You are 100% right!

Thermodynamics and Couch Potatoes
As we all know, it takes 1 calorie to heat 1 gram of water 1 degree centigrade. Translated into meaningful terms, this means that if you eat a very cold dessert (generally consisting of water in large part), the natural processes which raise the consumed dessert to body temperature during the digestive cycle literally sucks the calories out of the only available source, your body fat.

For example, a dessert served and eaten at near 0 degrees C (32.2 deg. F) will in a short time be raised to the normal body temperature of 37 degrees C (98.6 deg. F). For each gram of dessert eaten, that process takes approximately 37 calories as stated above. The average desser tportion is 6 oz, or 168 grams. Therefore, by operation of thermodynamiclaw, 6,216 calories (1 cal./gm/deg. x 37 deg. x 168 gms) are extracted from body fat as the dessert's temperature is normalized.

Allowing for the 1,200 latent calories in the dessert, the net calorie loss is approximately 5,000 calories.

Obviously, the more cold dessert you eat,the better off you are and the faster you will lose weight, if that is your goal.

This process works equally well when drinking very cold beer in frosted glasses. Each ounce of beer contains 16 latent calories, but extracts 1,036 calories (6,216 cal. per 6 oz. portion) in the temperature normalizing process. Thus the net calorie loss per ounce of beer is 1,020 calories. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to calculate that 12,240 calories (12 oz. x 1,020 cal./oz.) are extracted from the body in the process of drinking a can of beer.

Frozen desserts, e.g., ice cream, are even more beneficial, since it takes 83 cal./gm to melt them (i.e., raise them to 0 deg. C) and an additional 37 cal./gm to further raise them to body temperature. The results here are really remarkable, and it beats running hands down.

Unfortunately, for those who eat pizza as an excuse to drink beer, pizza (loaded with latent calories and served above body temperature) induces an opposite effect. But, thankfully, as the astute reader should have already reasoned, the obvious solution is to drink a lot of beer with pizza and follow up immediately with large bowls of ice cream.

We could all be thin if we were to adhere religiously to a pizza, beer, and ice cream diet.

LOL ... I just emailed it to my husband!

Woo hoo! I shall live to be 150!

EDIT: Oh... I guess not. I'll have to settle for 100.

Unless they used blind men for the control group, that study is fatally flawed!

Lol Crayon, you had to remind me of this, didn't you? And now I find it's a fake??! Hmmmm... I dunno... now I've lost all faith in you, dear... ;)

Too bad the food "calorie" is actually a kilocalorie or 1000 of those "true" calories which will raise the temperature of water ... so unfortunately, while your theory is correct in principle, the stated result is off by three orders of magnitude, and the net caloric loss to heat the dessert to body temperature is about 7 "calories" of body fat, or about 1/1000 of a pound.

Never seen that before but certainly good news ;-) Now, How to convince the other half that I should not get into trouble when looking at the beach :-))

You've never seen the article, or you've never seen breasts?
