Scientists from UT Southwestern Medical Center say fat from foods like ice cream and burgers goes to the brain and can control it. Their study shows once the fat molecules are there, they trigger the brain to send messages to the body’s cells, warning them to ignore the appetite-suppressing signals from the hormones involved in regulating weight for up to three days.

Okay, that just made my head spin, but I guess I should NOT have ate that bowl of Cookies & Cream last night. I’m in trouble. (and I won’t even tell you about the Nachos). Good thing today is a new day.
