Tanita body analizer
Just had this done at work for the first time for a weight loss team. Interesting results. It said I need to lose 42 pounds to be at my ideal body fat% and that my total body water is too low meaning I am dehydrated which I find interesting since I get 80-100oz water/day. Anyone else ever had this done?

Sugar addiction
Saw an interesting story a few days ago on either Today or GMA about food addiction. Really made sense. That certain people are pre wired for food addiction.
