This adorable little robot is born from the MIT Media Lab. It can significantly help you lose weight and STICK with a diet. Here’s how it works.

I’ve finished week one of my weight loss journey; it involved whining and stalling but a few successes too.

Morning workouts can improve sleep, weight loss, and productivity. It is my firm belief that the majority of go-getters in this world are morning people. This was recently reinforced when I learned that President Obama rises at 4:30 am to get his workouts in. President Bush was also an early workout guy.

I was traveling through Montpelier, VT and happened upon the Coffee Corner Diner for lunch. It’s the kind of place you find in little towns (ok Montpelier is the capital of VT but it’s still a small town vibe) all over New England. You don’t really expect the food to be healthy but you know it’ll taste great.

I know this seems silly right? You stand on the scale it gives you a number and your done. Sheesh, Lisa this one’s easy … Well, there are a few things you should keep in mind.

You can not lose weight in a vacuum. It can’t be done. You need a team of people to help you achieve your goals or you’ll never make it. Your nearest and dearest, be they housemates or family members are going to have to help you get there. Below are some tips to get them (and you) on board.

Most of us want to lose weight and it seems there are as many diets as there are people willing to try them. They all come down to a balance between fat, proteins and carbohydrates, the basic components of food. But what if science could help you determine your best diet, whether it’s the Zone diet or Weight Watchers approach.

The faster you lose weight may determine your ability to keep it off and how much you lose. That’s the result of a new study published last week in the International Journal of Behavioral Medicine.
