Some people can eat Mcdonalds three times a day and their metabolism will take care of it. Other can eat there once a month and struggle for a month to get that weight off. Don&#39;t punish the masses for the undisciplined acts&amp;nbsp;of a few. 1SG Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 02 Apr 2014 11:41:53 -0400 2014-04-02T11:41:53-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/meeting-weight-standards-has-been-an-issue-what-are-your-thoughts-on-the-selection-of-unhealthy-fast-food-restaurants-located-onpost?n=91594&urlhash=91594 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>First its an individual effort. They know to stay away from it. Second, I think its America not the fast food on post. You can buy a value meal much cheaper than a healthy salad. I can buy a bag of chips cheaper than a banana and a water. 1SG Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 02 Apr 2014 11:54:23 -0400 2014-04-02T11:54:23-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/meeting-weight-standards-has-been-an-issue-what-are-your-thoughts-on-the-selection-of-unhealthy-fast-food-restaurants-located-onpost?n=91598&urlhash=91598 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Healthy food is accessible, going to the fast food joint is an individual choice (which I myself do quite often too, just have to pay afterwards by working out harder) SFC Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 02 Apr 2014 11:57:02 -0400 2014-04-02T11:57:02-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/meeting-weight-standards-has-been-an-issue-what-are-your-thoughts-on-the-selection-of-unhealthy-fast-food-restaurants-located-onpost?n=550538&urlhash=550538 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="45204" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/45204-46q-public-affairs-specialist">SFC Private RallyPoint Member</a> my view is if the military wants to be honest with itself, it could do a better job of promoting healthy eating. I understand that the average PVT Snuffy wants his cheeseburger and it's a personal decision, but there is a hypocrisy in saying we need to be healthy and then allowing Taco Bell, Burger King, etc.. on post instead of healthier options. There is also the argument that those restaurants serve not only the Soldiers but the civilians and family members who are not held to the same health standards as Soldiers. <br />I do agree, healthy food should be more accessible (and cheaper!) than the junk food that is available. 1SG Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 25 Mar 2015 11:45:17 -0400 2015-03-25T11:45:17-04:00 2014-04-02T11:37:00-04:00
