The other day FitSugar tipped me off to this new restaurant in Tempe, Arizona. Imagine you head over to your local burger joint and are greeted by a bunch of "hot nurses." Okay, to some this is a dream come true, to others a grotesque degradation to women.

I like to think that I have a sense of humor, maybe you'd agree and maybe you wouldn't, but seriously I think there's a point when you can go too far.
Welcome to The Heart Attack Grill -- Yup, that is the real name. This new theme restaurant, where the theme must be Hooters from hell, has somehow popped up in Arizona.

Ever since I started my adventures in expensive sandwiches, I've been dying to try the ridiculously pricey Lobster Club at Neiman Marcus's Rotunda restaurant in San Francisco.

Plus, it's fun to pretend that I belong at this quintessential destination for ladies who lunch.

Drug Research
Topiramate (Topamax), an anticonvulsant drug used to treat epilepsy, is showing promise as a treatment for alcohol dependence. In a 2007 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, patients who took topiramate had fewer heavy drinking days, fewer drinks per day, and more days of not drinking at all than patients who received placebo.
Alcohol and Heart Disease
Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death among people who are heavy drinkers.

I'm 22 now, and I'm as depressed as ever. I lost my dad when I was 6, but I'm still mourning him, and I have no one to talk to about it. It seems like it was so long ago that I don't think people understand why I'm still upset about it.
