TV & Health : Is Your TV Making You Fat?
Posted in Uncategorized on 08/30/2010 03:59 pm by seozaThailand TV Now, it has to be said that merely watching TV cannot make you fat. It’s what else you are doing or not doing because you’re watching TV that makes the difference.
When you’re watching TV you’re not pottering around the house tidying up. When you’re slumped on your sofa in front of “Desperate Housewives”, you’re not weeding your garden or going for a walk or a bike ride. When you watch TV you’re using up only about 70 calories an hour, while playing with your kids or cooking a meal from scratch uses about four times as much. Just half an hour watching TV instead of being active and you’re talking the equivalent of over 38,000 calories or more than 10lbs of fat a year unless you eat less to make up for it. TV TV TV
