Continuing education

So how many of you made New Year's resolutions this year? How many include the words "be healthy" or "lose weight?"

Seeing as how it's halfway through January already, you might need a little something to keep your motivation strong. Remember, if your goal is to be a healthier person (for the rest of your life!), you need to make some changes to your lifestyle, not just what you eat.

Mr. PT and I recently watched a TED Talk that pretty much sums up how we have come to feel about our eating habits. It also touches on a lot areas that Mr. PT is investigating in his research endeavors right now.

Take a listen!
