In a perfect world, we'd all eat fresh fruit and veggies, low fat, high protein foods and fast foods would be non-existent.
But since we all live in the real world, fast food is a reality for nearly all of us.
Simply stated - Americans love fast food.
To answer the question of how much is too much, many nutritionists would say any amount is too much. Fast food is an overly processed collection of salty, saturated fats that offer little in terms of nutrition. And for the most part, the nutritionists are right.

A few months ago, one of our participants in my marathon/half marathon training program was having a lot of trouble breathing during a long run and nearly passed out. We had all been concerned about how thin she is and how she always seemed to have trouble running. She ended up having heart surgery to remove a blockage and, astonishingly, returned to finish the program and still plans to run the upcoming marathon with us.
