I would be interested to know what his doctor has to say about this method of weight loss and also what his body stats actually are. Obviously, it is good that he has brought his weight down, but this is not a sustainable, healthy way to live and the long term ramifications are yet to be revealed. Lets see what he looks like in a year.

WOW! Absolutely disgusting! This is the difference between people wanting to be fit and healthy and those who just want to lose weight. He’ll gain it all back and then some because he still has very unhealthy habits (not to mention the damage he’s already done to his heart, arteries, kidneys, liver etc.). I’m absolutely furious at the media for exploiting this situation…Just one more reason for the already obese youth in this world to eat another BigMac!!

Unfortunately many gullible people will think this is another good way to lose weight. The truth is in order to be healthy we need to feed our bodies the nutrients it needs in reasonable amounts to remain healthy.You can’t do that eating twice a day at “Mickee Dees”. Limiting your caloric intake that drastically will produce short term results but who in their right mind would want to practice nutrient deficient and deprived lifestyle like that for the rest of their ( miserable and drastically shortened) lives?

You can lose weight on any food when you eat a real low calorie diet. The problem is that it is not healthy.

Subway uses conventional vegetables sprayed with pesticides, nitrite ridden meat, pasteurized cheese, and white or wheat (not whole wheat) rolls.

McDonald’s uses conventional vegetables sprayed with pesticides, hamburger from grain fed cattle, pasteurized cheese, and white rolls.

So sure you will lose weight if that is all you are eating. However, you won’t be healthy. These are two places among the thousands of others that are actually so bad for your health.

Fast food should be outlawed unless it is 100% organic, loaded with whole grains, raw cheese from grass fed cows, organic and grass fed meat without preservatives.

These sickos should try the diet I used recently – surgery. I highly recommend having one’s appendix burst, followed one week later by a colectomy because the appendix turned out to be cancerous. In a total of 9 days in the hospital I lost more than 20% of my body weight – from 148 to 116! Beat that, Oprah!

Of course it took me 3 years of hard work to get up to that previous weight, and all of the loss was muscle, none of it from my middle aged belly where I’d really like things to shrink. I have no idea how I’m gong to gain it back, so there’s another bonus for those looking for a fast weight loss program.

Even better for those who think that losing weight by neglecting nutrition might be decapitation, since they obviously aren’t using that top-most 20 lbs or so of excess fat.

I think that this man is too bloody lazy to even try to do his own diet. It looks as tho he needs someone to count cook the food for him ( I wouldn’t be surprised if they hand fed him aswell, LAZY this is what he is), If so why didn’t he do Jenny Craig or someone like that. the money he spent would have went a hell of alot further if he got a presonal trainer. What is even worse is that he has premoted McDonalds, ( how much did they pay him for this )

Okay..i am only 18 years old but i even realize this isnt healthy!!!…when i recieved scotts email thats subjest waas loose weight by eating mcdonalds i was about to erase the email and request an end to the emails..haha…good thing i read it and saw Scott felt as i do!….breakfast-as many have heard since they were little kids-is the most IMPORTANT meal of the day!…. eating the same foods every day is not healthy-we need a variety of foods and meals that are balanced!! today we are not focused on being HEALTHY-and even when we are our idea of healthy is often distorted-but instead we are focused on WeighT! Yes being poverweight is not good for your joints and your heart but just because your thin doesnt mean your healthy!!!!…Giving the MCdiet guy this publicity adds to our distorted image of being HealthY vs being ThiN FaT or SkinnY!!

That is total BS. That guy is such an idiot, way to set back the health movement another 5 years! That diet is fine and dandy if you’re looking to kill yourself in the next 20 years or so, but of course spend those last 20 years 10lbs lighter, and extremely miserable. There is no limit to the information on those salads and sandwiches, did no one watch “Supersize Me”? It’s a fact that those salads have just as much, if not more fat in them than a big mac. How is that in anyway healthy? Not to menton that that man is marketing annorexia.
It’s horid that the media is marketing thin before healthy, and this guy is only adding fuel to the fire. Who cares if you are extremely thin if you are DEAD 10-20 years before you could be! A healthy and rewarding life is all about balance – the healthy fuel your body needs and proper exercise. This guy makes me sick, and I can’t wait to hear the “surprising” news release that he’s had a heartattack or been diagnosed with diabetes. At the very least I’m sure he’s extremely vitamin deficient.

