Another new study finds that a second form of brown fat can be created from ordinary white fat by exercise . Of course, researchers say, they are not blind to the implications of their work. If they could turn on brown fat in people without putting them in cold rooms or making them [...] Full article at  nytimes.com I wouldn't be surprised if the brown fat within the white fat is a precursor that migrates to the areas where we store it long-term (sides of neck, along spine, etc.) and matures there into it's final form as a metabolic powerhouse. Also, many thanks to my mom and dad for saving energy and reduci...

CREDIT: NASA/LMSAL View full size image On your 2012 calendar, be sure to put a big red circle around June 5.  On that day, a celestial occurrence that will not be seen by human eyes until well into the 22nd century — the year 2117 to be exact — will take place. The planet Venus will cross the face of the sun . Through the balance of this winter season and well into the spring of 2012, Venus will gradually climb higher in the sky and grow progressively brighter, eventually becoming an "evening lantern" for those commuting home from work and school.

It’s no secret that I believe in the importance of self acceptance . For many, this brings up a lot of fears about what will happen if they decide to love and accept themselves. Many overweight women believe that to love and accept their body means that they have to give up on weight loss.

You honor it. You put it on your list of priorities. You do the work. This means eating when you are hungry . Stopping when you’re full . Bathing. Moving joyfully. Resting when you are tired. Giving yourself some space. Feeling your feelings . Changing your beliefs and thoughts . And when you do those things, lasting change is not only possible – it is inevitable. In the beginning, the idea of doing all of that can be overwhelming. Trust me, I know. But I also know that in order to truly care for ...
