STay Away from that kind of food! Its not clean.! Unless you have a Mcgrill, no sauce, and throw away the white bread! Then you will have good 5.6 gram of fat and good protien about 28grms. A big mac is 32 grms of fat 1294 of sodium! The point I'm trying to make here is , you have to eat GOOD food, not poison! That would be detrimental to your working out!
Eat Lots of good protien and good carbs. Veggies grain bread etc.

To the original poster - look at labels. Anything with a high percentage of sugars is bad. Anything with too much saturated fat is bad. Anything with 'partially hydrogenated' in the ingredients listing is bad. Stick with poultry, lean red meats (any beef with loin or round in the name falls in this category), fruits, veggies, fat-free dairy, whole wheat grains, unsaturated oils (olive oil) - basically the perimeter of the supermarket.
