How they say the key to losing weight breaks down to measuring your blood pressure. And the Ground Breaking signs to weight loss. The researchers behind the personalized diet. Starts with knowing there is no one fits all solution. We look for the Silver Bullet diet that works for everyone. This turns dating on its head. We met up with the doctors at the institute for culinary education. The key to their diet watching how your blood sugar reacts to different foods. Too much sugar gets stored as fat. They studied blood sugar and the findings were dramatic. Different people react uniquely even when they eat the same exact food. It produced an unhealthy spike in others. To get results have you to suffer a little pain. Bricking your finger after meals to see what makes your sugar levels soar. Their algorithm will let you know what foods to avoid. We were taught to stay away from the white bread and go for the wheat bread but not always. There is no such thing as a good bread. It was individualized. And what foods to add to your diet. For some smearing it with fats like avocado and olive oil and butter, yes butter can normalize blood sugar. And all the preworkout bananas and dates could be doing you in causing you fatigue but foods that are less likely to cause the blood sugar spikes like meats and cheeses. I never met a cheese i didnt like. Which is why the researchers say that the low carb programs may work in the shortterm but not sustainable. It gives you a way for which best carbohydrates would be a healthy diet for you. Just thinking about that christmas cookie i ate in the break before we came on here. Once more stormtracker 6 live double scan right now shows us we are maybe in line for hot cocoa or warm tea. Its cold out there and on Storm Tracker you can see an indication of how cold it is by the type of precipitation we see down south and off the shore. That snow, a light snow shower crossing the delaware bay and falling apart and parts of Cumberland County and Cape May County not a big deal. Sky 6 hd, this is not the truth. In advertising, it looks like a nice, sunny day. Its sunny but not so nice for most of you considering how cold it is and how it feels with the breeze blowing around. And forecast highlights, today is cold and tomorrow colder and the next eight days we top out in the 20s. And may get lucky for a 30. 25 right now. And winds north northern west at 9 Miles Per Hour. And the current windchill of 16 that is what it feels like outside in philadelphia. And the same story as you look at these current numbers, 22 in allentown and reading and 24 in trenton and 25s in millville and cape may. And the windchills are making it feel like its in the teens and even below the teens in the northern and western suburbs. Here is future tracker 6s take on what it feels like at 3 00, this is generally the mildest time of the afternoon still feeling like the mid to upper teens in south jersey and 10 in allentown and reading and single digit windchills this evening even though the winds are dying down a bit. Satellite shows more cloud cover to the south and sun to the north. That is the pattern the rest of the way. And down south you get sunshine poking through and high temperatures in the region 25 in allentown and 26 if reading and 29 in philadelphia, wilmington and millville and highs 31 to 38 degrees up and down the boards and brisk with the more noticeable windchills. Here are where temperatures are going 28 by 2 00 and 29 is the high. And we are close to that. And the big story is how quickly we dip into the teens, by 10 00, 18 degree an overnight low of 14 in philadelphia. And single digit lows tomorrow morning, i wouldnt be surprised to see windchills down close to 0. Its going be raw early. And the trough of cold air from chicago and st. Louis and omaha. Getting below the latitude to the west and sliding east slowly. It will take a while before it pushes through. The exclusive accuweather sevenday forecast todays high is 29 degrees, and brisk and cold and sun to the north and cloud cover to the south and obviously pretty uncomfortable with the windchills in the teens and then tomorrow blustery and cold. A high of 26. And probably more windchills in the Single Digits and teens as we move through the day. Friday partly sunny and brisk and 29 for a high and still have the windchills in the teens. Then we get into the weekend and saturday we watch a weak feature coming through and a couple of inches of snow out of this. Some models have it and some dont and look for it developing in the morning and afternoon the way things look now. 29 on the cold side and because of the cold air in place, this will probably have the tendency to be the light, fluffy snow and a bit more than that in spots and back to a cold story for sunday and 24 is the high for new years eve and bundling up for the final eagles game and in the teens by sunday at midnight when are you out banging the pots and pans. On new years day it gets colder and colder. A high of just 22 and low teens at dawn, that is what faces you down to the mummers parade. And bundle up with all the extra gear and on tuesday, how much better is 25 . Not much. Is that a trick question . By the end of next week maybe it will feel better. Keep looking. One final check of the frigid forecast with david murphy. Lets get you the numbers. 26 in reading and the same elsewhere. Upper 20s around the i95 corridor enough wind to give you windchills in the teens and 30 or so along the shore. Thank you. That is it for action news at noon.
