Slim Down With Hot Chocolate?

Can hot chocolate really help you lose weight?  According to scientists at MIT, yes it can!  In a recent study, they found that the combination of cocoa powder and 8 oz of milk provides nearly half of the recommended dietary allowances of tryptophan, an amino acid needed to elevate your serotonin levels.  So what does serotonin have to do with losing weight?  The powerful neurotransmitter blocks the tendency to eat impulsively making it a natural appetite suppressant and mood regulator which can result in you slimming down!

The bottom line is that you can enjoy hot chocolate, just be careful to not overdo it.  You can also get the same serotonin boosting effects from other healthy foods such as bananas and oatmeal.

In case you’re interested in the bike, it’s a Paul Frank Skurvy beach cruiser and you can pick up one for yourself here for $360.

Do any of you ride bikes regularly? Anyone have any good resources for great bikes?

DWTS’s Cheryl Burke Shows Off Her Bikini Bod

Dancing With The Stars choreographer, Cheryl Burke, was spotted splashing in ocean in Hawaii and showing off her bikini body! She obviously keeps in great shape by dancing but Cheryl also dished on her diet in a recent interview.

Cheryl says she’s always on the go and has a super busy schedule but always makes time for breakfast.

When I do have time to sit down, I make an egg-white omelet with turkey and mushrooms, and a side of fruit.

As for her lunch, Cheryl says she will often head to Whole Foods when she’s working to pick up a

salad with tuna, cucumbers, tomatoes and balsamic vinaigrette

Cheryl snacks on tuna or almonds during the day and

and eats a light dinner of fish and veggies, making sure to leave three hours to digest dinner before bed.

So, does she ever cheat? Of course! She says,

I don’t have much of a sweet tooth, but sometimes I do cheat—I don’t really even like cheese, but once I start eating brie, I can’t stop! And if I’m out at a Mexican restaurant with chips and guacamole, well, I have to have a blindfold on.
