(5,340 posts)I've been known to eat a rotating buffet of fast food (generally Checkers and Taco Bell, with a generous spoonful of Popeyes and a pinch of McD's/BK/Wendy's - I won't count Shake Shack or Schnipper's since the product is Real Food [and so is the bill] even though it's even less healthy) four or five days in a given week, but the long-term frequency is around once or twice a week. I also love eggses, delicious eggses...I usually go through close to a dozen a week. Mostly scrambled in European-style (extra high fat) butter on buttered whole wheat toast with some sharp cheddar and lots of black pepper, it's an excellent pre-long-run snack.
My doctor blanched when I told him that - and then the numbers came in. 5'10, 163lbs, RHR 51, BP 134/66, cholesterol 102. My electronic scale puts me at 9.3% fat, but I'll be on a hardass 10K program in a couple of weeks so that will take care of itself
