Ok, we all have our weaknesses... So I had this strange thought last night while trying to go to sleep... I thought it would be fun to see what you all would make if you were a scientist. Something that would help you as an individual. No pill that would just eat fat either ;) or suppress your appetite. Lets get creative... :happy:

If I were a scientist, I would create a pill that after consuming 27 grams of sugar in a 24 hr period I would get violently ill. Kind of like the drug they make for people who suffer from alcoholism.

    I am a scientist, and I don't think it means what you think it means.

    However, if I were in magic land, I'd completely make a teleporter too.

    That sounds horrible! Why would you do this to yourself? Just add a TBSP of bleach to your water if you want to get violently ill.

    I would create foods that look, taste, smell like all of the yummy things that most overweight people seem to crave, but have the nutritional and calorific value of nil. Of course I would make these foods ultra expensive so that people didn't live on these foods (and of course make my millions) but I would bet many people would at least want to try it :)

    Or I would create a motivation pill. Upon taking said pill, all you want to do is go to the gm and work out and eat right! :P

    I think you got it wrong, my weakness is sweets... And I find myself very successful staying under 27 grams of sugar a day. I am saying It would stop me from binging on sweets... lol

    A pill to treat eating disorders and food phobias. Perhaps a zero calorie sweetener. That's been done? Oh barnacles.

    In that vein, I'd make a device that shocks the crap outta me every time I smile.
