The Internet: It Makes You Fat?
This study linking weight gain to sleep deprivation, excess alcohol and too much time on the Internet rang a bell for me, because it pretty much described my entire lifestyle in college. Basically, I double depressed my immune system and spent a lot of time sitting around at the computer – I was definitely more active before I developed an online life. I am not taking this as an “O Noes! TEH INTERNETZ BAD!” I’m reading this as…yeah, I’m going to be more careful how I manage my time – and manage it so I spend less time online and more time going for walks, enjoying my balcony or making creative shiny things.
