Week 1: The Observation

Friday afternoon, as usual, we went to McDonalds for dinner. This time, however, I kept close tabs on what everyone including myself was eating.

Dad: Big Mac Meal

Sandwich: 540 calories
Large Coke: 310 calories
Medium Fries: 380 calories
Total : 1230 calories

Jarria: Mighty Kids Meal

Sandwich: 300 calories
Small Fries: 230 calories
Small Sprite: 110 calories
Total: 640 calories

Me: All American Meal

Sandwich: 300 calories
Medium Fries: 380 calories
Mocha Iced McCafe: 560 calories (I couldn't resist the temptation)
Diet Dr. Pepper: 0 calories
Total: 1240 calories

Mom decided not to get anything this week so her calorie count remains at 0.
Judging by all the information I've gathered this is more than enough reason to intervene with this sick tradition. Next week, instead of the usual greasy fast food from McDonalds, I'm going to get my family to try something a little more healthy.
