LOL ... yeah, it sure does. I am proud of my job, and I want to clarify some TAs' views on this fast food chain. Unfortunately, many people have seen too many awful and shocking movies and documentaries depicting the complete and exclusive evilness of big corporations, as depicted by Michael Moore for example. I am not getting into details here, as I know the score and understand the big picture. However, in my situation I have already been dealt a rough hand and I have to play the game or else I lose. Watching Michael Moore is not going to make my situation any better, but probably worse.

McDonalds is not perfect, they have their issues, its obvious, and I am not going to get into details about what I think. I am proud, I like my job and I get really irritated when I read silly things by people who havent been on the front lines like me, closer to the truth and with a better understanding of the situation.

Thats all. Any other McDonald's questions are welcome.

I hate to disagree with you (only cuz I don't feel like getting flamed) but I believe your wrong on this one.

As you get older...your hgh levels decrease (From the age of 20 to 70, your Human growth hormone levels in your body fall by more than 75%) and once that happens...it affects your ability to loose weight easily...so essentially you become what you eat...regardless of how much you exercise. The alternative is if you consume a lot of amino acids which may raise some of your hgh levels. Even if you do the weight-resistance exercises, it just isn't enuf to increase your hgh. So you see...you are mistaken in your opinion.

Here...read some Hgh Info

well the way you talk is that everyone is resistant to their food, just because your body allows it. its not true.

i agree with mcds isnt perfect, but there is point he was trying to prove from that documentary, that it does have bad effects to the body any fast food that matter.

Bottom line is trying to prove that junk food isnt good for the health

Gotta add that my job is certainly not the best in the world, and I dont even work full time, and the pay is not much ...


The worst thing is that since I started working at McD, I have been losing weight ... I used to weight 148 pounds, and now I am afraid to check myself ... I think I am about 130 pounds now. I dont know why it is like that.

I still eat some healthy food outside of work too, and I hoped to gain a dozen or so pounds, but the strangest thing has happened.


Anyone has any idea WTF is going on with me? BTW, I do have fast metabolism, but I've actually been gaining weight up until I joined the Mac team.

Well, I'm no doctor but it sounds like your eating a lot of high glycemic foods and that's affecting your insulin levels and may be causing a sugar intollerance...which can eventually lead to diabetis.

Have you found that you've been drinking a lot of fluids?

No, I am not diabetic nor sugar intollerant, but I might be consuming too many sugars as of late, stress is a factor. I will take your post as an advice and will immediately and slowly cut down on food containing high amounts of sugar. I love candy at the moment, eat a lot of it, but as of late I also developed strong craving for healthy food, which I like.
