Fast Food and Depression
 

http://naturalsociety.com/breaking-j...se-depression/

I don't eat fast food so much, anymore but**hear this**...I will not give up my choc chip cookies! They do not depress me, they make me feel gooder.:D

I hardly ever eat fast food. I can't remember the last time I did. But I never noticed that it made me feel depressed. Maybe made me fatter and then that would make me upset....but not depressed.

If anyone takes away my fast food, that will not only depress me, but it will make me very very very very very very very very very very VERY angry!

Dont mess with my fast food. It makes me happy!

Now I'm hungry for McDonald's.

you are what we eat!

I rarely to never eat fast food. I almost never eat anything from a box at home. It was a hard habit to make, but now that its been made, im glad for it.

That's been the best thing about not driving anymore. I don't (can't) go to Burger King of McDonald's whenever the craving strikes. And since I've not had either for so long I don't get the cravings anymore. It was rough right at first but it was so worth it. Now, I'd probably explode if I ate that stuff! :p

We don't eat the "fast food" per se very often, like Wendy's or McDonald's, etc. But we do eat a LOT of prepared foods, frozen meals, pasta/rice mixes, chicken nuggets, etc. We try to eat the healthier frozen meals (relatively speaking, of course), but we eat our share of frozen pizza also.

I try to balance it out a little with salads, veggies such as spinach, carrots...and my husband eats oatmeal with fruit (strawberries, bananas, raisins) every morning. Of course, he then eats half a bakery muffin...oh well.

At this stage of the game, I think I'd be more depressed thinking I had to put out the effort involved in eating healthier. If we were 20, 30 years younger, it might be more of an issue.

indeed! bodies were meant to be nourished not asked to digest junk masking as nourishment!

I'd be depressed if I was asked do something repeatedly that I was never intended to do.

Exactly y'all..:D I don't eat a steady diet of any one thing, even too much brocoli could kill you. And I can't get to the taco bell or mcds anymore..:rolleyes: and.....I'm too old to GAS (give a s***) .. I like that it spells gas, how apropo..:D:p:D

I like my fast food. I dont eat it every day, (used to, when I worked for McD's for 8yrs in the early to mid-90s) but when I want to eat it, I'm going to go hit the drive thru. It's a comfort food.

I have a lot of comfort foods. Asparagus and Brussels sprouts are two of them, but so are McD's fries and McNuggets with sweet & sour and barbecue sauce. The trick is to not go nuts and gorge yourself on whatever food it is that you're hungry/craving at any particular time.

now I've just made myself hungry for Brussels sprouts by thinking about them. I wonder if I can talk my dad into making me some for lunch...
