Jared at Subway should take note of this.
Researchers at Tufts University have discovered that eating cheesesteak subs for every meal can actually help you lose weight. There seems to be a special enzyme in the steak meat that when combined with the fat in the cheese and the starch of the bread from the sub roll helps to break down fat.
The researchers warn that this is one of those diets that you can't simply stop and then pick up again. If you stop the diet then you'll gain back all of the weight that you lost and you'll have to start over again. Jenny Craig has already looked into incorporating these new findings into their diet plan.
Here's the story. Pretty interesting stuff.

Kat, I'm 99% certain that link is a Rick Roll. If so, you fail. Obvious Rick Rolling is uber-lame - be more discreet next time.
