I’m eating McFurries, I’m eating cinnamon rolls, I’m hitting Big Macs, I’m eating French fries," Maginnis said. "I’m just delaying myself because I’m going eat the whole thing. I’m just not going to eat it all in one sitting." Maginnis concluded that asides from his personal dedication, the other sustaining factor in his weight loss approach is hinged on McDonald's range of menu which doesn't bore him out.