McDonald’s is disgusting. It’s not even real food. More than likely he’ll go back to eating 5 big macs a day and gain it back, plus some. And he was on Good Morning America. It’s partly the media’s fault because if you want the truth on how to be healthy and fit you have to find it for yourself. The media won’t report on someone that lost weight the right way because it takes work, and that’s pretty sad.

What to make of this…obviously this is not the way to make healthy and sustainable changes. Has he really changed anything except that he eats less? The article says he also started exercising, something they gloss over pretty quickly. He was pretty darn heavy before he started – he actually still appears overweight. The article says he chose a diet that made sense for him — does no one in his house cook? It’s pretty simple to make an egg or even buy a rotisserie chicken and cans of tuna! His wife even jumped on the McDiet. I just don’t know what to make of it. But promoting any fast food as “healthy” is a dangerous way to go.

I’m in cellular and traditional nutrition (bachelor) and I really do believe that some people are just too lazy to eat properly at home. They always take the easiest and shortest way, even for eating. In fact these men can eat in a way much proper way at Mc Do then is doing at home.

For the rest of my tough about that… well, the movie Super size me reveal a lot about Mc Do complete menu. If you stay away from soft drinks and fries, you’ll remove tow strikes against you.

With the salad, don’t push to hard on the dressing and with rap sandwich; pick the salsa as a healthier dressing then every other suggested creamy sauce. And always keep in mind that you need good carbs to maintain your muscular tonus…

You have to watch the bio availability of your supplements if you take some

Don’t be lazy, train smart and you’ll reach your goals

I have to applaud Mr. Coleson for losing the weight. His eating approach doesn’t sound like the ideal way to lose weight. But that was his choice to do things the way that he did. And I must applaud Mr.
Coleson for exercising. Anyone should be able to lose weight who exercise on a 1400 daily calorie diet. Consistently that is. I don’t think I’d go under 1800 daily calories with increased physical activity if I needed to lose weight that badly.

I do agree that weight can be lost with healthier food choices. Again, it all boils down to personal choices.

This is the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard. Why is the media so quick to let people hear and believe things like this. Anyone stupid enough to think they can lose weight by skipping breakfast and eating McDonald’s every day is asking for trouble. Seriously are we that naive? Doesn’t anyone value being healthy as a thing to advertise. Sure the guy is smaller, but he got that way eating more junk in smaller quantities. What next?

I believe what they say is true “breakfast is the most important meal of the day”. I am a single person and find it really hard to cook a meal for 1, so sometimes a restraunt drive thru sounds more appealing after a long day at work. I think if your going to make these choices of fast food you should choose the healthy menu. I think its great that fast food joints are serving a healthy choice menu these days. I think it’s important that they show the food fact labels on everything, so people know what thier serving sizes are.

I just have one question…is this his Life style change?? with years of being a yo-yo dieter i know one thing now…the way you lose the weight is the way you gotta keep it off. you cant lose weight and then come back to “normal” and expect it to be off.
well at least he made healthy choices and it worked for him…but it sure is not healthy!!

People know how to use businesses that are making money to publizice themselves. Whether it is healthy or not is entirely up to the person. It is himself only that has to live with the low energy,low vitality and who are we to say what would work best for him!Maybe he felt it was his only option as we do not know the full details in leading up to his decision!He could use our understanding and sympathy. We could give him lots of advice but that would only be based on what would work for us and maybe for him it would not work. For some people exercise actually reduces their energy instead of increasing it just because of the type of people they are. He made this decision for a reason-whether we feel it is healthy or not is just based on what works for us and what we would do or not do. Thanks Helen Cowan

Take a look at the guy’s ‘before’ picture. I would like to see what happens when a individual that is not a ‘whale’ tries the diet. A normal healthy life style would have served the same purpose and would have been much better for the guy’s overall health.
Please people – GET REAL!

What this points out unfortunately is success through convenience. To make a commitment to a healthly lifestyle take disciplin. It is not so easy to plan out your meals, shop for the ingredients and prepare them. This is a toucgh thing for most people to do. This gentleman got by that by going to a fastfood restaurant everyday. In my opinion a bad choice but it did work for him because there were no barriers to doing it.

Wouldn’t be great if we had the equivalent to fast food that was a truly healthy at drive through convenience. We have a society that is badly over weight and we are hammered by that very fact. I don’t see anything being done about it.

I have the discilpin to work out but the diet part is always a struggle for me. I keep working at it but it is never easy. A few years ago a successful train started a series of restaurants geared toward helthly choices and they failed. I guess health just doesn’t sell to the masees.
