It used to be the saying that it was "expensive to eat healthy." Turns out, it's more expensive to eat crappy at fast food places, and even MORE expensive to eat healthier at fast food places. Thanks for making this video, it definitely got me thinking about that budget vs results.

[@mmtv9511]

No, its cheap to eat crappy and its more expensive to eat healthy. The problem starts if you want convinience, that is a whole other category. Burger King was crappy macro and cheap while chick-fil-a was decent food and also expensive af. So you cannot compare homemade prepfood to convinient fastfood unfortunately. I mean you can but you need to add the time/skill/research that goes into prepping and buying wholefood also the monotone nature of it. So its not black and white

[@adyon]

@@mmtv9511 I'd add a caveat there that it's actually still more expensive to it crappy if you only eat out as the example video. Because either you're eating less calories for the money in all but the cheapest of the cheap options, or you're supplementing with junk from home. That's where eating crap is cheaper (per calorie). Because a box of Hamburger Helper or ramen can give you tons of calories for nothing and little work/cooking knowledge. Or skip that and just do a bag of chips. But I'd disagree all together with the monotone nature thing. If you're talking fast food, it's equally monotone in my opinion. Especially on the cheap end. It's just different sauce/bread. I think the biggest realization anyone can make is that there's only so many varieties of food prep out there. It's why making a ton of chicken breast is a great value for me. I make it a neutral seasoning style, then from that I do whatever I want with leftovers. Wrap in a tortilla with some stuff? Instant burrito. Pour any type of flavor, etc to instantly change dishes.

I'm surprised you didn't give the power bowls a try at Taco Bell, they're probably the easiest to fit in with macros and if you go with extra protein and light sour cream it usually breaks down to 29g carbs, 37g protein, and 28g fat all for about $7.50. The worst part is the sodium but that's true for almost all fast food.

[@JerseyJake98]

I agree. So many "fast food challenge" videos completely make things as worst as possible by not even trying to fight the effects of the diet. If the dude from Supersize Me did a regular workout routine like cardio, lifting, etc he wouldn't have gotten so messed up from the documentary

It's really striking how hard (i.e. nearly impossible) it is to get enough protein through cheap food like this without completely blowing out the calories. Everything is either fat-heavy or bread-heavy.

Chipotle is the answer. Unless it doesn’t count as fast food.

[@kps.77]

Fats and carbs are cheap, protein is expensive. Guess they will always keep the protein as low as possible whilst still having a food product

I just started my health journey about a month ago. Havent touched fast food since. Previously, I had 1-2 times a day. I have been counting calories and macros. The cravings have not only gone away for sweets and fast food, but they dont even sound good anymore. I have food sitting in the pantry and alcoholic beverages in the fridge that i haven't touched because the thought of eating/drinking them and the amount of garbage in them turns me away. I am enjoying making my own foods and balancing out my diet/hitting the gym. I only wish I had started sooner. I am 29, 6'2, and was 220 pounds. I weighed in today at 207.6 and have been feeling so much better throughout the day. Still have belly/leg fat, but im enjoying the process, the appearance will come over time and im ok with that.

Great video, as always! I would just like to add from my personal experience that the probelm with Fast Food is less about Calories, more about Macros and mostly about Micros. As you showed in your video, it's easy to stay on track with your Calories if you are considerate with your options; it's harder to meet the right balances of Macros; and (that's my point) almost impossible to get the right amount of Micros, such as vitamins, minerals etc.

[@addisonmesser176]

I think this is helpful for things like road trips, or short term circumstances (like moving) that may cause it to be necessary to eat fast food. Seeing that it can be done in a temporary setting, without derailing goals is important. There are more salads available for micronutrients too that may be more important for us less buff individuals, too (though we may need to pack our own dressing).

Harder to track but better choices can be made everywhere. Taco bell for instance, ditch the sour cream and cheese(full fat) and just opt for wraps with protein and pico (al fresco) and salsa. Chick Fil-A is the obvious winner with choices but yeah it's expensive. You can grab 3 12 count grilled nuggets (36 total) for 600 calories with 114g of protein. I throw them in a bowl with buffalo sauce (0 calories) and go to town. However, that alone will run you over $20. Great stuff!

I tend to switch up the veggies part and broken down it's like $2/day for me. I always prepare a few days worth of veggie hummus and simply add the olive oil and hemp seeds fresh.

Chick-fil-a didn't look that bad, but I was a bit surprised at the price tag, and taco bell is a bit of a guilty pleasure, we will eat taco bell once a year, it is terrible for you, but for some reason it is enjoyable in the moment, jajajaja. Subway, I had a horrible experience of food poisoning back when I was in college, eating the Chicken bacon ranch, and I have not gone back in 15 years and never will. We were a group of 6 and we know it was the chicken bacon ranch because the two of us that ordered it almost died from dehydration as a result, it was bad, we ended up in the ER. On the plus side we definitely lost weight., jajaja

I used to eat Subway every other day when I first started my fitness journey before getting food poisoning as well. Eerily it was the chicken bacon ranch that nailed me to and I haven't touched it for about six years now. I didn't go to the ER but I had to use an emergency call off day for work, go in (boss was extremely patient with me doing bathroom breaks) to then put a few vacation days in. Afterwards it was chugging a ton of water while sitting on the porcelain throne.

Chick fil a has un bread chicken nuggets. I use to get a 20 piece and small fries for my carbs . It help me cut weight for a fight actually!🤯🤣

Glad this shows the cost as being more expensive. Often hear about how eating healthy is too expensive but that ignores the economy of scale when you consider the big bag of rice can last week's or the pack of chicken is multiple meals, condiments, spices etc last month's

Great video. Shows that as long as your count your calories and macros u will still get there.

[@uhmz1212]

I think its a great video yet i would like to see bloodwork before the dieet and in between and afterwards ofcourse a longer duration is a must. Not that i want to try it but i think it gives great information about the effects and such. All and all i respect the discipline it takes to do this and stop doing this!

I do two fast food days a month, the 1st & the 15th. One of them is usually Jersey Mike's sub. It's impossible to stick to macros on those days, so i feel if i am strict on the other days of the month, those 2 days aren't really hurting me

[@IdealUser]

Jersey Mike's is good. My other sub shop is Togo's (a regional chain) for their pastrami sandwich on occasion.

[@AB-py6jl]

I do one fast food day a week 😂 lost 17 pounds since January

Let’s be honest you did this because you had a hell of a craving! Love your guys channel best fitness dudes out there.

[@redv.402]

I like that you made the effort to stay around your normal calories and maybe be conscious of your macros (which was probably difficult given the fat content but hey it matters!) I think sometimes these kinds of videos just show the order without the thought process, or becomes an excuse just to pig out, just so they blame people and their choices. When the reality is that the nuance is that many people rely on fast food because of price & availability (quite literally, there are some towns where the grocery store is the next town over, but there’s a Dunkin’ Donuts around the corner!) However, the effort you made, you could see the actual nutrition & price of the food. Bravo!

"You look like you could kill someone with a small slap" THAT is a compliment

[@timfremstad3434]

I don't figure you'll see this, but do you do 40/40/20 everyday, or do you sometimes do for example 35/50/15.....do you add to each split to balance them to 40/40/20 ? How do you make the balance exact everyday?

[@stanblackburn700]

Excellent video, especially the conclusion.

[@ZlykeFN]

I literally got a Domino's Pizza ad when I clicked on this video

[@hjewkes]

I've heard you can order just the grilled meat from a lot of fast food spots, which would help hit the protein targets

[@MbisonBalrog]

Or just order chicken salad which most fast food offers
