First I want to thank everybody again for all the kind get well thoughts and emails I do appreciate it. I'm feeling a little better, my finger still hurts like hell, but that's to be expected since I sliced it in half. Also, because I'm just that desperate, and because Eric gave me the idea, I've added a donate button over there on my sidebar...If you feel like you want to help a girl out, and get her to the Police, press the little button. Anyone who does donate, even if it's a buck (because a buck is a buck), will be entered into a constest for a freebie design by me.
Now on to my actual post...I keep seeing these fast food commercials and hearing them on the radio for these healthy options at these places. I love how people justify eating gallons of shit. All these fast food companies that market shit food to health conscious people by saying it's low-carb...McDonalds has a low carb menu, so does Wendy's and KFC. KFC. I have a particular bone to pick with these people that think this food is healthy...c'mon, anything with a "special skin" can't be healthy for you....just look at their founder guy. Col. Sanders...the dude has a beer belly hanging over his size 48 pants.
Anyway, getting back on track...you can't say that suddenly this fried piece of trans-fat crap that you've been eating since you were a kid is now good for you because it only has 12 grams of carbs and 45 grams of protein. It's complete bullshit. Fast food is fast food...it's fast for a reason. If you want healthy, swing into the store and buy some salad instead of flipping through the drive thru for a Big-Mac.
And yes, Subway is fastfood...and No, I don't buy the Jarod story. You know how he lost all that weight? His family owned a Subway store, and he lived out in the boonie's and decided to walk like eleventy million miles round trip to work at his parents Subway everyday. He didn't loose a dumptruck worth of weight by eating Subway food. He lost it by getting off his sedentary ass and excersising. I know if I lived off of fast food (Subway or anything else) 24/7 you'd need to grease up the door frames to squeeze me through. I'm not quite sure who the nimrod was who came up with this brilliant idea...this "healthy" fast food craze, but I'm sure it'll come back to bite them squarely in the ass when people are suing them over 200 pound weight gains and not over how hot their coffee is.

Are you trying to say that fast food isn't good for you? I think that you are being a little vague.

A 6" vegetable sub on wheat or white bread w/ no dressings and no cheese doesn't have a ton of calories in it. That's what I always get from subway. It has a lot less calories and almost no real fat, unlike a Whopper w/ Cheese or some other fast food item.
However when people think that they can order anything and still have it be healthy is where the problem lies (and Subway's marketing plan.) A 12" Italian with extra salami, cheese, and mayonaise is PACKED with useless calories, and if you get it with a cola, becomes even worse.
You bring up a good point that Subway is like regular junky fast-food.
But really, it all depends on what you get. Subway is more often than not bad for you (since most people buy meaty/cheesy crap), but the good thing is that it is possible to get something with vegetables and isnt devastatingly bad for your health.

Dooooooon't get me started on Jarod's Subway ass-hattery. Comparing the healthiest thing on your menu to the least healthy item on a competitor's menu is just stupid.
