@-D- unfortunately SuperSize Me did nothing to curb my cravings. He started to get sick after a double quarter pounder, that's my appetizer. But there is so much truth to the line you quoted. I feel guilty/ terrible right after, like @mimico_ploak said. But like a heroin junkie, I just keep going back.
I think my biggest hurdle is the food prep.
Curious if any of the vegans that have posted already are raw vegans? Met a few people that swear by that lifestyle. Know a raw vegan chef that makes a surprisingly tasty zucchini cashew lasagna.

I hear you. Then try this , go to Mc D's and buy $40 of stuff for yourself, take it home and eat it all.
Or go look in mirror with your clothes off and tell yourself out loud, that's it...done being fat...1 less visit to Mc'D's
avoid for 1 week then go have 1 Mc double if you have to...skip the fries. I think the fries is what makes you feel bad after.
As for food prep, here is a simple trick I stumbled onto
get all your peppers, cut them up in slices/slithers/diced...freeze them in a bag
do the same for mushrooms and onions
all your staples are ready to go, just remove and chop smaller, be careful keep hands away as frozen ice causes knife to skip around...after you cut up or before rinse it off real fast in a bowl you are using to cook with or whatever to quickly get the freezer burn taste off.
eggs in the morning or whenever, scrambled or omelette ready to go
by the time your pasta boils in 9-12 minutes your sauce is ready to go with real vegetables
when you in a real rush and you eat canned soup, toss in more real veggies (frozen spinach too)...Ikea meatballs are good...you can dress them up teriyaki sauce if you want.
Since you have a large family, buy all those peppers for cheap from Chinese grocery store (5 for $1) the ones on the way out...cut off bad parts if needed and freeze the rest...and yes if one is bad so what, toss it in your composter (free fertilizer for your herb and flower garden).
You can do it...notice I did not say to workout just reduce the crap.
Also drink green tea with honey (no sugar or milk...almond milk ok) drink it in the morning and around 2pm...cuts your appetite and good for you.
start small and watch, once you drop 5 real pounds in a week maybe 7 lbs and your belt draws in 1 notch you will keep going
the moment someone says you lost weight you are looking good...you will just see McD's as trash...put that 'food' in your trash then go eat it...see it as that.
Don't get me wrong, the odd burger from McD's is okay.
It up to you to be a fat arse as you say or STOP and make 1 small change that leads to another.
Remember, your kids are watching you...plus it would suck if you caught a stroke and became a vegetable...no more riding bikes and no more hanging with your kids...what about your grand kids, taking them for rides on your bike or future Can-Am style bike...goneeeee
So I guess what you are saying is McD's is more important than yourself, bike, kids, family, grand kids...We know from your online posts that my list is what you live for but you are proving yourself wrong.
Wanna be a vegetable because of a stroke...keep going to McD's...pickup the burger tmrw and smell it, look at it, shove it in your mouth, then pull out your phone and look at the pics of your kids...now what...keep eating like a pig or spit it out, toss it in the trash and say hell no...my lids and grand kids need me...I wanna ride.
You can do this...now get it done...man the hell up and ride your purple bike...show your kids, they are looking at you Joe.
Show them they are #1 and not Mc-Craps.
