ive been eating better the past month since i'm cutting up now for summer time, but pretty much every saturday i still hit up Chipotle. I typically get the bowl w/chicken and cheese, corn, and mild salsa so it's not as bad as it COULD be for me.

I used to eat tons of fast food and frozen food between lunch and dinner. Lived off soft drinks.

Very rarely and it's usually just a small sub from Subway or Quizno's or something along that lines.

I try my best not to. The drawback is that not eating fast food for lunch ends up costing me an extra $3 or so whenever I go out to eat which is practically every day, but I figure it is worth it for health reasons. I really need to buy a mini fridge to store sandwich meat and other stuff at my cubicle.

Maybe once a month? In N Out 2x double-double w/ beer. Sooo good. Makes my car smell like burger. I don't eat it in my car, but the smell lingers.

Usually twice a week. I just get tired of lunch meat sandwiches and I have to eat something different.

Yeah but it's worth it. In-N-Out really "gets my juices flowing"

Never. Last time I had any fast food was last summer in Sydney... we were on a bus trip and it was either McDonalds or some greasy kebob shop.

Rarely. Usually I'll go out to restaurants to eat on the weekends with amigos, but I do enjoy a good TB after seeing a movie :D.

EDIT:

Heck, last time me karma was so good that I got a free meal at TB! That was a $7.12 savings!

When I was still working as a tech, I would eat a subway sub at least once a day, though subway subs aren't really considered fast food when the subject is health - their subs are as good for you as most home meals, better then some.

For the last five years plus, I have only had fast food once a month or less, usually a papa john's pizza.

Subway subs are quite bad for you. They have a few that are alright, but as soon as you start adding cheese or sauce or pretty much anything...

Granted, they are better than greaseburgers from McDonald's or whatnot, but still not healthy, and not a good replacement for home made food.
