"  McDonald&amp;#039;s CEO Don Thompson says he lost 20 pounds by eating at McDonald&amp;#039;s. According to the Associated Press, his &amp;quot;McDiet&amp;quot; was just part of his plan for his dramatic weight loss. Thompson also spent more hours working out. However, he ate off the Golden Arches menu &amp;quot;every single day&amp;quot; and emphasized &amp;quot;balance&amp;quot; to shed pounds.

It was revealed at the meeting, however, that those items aren&amp;#039;t quite as popular as their signature burgers; salads make up just 2 to 3 percent of the company&amp;#039;s sales. This news comes on the heels of a 9-year-old girl accusing the CEO of pushing fast-food on kids. Hanna Robertson, a daughter of a nutrition activist and blogger, attended the McDonald&amp;#039;s shareholders meeting at the company&amp;#039;s headquarters and challenged the CEO during the Q&amp;amp;amp;A session, reports UPI. &amp;quot;Something that I don&amp;#039;t think is fair is when big companies try to take kids into eating foods, that isn&amp;#039;t good for them by using toys and cartoons characters,&amp;quot; she said. Robertson added, &amp;quot;It would be nice if you stopped trying to trick kids into wanting to eat your food all the time.&amp;quot; More From Delish: McDonald&amp;#039;s Posts Calories to the Menu  Thompson did not take the comments lying down. He responded that his own children eat McDonald&amp;#039;s and also cook with him at home using &amp;quot;a lot of fruits and veggies.&amp;quot; Do you think it&amp;#039;s possible that the McDonald&amp;#039;s CEO lost 20 pounds eating exclusively McDonald&amp;#039;s food?
