Or is the effort ultimately a wash, triggering hunger pangs that make you replace everything you burned and then some?

3D Printers Finally Fulfill Their Grand Purpose With Burritob0t 3D printers are pretty amazing, but they have so much more potential. There must be some higher purpose for 3D printers that’s just waiting around the corner. A recent graduate student of New York’s Tisch School for the Arts has found that higher purpose. Meet Burritob0t, a 3D printer that makes edible burritos. It shocks me that the idea hasn’t come up sooner as the burrito is only second to bacon as the ultimate nerd food. It was invented by Marko Manriquez for his final project as a graduate student. Before you ask, the Burritob0t doesn’t make what you would consider the traditional burrito. The food paste part sounds unappealing, but Manriquez has a good reason for his decision beyond it just being practical. For now, Manriquez will be starting up a Kickstarter for Burritob0t.

Drop 5 Pounds in a Week Ban White Bread and Pasta Cutting out all white grain products — such as white rice, spaghetti, sandwich rolls — will instantly slim you down because the simple carbs in these foods cause bloating, especially around your belly. "Simple carbohydrates wreak havoc on your weight because they're digested very quickly, leaving you hungry and more likely to overeat later," says Jana Klauer, MD, author of The Park Avenue Nutritionist's Plan. To go a step further, instead of replacing them with healthier yet still bloat-triggering whole-grain bread products, substitute vegetables for the week. Do Cardio 30 Minutes a Day Any workout that gets your heart rate up will burn calories. Three to consider: spinning, cardio kickboxing, and boot-camp workouts. You'll burn even more calories per session if your workout incorporates interval training: alternating short bursts of intense cardio with slower activity.
