spent eating" data point for each country.
