Ht. 6'0, Wt. 180 - Tell me if this is bad. I live off of fried foods. This week I ate it 8 times since this past sunday. Tonite, I ate half of a fried onion thing and fries and an 8 ounce steak. I have been gaining weight lately because I never exersise. One of my friends told me that if i keep it up I could have a heart-attack by aged 19 or 20. Is this true? Please comment. Thanks!

you could have a heart attack but it is very unlikely with your age but you could develop diabetes which is preety serious as well

hey, yes u can have a heart attack becuase your ateries get clogged after you eat alot of greasy foods so just excdrcise more and you'll be ok or else you should be.

hey rob,
as you are eating all that junk food your arteries in you heart is being clogged with fat and plaque. eventually you will have a heat attack. it is ok to eat a lightly fried food once and a while but not all the time. i used to sit around and eat and i gained a lot of weight. now i regret it a lot because it's hard for me to lose weight. there is a theory that it's harder to gain weight than to lose it but i find it opposite. when i just eat and i for some reson have to eat again i have to remove my self.

Very unlikely - if you had one, it would probably not be to do with your health. I remember a news story where some teenage football player died of a heart attack - so if it happened, it would be because you had a weak heart.
However, when you're in your late 40's...

Is it possible for me to have a heart-attack that early though?

Thanks for the advice so-far. But since I have very little muscle, most all of my weight is fat. So I am very chubby.

fried food isn't good...try to have less of it and if it is fried make sure it's Olive Oil.

your not that chubby, coz your tall. your healthy but yeh.. fried foods are really bad for you! Just try to eat half of it as u usually do and gradually move on to less and less every week.
