How Many Calories In Fast Food, Despite the many gimmicks, fad diets and seemingly infinite sources of bad information, the single biggest factor in weight control is calories. More specifically, the relationship between how many calories your body burns per day and how many calories you consume (as in eat or drink) per day. What I mean is...
Consuming more calories than you burn = weight gain
Burning more calories than you consume = weight loss
Consuming and burning the same number of calories = weight maintenance
So, if you currently have weight to lose or just want to prevent yourself from ever having weight to lose, the most important and all around useful thing you can do diet-wise is pay attention to your calorie intake.
The thing is, one of the most common food choices for the average person is fast food. That's a fact. And, as if this is going to be a shock to anyone on the planet, fast food is one of the worst high calorie offenders. That's another fact. The combination of these two facts is... well... not-so-good.
Now, while I can't stop fast food restaurants from selling foods that are laughably high in calories, and I certainly can't stop people from eating fast food (it's convenient, cheap and yummy, I know), what I can attempt to do is assist in the making of better choices. Or, in this case, prevent the making of the worst ones.
To do this, I went through the nutrition facts of literally every single item from the menus of 25 popular fast food restaurants (full list of included restaurants can be found at the end of this) to put together a list of what ended up being the 272 Fast Food Items Highest In Calories.
