I don't know about you guys but I prefer Pizza Express over pub food any day!
Had a great (albeit pricey) meal there the other day and compared to the pretty horrid pub dinner we cuisined on the other week it was a blinder.

Depends on the pubs you go to mate but most of them Have beautiful Munch compared to that of Pizza Express plus they've also got the added bonus of veriety rather than just Italian Food
just look at food as energy instead of a nice time, and if you don't burn that energy off you will gain weight, its so very simple.
if you find yourself snacking late at night just ask yourself why you need that extra energy intake, make food {energy } less about habit and taste and more about the necessity

If you go to the gym a lot then it might be ok, otherwise its Sumo time 
Subway? Is that a new chain of resturant? Where I live u have subways under the road in the local town, with the odd begger in it. I don't recall seeing food stalls in the London underground either, only in stations.

I go for he lives under ROCK!!!! *Starts rocking out *
Dunno but 'any' fast food places are as bad as McDonald, sometimes even worse. McDonald get slated easily because some people go there daily but it's no different from going to any chippy shop daily!
A Big Mac medium sized meal with coke - nearly 1,000 calories. Avoid milkshake because that will add something like 250-300 calories!
But I'm not sure about the fat which can be bad for your heart even if you eat under the recommended level?
I guess it is possible he has become so engrossed in rock and roll music that he hasn't ever noticed a Subway. Good point.
wow are you sure? a roast dinner is about 800 cals. that is disturbing if them numbers are true.
I went to KFC and had a "Wicked Zinger Meal" recently.
I decided to work out the calories and fat intake using the flipside of their tray inserts...
It worked out at about ~90grams of fat, and in excess of 1200 calories IIRC.
Pretty much the RDA for fat and around half of the the RDA for calories.
And of course, in reality their meals have been found to include more calories than specified...
Yummy.

People finally seeing the light about Subway
Get a real sandwich from a deli. I love to get chicken breast, mozzarella, tomato, basil and pesto in a toasted ciabatta.
Try a subway sandwich without any of their sauces/dressings... you'll realise how tasteless and quite frankly disgusting their meat and other ingredients are.
Wicked Zinger Meal/Fully Loaded Meal is great if you're just really hungry though. See I'm not one to denigrate all fast food, it has its place and as long as you don't eat it everyday you can have the odd zinger meal and big mac meal and still be healthy.

Yep but without Coke, it is 835 calories.
Have a look at http://www.mcdonaldsmenu.info for more info on its foods.
Also burger king's site is worth a look - http://www.burgerking.co.uk/nutrition/index.aspx
A whopper for example, a item with the biggest calories number isn't from beef but the bap! Beef comes in a close 2nd though.
If you look at Subway's site, the biggest calories comes from bread, not chicken or whatsoever in it!

Did you think you had died and gone to heaven? or hell?
when i have eaten a roast dinner i do not have to eat for the rest of the day again, its such a big meal and fairly healthy too.
A big mac is small snack that will not be the only intake for most people for that day, the balance is quite alarming, and i can see people easily going over there RDA who are on this kind of diet.
