Virginia man sheds 80 pounds eating at McDonald’s

Step aside Jared Fogle, the Sub-Way superstar dieter, there’s a new fast food diet celebrity on the scene.

The All-American McDiet!

Unsurprisingly, Chris Coleson stayed away from the Big Mac, fries and shakes and opted for mostly salads, wraps and fruit.

What is odd is what inspired him to start this crazy diet:  “His inspiration came from his two children and from the story of a blind war veteran who rode a tandem bicycle cross-country.”  I guess the point is that if a blind war veteran can ride across the country, then a regular guy can lose weight by eating at a fast food chain every day.  I’d say the odds are about even.

Why McDonald’s and not Burger King you ask?  “The 42-year-old businessman from Quinton says he chose McDonald’s because it’s convenient.”
