John Cisca broke the stereotype that eating in McDonald's makes you fat. During the 90-day fast-food diet he lost 37 pounds, and his cholesterol revel dropped from 249 to 170.
And besides he ate everything he loved in the eatery's menu: BigMacs, shakes, salads, and quarter pounders. This is a sensation that challenges Supersize Me, the pseudo documentary of man who performed the same experiment producing a deplorable result. The same, but not exactly.
John Cisca, a science teacher in the Colo-Nesco School District in Ankeny, Iowa, decided to amend the experiment conditions. First of all, he didn't stuff himself like a pig. John Cisca ate only 2,000 calories a day. He also tired to balance the nutrients according to the FDA's reference daily intake tables. He says that he combined different dishes in McDonald's menu: "So this isn't something where you say, 'Well, he went to McDonald's, and he only had the salads. No, I had the BigMacs, the quarter pounders with cheese. I had sundaes, I had ice cream cones."
The second amendment to the experiment involved walking during 45 min a day. Not running even, but simply walking that everybody should normally do every day to use the calories they get from food.
The results were impressive: he lost his weight from 279 to 242 pounds, and his bad cholesterol level dropped dramatically from 173 to 113.
The teacher turned his experiment into a documentary for his students that teaches to pay attention to their nutrition balance and not how much, but what they eat. Combining the dishes in the eatery can give us all necessary nutrients. He says that the point behind the documentary is:
"Hey, it's a choice. We all have choices. It's our choices that make us fat, not McDonald's.
So, the lesson for all of us is: despite our restaurant choices, if the amount of calories we consume is less than the amount we use, we will lose weight eventually.
