'Super Size Me' Rebuttal


Article Submitted by ug7433.

QUINTON, Va. - A Virginia man lost about 80 pounds in six months by eating nearly every meal at McDonald's.

Not Big Macs, french fries and chocolate shakes. Mostly salads, wraps and apple dippers without the caramel sauce.

Chris Coleson tipped the scales at 278 pounds in December. The 5-foot-8 Coleson now weighs 199 pounds and his waist size has dropped from 50 to 36.

The 42-year-old businessman from Quinton says he chose McDonald's because it's convenient.

His inspiration came from his two children and from the story of a blind war veteran who rode a tandem bicycle cross-country.

Coleson says his goal is to get back to the 185 pounds he weighed when he married Tricia Summer. Their 10th anniversary is Saturday.

Must have been some drugs he was smoking in order to make that into "Eat at McDonalds, lose weight."

i don`t see this as a rebuttal. a rebuttal would be doing the same thing as in supersize and not have any problems. this guy did something different, he did demonstrate that your choice in foods does make a difference though

Of course, Mcdonald`s only started offering salads and other "healthier" alternatives as a response to Supersize Me. So how is this a rebuttal?

of course your gonna lose weight if you only eat the vegetables and fruits from McDonalds, and the same can be said if you only eat supersize meals.

True, the salads are low in fat (if you don`t choose the crispy chicken), but you might want to check out the sodium content before you call them healthy.

"McDonald`s has offered salads for years. People just didn`t eat them. There are others who did 30 day stints at McDonalds juts after supersixe me came out and they alco lost weight by eating healthy. I guess the point is, you have some control over what you put in your body. Dillinger is right about the sodium content. It far harder to cut sodium out of your diet than fat. Everything has salt in it.
