Likewise. I don't eat and game at the same time... too hard to coordinate it properly.  So yeah... When I get sucked into an XBL Game Fest i'm usually just stuck on liquids... either water or some fruit drink mix.

hmmm lol in some weird way yes, XBL helps u lose weight....or at least stops u gaining

I only play while I run the treadmill.MartinRiggs15

It helps me lose weight because I spend all my money on games and have none left for food. :(

ICON THIEF!  lol, but I do agree. When I play games in general I forget to do almost anything, let alone eat.

only if you campare it to watching tv or playing offline.RevernedICE

i agree you eat a lot more watching tv then video games because you have to use your hands and are more in to it.  i dont think playing video games though is ever good for losing weight.  its all about what you eat a meals and how much you exercise 

I dont eat while playing games just so I dont get the controllers dirty.kenshinhimura16

same. i hate it if me and my friends are playing 360 and eating pizza and someone picks up a controller and gets it all greasy.

You should go on the WoW diet. Its where you sit in a room where its blazing hot no windows open. Just play WoW and drink soda and I guarntee u that you will lose some weight.

nope, it helps you gain weight. the vast majority of people that play live a lot, spend most of their time eating snacks and sodas... so they tend to get fatter. There was a thread about it like 1 month ago, and there was this guy who had gained 15 pounds since he bought his xbox.gp19

Well I sweat alot whenever I play I guess I just get nervous but when I get done playin It looks like I just got back from football practice. Since sweat is like losin weight arent I losing weight

No, you're just being dehydrated. The fact that playing video games makes you sweat should be your main concern.

forget loosing weight playing live.... i know you hope it will... even i want it to be real... actually what if it is real? well there is only one way to find out.... TO PLAY EVEN MORE!!!!!! :D  

try taking a walk, that'll help you lose weight. playing xbox live doens't. even though you're not eating, you're just still sitting on your ass the entire time doing nothing but pressing buttons (and if you're a pruberty ridden teenager, you're swearing and usuing racial slurs to overcompensate for your small stature and girly voice)

if you want a video game to help you lose weight, play DDR or Wii Sports boxing.

IF you are loosing weight chances are its not that your loosing fat, your loosing muscle- fat weighs less than fat, so though you can weigh less, you might become plumper than before.Odin945

yeah man FAT weighs alot less than FAT.... but besides that typo if you are starving yourself you do lose fat before you lose muscle because fat is easier for your body to break down than muscle.

Id have to agree with you on that one.  well im not that fat any way but i geuss if the fat people play they always eat any way so that would solve the people that said no

Um... *laughs* 

Lately I've been working out in between rounds. Sit-ups, pushups, stretching, lifts ect. Works great, feels like you're actually acomplishing something too. Packt

me too!@ i get up, and get another beer, slap the wife around for not gettin me my brownies when i asked, then walk back to the living room and start playing again.

Take my word for it, DO NOT use video games to lose weight. I had been on Adderol, for ADD which made me not want to eat, so I didnt eat breakfast or lunch. Then when i got home from school, i went upstairs to my room and played Halo 2 for a LONG time, still haven't eaten anything. When I finally decide to go downstairs and get something to eat, I got up, and my vision got very blochy, and before i knew i was on the floor, passed out for about 3 seconds. I needed to get heart x-rays, chest x-rays, EKGs, bloodwork. Please do not stop eating while playing video games, you'll regret it.
