FAST FOOD AND SUGAR CLARIFIED

The challenge requirements are no "bad fast food" i.e. french fries, burgers, especially anything fried. Subway, depending on what you eat, could be considered a "good fast food". You just have to use your judgement. I think most of us truly know when we are eating "bad food". McDonalds has wonderful salads now, that are quite tasty. Just be careful of the dressing you put on them. Some dressings are loaded with sugar. If you question it, then it probably shouldn't be put into your mouth!!! Speaking of sugary foods - don't eat the obvious, i.e. sugared cereals, pastries, ice cream...unfortunately there is sugar hidden in most things. Sometimes there is a trace of sugar and we don't even know it. I'm thinking we can't help ingesting some. Just be aware by reading the package!
