Answers:
Eating fast food completely defeats the purpose of a diet. Try not to think of it strictly in term of calorie intake. Bear in mind fat, sodium, carbs, etc. To answer your question, it will probably impede your diet and your plans to lose weight. Lay off the fast food, or cut it out of your diet forever (recommended).Health Question & Answer
Calories are just a small part of your food plan, you also need to plan to meet US or Canada Food Guide: 2-3 servings of protein, 3-5 servings of whole grains, 3-4 servings of milk or dairy, 8-10 servings of fruit and veggies, no more than 3 servings of fat.
So you can have fast food, just make sure the choices fit your food plan.
Examples:
Lunch or Dinner
a turkey sub/sandwich with tomato and lettuce on whole wheat (skip the mayo), skim milk or juice, apple slices or salad instead of fries. Or get a kids meal size burger with milk and salad or apple slices, no fries. Grilled chicken burger, no fries, salad. One slice cheese or veggie pizza. Two pieces fried chicken (don't eat the skin), coleslaw, milk.
Breakfast
Low fat muffin with glass of juice and yogurt. Toasted english muffin, no butter, with peanut butter and jam, glass of juice or milk.
Snack
apple slices. yogurt. Low fat ice cream. Health Question & Answer

It is feasible to lose weight quickly but you should be realistic and understand that if you lose weight fast then you will inevitably put it all back on again just as fast. I lost 8 pounds recently when I had a wedding to go to, and I did it by following the guidance supplied on the website in the box below.Health Question & Answer
Fast food is one of the worst foods available if you're on a diet, so of course it will be bad. Of course, you can opt for the salads but most aren't that healthy either. Did you never watch "Super Size Me".?Health Question & Answer
Just pick the healthiest options you can since you're on a diet. It's alright to eat out, but if it's that often, you should probably not eat a burger and fries each time. ;)Health Question & Answer
