Weight Watchers Partners with McDonalds?!?

Recently Weight Watchers has announced that it will be partnering with McDonald's by lending its endorsement to certain menu items. Please don't be fooled by this "healthy" food collaboration; this North Vancouver Personal Training team certainly isn't!
We at Team Fitness would like to point out some food for thought just in case you want to go for those Weight Watcher's approved chicken McNuggets:

1. -As George Stroumboulopolus of the Hour on CBC so succinctly put it, publicly traded companies are responsible first to their shareholders and second to their consumers. This is a smart business decision for shareholders and a poor health choice for consumers!

2. Chicken McNuggets gets Weight Watchers seal of approval.... Hmmmm Let's think about that one:
The Canadian Food guide recommends sources of Protein should be:
a. Lean cuts. OK, so "white meat" chicken breast is lean, right? Yes, good job you are on the right track McDonald's but somehow "a small piece of minced chicken breast and mechanically separated meat held together with phosphate salts and some chicken skin." doesn't sound quite as healthy as a good old lean piece of chicken breast.
b. prepared by roasting, baking or poaching. McNuggets are deep fried people! Only after they are battered, fried and frozen at the manufacturing plant.
c. Low in sodium. Chicken McNuggets (package of 6) give you nearly 30% of your daily allowance of sodium!

We here at Team Fitness know how we all wish that it could be that easy. Unfortunately it is not, it takes a lot of hard work, time and consideration when it comes to changing your eating habits and as a result dropping some of that unwanted weight. We know that this simple little logo next to an item such as the McNuggets will make a whole lot of people feel justified in ordering not just one serving but two or three. Join us, Team Fitness, in becoming an informed and intellectual eater and don't be fooled by these profit driven partnerships.
