Do you burn more calories playing video games than watching TV?

If the video game is DDR, or any Wii game that makes you move a lot (like Wii Sports) then yes. As for other games, they may burn slightly more calories because you're moving your hands, but probably not enough to make a difference in your health.


How many calories do you burn playing video games?

Very few, unless you play a Wii. So the age old question is can you burn calories while playing videogames and the answer? Is yes you can but I can't give you an exact number because it depends on what type of video game you are playing and your overall weight at the moment. Is it the kind that you just sit and use the controller? Do you stand while you play the game? (Incidentally you'd burn more calories if you do.) Is it the kind where you are physically moving your entire body or dancing? How avid are you at button mashing? Do you do it slowly? Do you do it quickly? (Quicker is better for burning calories not necessarily for gameplay though.) All these variables come into play and must be considered. Considering the fact that both playing the piano and playing videogames require you to use your hands (barring the exception of the occasional use of the sustain pedal) It has to be somewhere betwixt the number calories you burn playing piano and the number of calories you burn surfing the web. It depends on your weight and if you're standing or sitting or lying down. Generally speaking you'll burn more calories standing while playing a video game than you would sitting while playing a video game. And more sitting than while lying down. You'll burn even less while you're asleep should that ever happen while playing a video game. You don't have to play a wii to burn calories heck you could sit or lay down play videogames and still burn calories. The intensity of the gaming session may change the number of calories burned.

Where do I start with a program for diets online?

If you are on a budget due to the economy I would invest in a Wii game system. I find the Wii tells you how many calories you burn, how to strength your muscles. It is also fun to interact with family. You can lose weight and enjoy your family.
