My Dear McDonald's, It's not me - it's you.

I love food. I actually really like healthy food like fish, veggies and fruits. I usually don't eat large amounts of things, but I do have two major vices.

The first is bread. I could sit down and eat an entire bread basket. I'm not kidding, I've done it before. I crave bread like crazy. I'm usually not a big volume eater, but when it comes to bread I'm done. I love it. About a month ago I was at home alone and stressed out, and I actually ate an entire pan of crescent rolls. That's right - a pan of crescent rolls. That was my entire dinner -  8 rolls. That's cute isn't it? It's not? Yeah, I don't think so either. So my plan as of now, is to try to avoid bread as much as possible. I had a piece yesterday and had to drink five bottles of water in a four hour period to keep from eating more bread. Hey, it's not a perfect process, but it's baby steps, and at least I'm hydrated.

My other vice is McDonald's. There's not a lot of things I'll eat there, but the things I do - I love. At this very moment I'm thinking how delicious a sausage biscuit would be. I swear to God, there's crack in those biscuits. When I think about it, McDonald's is my comfort food, which is really kind of odd.
So after careful consideration, I've decided to break up with McDonald's - a relationship that's lasted a lifetime. It's going to be tough, but it must be done. Here's my goodbye to the golden arches:


My Dear McDonald's,
You had me at Happy Meal.  Your delicious crunchy fries and yummy hamburgers, and don't even get me started or your fantastic sausage biscuits or perfectly mixed ice cold coca-colas.

You've always been there. You're everywhere, so easy to access. You're drive thru so quick, so anonymous - and at the time, so guilt free.

While you're cheap and convenient, and that's not really what I'm looking for in a food right now. So I'm writing to say we're broken up. It may hurt for a moment, but you have "Billions" more to serve, I'm just not going to be one of them. I'm sorry my dear McDonald's, it's not me - it's you.
