Guyz, i read in a magazine that laughing makes u lose weight .. n it was proven by a group of scientists!
they said that laughing LOUDLY for 10-15 mins a day will burn between 10-40 calories which is the same amount of calories found in a small piece of chocolate!
so let's start laughing! :D

is it 10-15 minutes continously or in seperate occasions??

If that is true, so I am supposed to lose some weight. But, the fact is the opposite, I am gaining much more! :os

is it 10-15 minutes continously or in seperate occasions??

madrii wallah bes i guess continuesly!

lol... 10-15 mins continuously??... man someone has to do something really funny for me to be able to practice that... :mmhmm:

i laugh a lot! how come i dont lose weight :(

how can someone laugh out loud for 10 - 15 mintutes.. I think its impossible.

Hmm I guess that explaines me loosing my weight :D I do laugh a lot sometimes but nt for 10 minute that is for sure...

a person would die laughign for 10-15 mins

maybe they ment laughign while running

No I guess they meant laughing from time to time not continusly..

link to the article?

:hyper: ... this thread is sooo amusing.. its nice to see how people can make a big fuss over nothing!! :p

10-40 calories.. LOL do you guys know how much that is in terms of weight loss.. its insignificant!!

I'd hate to break it to you people, but if you really needed to lose weight, don't start laughing like maniacs.. :mmhmm:

...oh but by all means do SMILE people! :D

same is here :bored:

LooooL wallah toxic u made me laugh sooo much :D:D...
i dont mind going to fight :6:..

anyway those "scientists" should show a proof.. they cant just say 'laughing makes u loose weight'.. where's the proof to that :mmhmm:

10-40 calories.. LOL do you guys know how much that is in terms of weight loss.. its insignificant!!

yea.. its equals a small piece of chocolate thats all!! y3ni u lose 2 kgs a year if u just sit, sleep, eat n laugh ur whole life without doing any exercise!

Its amazing how all those things are supposed to make you lose weight..but dont actually work!! Even very strict diets dont! LoL

It's true if you are laughing while runing.

LOL @ Ice tea :p - I could probably laugh for that long ... I also heard its good for your abs and thats why your stomach hurts if you laugh alot... cool :D

Its amazing how all those things are supposed to make you lose weight..but dont actually work!! Even very strict diets dont! LoL

exactly my point!

i'm sorry to break it to you guys, but the amount of calories you burn during laughing is not enough for you to lose weight.

Losing weight depends on you losing more calories than you take in, and so in order to do that, you need to decrease the input, i.e. the food you take, and increase the burning of calories, which can only be done i'm afraid by exercise. Burning 40 calories is nothing when it comes to controlling your weight, you need to burn a lot more!

Seeing a fat person laugh is just gross...
Sounds like as if theyre choking...

That's offensive don't you think?

You have no right to judge a person by their weight, so please lets not post any of these comments over here!

I'm not judging anyone...
I'm just saying I think its gross to see a fat person laugh...
I mean really...
And no its not rude!
It would be evil and rude and unhuman if i said something about a disease or whatever.
Being fat...
Is digsuting.
Fat people have low self esteem and no self confidence and whatever...
Now THATS judging a person by their weight!

hahahaha
Silly...

I believe laughing does make you lose weight..I also believe that it keeps you looking young..if someone has a stressful life they will age faster..whatever the surroundings are..it effets the body in ways you couldn't imagine...I aslo believe that joy,laughter and happiness play a huge role in curing illnesses...I once heard that this man was sick and they told him that there really wasn't anything they could do but they gave him some medicine for pain..but he believed with all his heart that he will get better and he had positive thoughts and amazingly he was cured..it just goes to show you that even something simple as positive thoughts,laughter and joy can really help to better your lives and live longer..

gosh you're funny..i never imagined what a fat person would look like if they were laughing...well i guess now i know..thanks for the describtion! :)

i watched fawlty towers: made me laugh so much i almost couldn't breathe... seriously... how many calories would that be? :mmhmm:... I mean... come on... get real... listen to Dr. N..... unless u keep laughing the whole day (unlikely)... only then would u probably lose a few grams ... hmm... not worth it now, is it?.....

I just got this idea...

Maybe if a few sabla members are interested, we can start having our own exercise program, not now, because I've got finals coming up so I'm not around that much, but once I'm done.

We can decide on a day to day or maybe week to week exercise, and members can come here, ask for tips, tell us how hard or easy their work out was, and any changes that they are starting to notice..

So who likes the idea?

count me in Dr.N, cool idea!

Guyz, i read in a magazine that laughing makes u lose weight .. n it was proven by a group of scientists!


.. thats a bad news for me .. coz i want to put on some weight and im laughin all the time!! .. acording to that theory, i have to stop laughin to gain some weight!! :think: *if i do that i will end up like loo7 :os *

I'm in (......)

Cool!

So we've got two mods in for now.

Hopefully by the time I finish my exams we'll have more. I'm so looking forward to this, lol.

btw when do u finish?

As for me i think the oposit is true , but as u say friend this would explain why clowns are so thin :)

What are you going to do?
Make a laughing track?
I dont think that will help...
How about working out and cutting on the chips chocolate and soda...
Its simple really.

So how many of you are fat anyways?

.. thats a bad news for me .. coz i want to put on some weight and im laughin all the time!! .. acording to that theory, i have to stop laughin to gain some weight!! :think: *if i do that i will end up like loo7 :os *

I guess the solution is get married and laugh :D

I finish on the 19th of July.

Frozen echo, we don't have to be fat to decide to work out and keep fit!

Not a bad idea Dr. N.....but I dont need to loose anymore weight...mom says I'm too skinny...lol

istead of killing urself by laughing for 15 minutes.. better to walk or run to lose the same amount of calories...
every movement by ur body consumes calories....
