Writing will help you lose weight !?

That's what my new colleague claimed, she also claimed she only sleeps 3-4 hours per day! I look at her: no dark eye circles, no eye bags, looks fresh like a daisy & she sleeps only 3-4 hrs per day? Is that even possible? If I dont have at least 6-7 hrs, I'll look terrible the next day & no make-up will help .

Anyway back to her first claim. She said there's such a study & it proves that if you daily write about any subject that you are passionate about for about 15 minutes, the activity itself will help prevent your "snacking habit". Hmm...... only 15 minutes? What about the rest of the time? You can sneak in a snack or two during those times right? I told her that & she seem truly annoyed with me....lol..
