Dear McDonalds,
If you recall I wrote a love letter to you a couple months ago. It was the story of us and how our love would always remain true. Yet, I am here today to tell you I can't keep up our relationship forever anymore. Our love is coming to an end and I promise you that it isn't you it's me. Ever since we have rekindled our love this year my bank account has been getting skinnier and my waistline has been getting fatter.
All of our late night meetings are coming to an end and our weekly lunch dates must slow down too. I need to put you down and pick up some weights at the gym honestly. Giving you up is harder than I would have ever expected. Something about a delicious $4 meal not knowing how reliable the meat is, just makes my mouth water. I think of how much food I get for so little and I wonder how it is possible.
Many people have been telling me for years that my love for you will catch up to me one day. Well McDonalds it seems that one day has finally arrived. Now as I mentioned in my love letter to you I use to put you down, even though we are breaking up I will still forever praise your delicious cheap food. Honestly, I will forever recommend you to a friend and maybe once in a while I can sneak back over to visit you.
Your all day breakfast, your sweet tea and your fries have hooked me, but it's time I finally let you off the hook. Even though it will be hard at first I know that with my friend's support (and sadly they are supporting me in this) I will be able to come out of this breakup better than ever.
Oh McDonalds I will miss you and all the good times we have had especially in this past year. I won't forget the late night runs, the walks over, and the surprise visits with you and my friends. I just know that it is time to move on to bigger and better things (like salads and protein shakes).
I must change my lifestyle and that means cutting some things out of it. Sadly you have not made the cut in staying in my life. I am sorry that this has come to this. I know in my love letter I said I would never look back now that I proclaimed my love for you. I just never realized how quickly you would catch up to me.
Thank you for all the good times we have shared. All the happy meals, mighty kids meals, main menu items, and dollar menu items. Without you I am not sure my life would be where it is now (I probably would be skinnier for sure).
I'll let you know if I change my mind about this decision but it does not look like that it likely in the near future at least.
So McDonalds, I will forever love you, but this is my goodbye. Sadly no matter how much I love you it seems my bank account and jeans are going to be much happier without you in my life.
Yours Truly
