Twitter to Help You Lose Weight?
Category : Teen Twitter
New York, NY (PRWEB) January 5, 2009
No longer just a tool for overconnected teens, the micro-blogging service Twitter has emerged as a powerful tool for communication, networking, and now… weight loss?
That’s right – with the newly launched TweetWhatYouEat.com, Twitter users can track their food intake and weight from their mobile phone, instant messaging, or the Web.
Best of all – you don’t even have to know the calories of the food you’re eating – TweetWhatYouEat’s proprietary CrowdCal database will automatically fill calories in for you!
While the CrowdCal database is unique, it’s not all about the calories says Alex Ressi, founder and chief developer of TweetWhatYouEat. “Unlike other food diaries, you don’t have to pick apart your food piece by piece,” says Ressi. “If you eat a cheeseburger, you enter cheeseburger in your TweetWhatYouEat diary – the database will figure out the rest. We wanted to remove the barriers that make food tracking difficult – this is as simple as it gets.”
TweetWhatYouEat launched in January 2008, and has a number of planned enhancements including a iPhone application currently under development.
To get started using TweetWhatYouEat, go to www.tweetwhatyoueat.com or just follow @TWYE on Twitter.

HCG Diet Direct cites a recent study conducted by University of Wisconsinâs School of Nursing concluding that balanced parenting is a necessary part of the familyâs efforts to aid teens/children in weight control and weight loss attempts.
Contradictions between clearly stated messages and examples set amongst the family are exacerbating the growing problem of overweight/obesity amongst teens. Many families urge their children to eat healthy, but then resort to fast food restaurants as a family because of busy schedules or poor planning. This provides children/teens with a mixed message and a learned lack of follow through.
The University of Wisconsinâs School of Nursing study concluded that using a balanced parenting approach helps overweight teens to improve their weight issues. The balanced parenting should have a focus in four areas specifically:
1. Mixed messages
2. Food and exercise as battlegrounds
3. Problem solving
4. Social support
Jenny Boynton of HCG Diet Direct responded, âParents are beginning to realize that personal bad habits become the bad habits of their children.â

HCG Diet Direct recommends parents of obese and overweight teens consider the advantages offered by homeopathic weight loss methods. The drastic weight loss provided by homeopathic HCG diet programs can reduce the risk for common illnesses and diseases as well as decrease the potential for problems with self esteem, general confidence and depression.
Health problems that frequently afflict obese and/or overweight teens include:
Blountâs Disease: this bone deformity of the lower legs is a result of excess weight on growing bones.
Arthritis: Teens can sometimes find themselves suffering from arthritis at an early age (the painful joint problem is caused by wear and tear on the joints from carrying extra weight).
Asthma: Experts have found a connection between the existence and the severity of asthma and unhealthy weight levels.
Slipped capital femoral epiphyses (SCFE): This painful hip problem is occurs more frequently in overweight/obese teens. It requires immediate attention and surgery to avoid further injury.
Sleep apnea: This condition is defined by an individual temporarily ceasing to breathe while sleeping. Itâs a serious problem for many overweight/obese teens. It leaves individuals suffering from a lack of sleep resulting in a lack of concentration/ability to learn. It can also lead to heart problems.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (POS): Overweight teen girls may have irregular periods (or miss periods entirely). They may also have elevated levels of testosterone in their blood. Too much testosterone can interfere with ovulation, cause excess hair growth, exacerbate acne, and increase the chance of male-type baldness.
Pseudotumor Cerebri: This is a rare cause of severe headaches in overweight/obese teens and adults. The condition is caused by pressure build up in the brain. Other symptoms can include: vomiting, unsteady walking and vision problems (these could become permanent if the problem is not treated).
Other common problems that are found in high percentages among overweight and/or obese teens include: high blood pressure, high cholesterol, fatty liver, gallstones, insulin resistance and diabetes, and depression.
Jenny Boynton of HCG Diet Direct responded, âWeâre seeing more parents coming to the homeopathic HCG diet program with their teens. Theyâre doing the diet together. Parents are recognizing that their role in the lives of their teens includes health and wellness. Itâs crucial to get a grip before the problem is taken into adulthood. Bad habits only become harder to break the longer they continue.â
HCG Diet Direct offers homeopathic weight loss products as well as industry specific information on losing weight, cooking healthy and maintaining weight after successful dieting programs.

The Healthy Teen Diet is a brand new weight loss plan created specifically for teenagers. Teenagers have unique caloric and nutritional needs because the teenage years are a time of extreme bodily and psychological growth. The creators of the Healthy Teen Diet plan have taken these factors into consideration and have developed a teen diet plan that includes nutritious foods from all of the food groups and physical exercise.
Http://HealthyTeenDiet.com
Diet plans that work well for adults don’t work as well for teens. This is because adult diets, especially popular, fad diets, cut back drastically on calories, don’t require physical activity and tend to cut out important food groups. These factors encourage yo-yo and lifetime dieting. The Healthy Teen Diet, in contrast, does weight loss for teens the correct way.
Nearly 16 percent of U.S. teenagers are overweight or obese. Factors that contribute to this include decreased physical activity, non-mandatory physical education in schools, large amounts of fast food consumption and huge amounts of time spent playing video games and sitting in front of the television and the computer. The Healthy Teen Diet is designed to provide teenagers with the tools necessary to lead healthy and fit lives. Customized workout plans, food diaries and a delicious and nutritious eating plan are just a few of the components of the healthy teen diet.
Overweight or obese teenagers have a 60 to 80 percent chance of becoming an overweight or obese adult. The fight is best fought when one is still young because teenagers and children burn calories at a higher rate and are generally more physically active. The Healthy Teen Diet is a well-researched weight loss plan that will help teenagers get their weight under control and take back their health.
