And now, the health report

CNN covered the story of a nutrition professor who went on a 10-week diet consisting mostly of high-sugar junk food. And no, this did not end like Super size me: he lost 27lbs. What lessons can we take away from this story?

1) weight loss comes down to diet and exercise. Diet comes from eating fewer calories. Exercise comes from the six year old level of hyperness that you get by eating 1200 calories of sugars in a day.

2) We now have permission from a nutrition professor to eat a dinner that looks exactly like the Katy Perry 'California Girls' video, as long as we throw in a multivitamin here and there.

3) Did any of you ever have a health class lead by someone who dedicated weeks at a time to the dangers of smoking, yet this same teacher would burn through a pack a day?

  1. I'm a firm believer in it comes down to a good 90% genetics and your luck of the draw in these matters.
