Weight loss is hardly a laughing matter here in the Obese Nation where two-thirds of adults are overweight or worse but the newest  aha breakthrough in the battle of the bulge just might prompt a snicker  and maybe make you healthier
One can lose weight by laughing
No joke
Instead of yo-yo dieting try ho-ho dieting
Before guffawing at the notion that mirth reduces girth be aware that purposeful laughing is gaining a following thousands of laugh clubs worldwide now invite people to well laugh out loud together a hybrid branch of psychology called( laughter therapy)

When it comes to the weight -loss arena i ask myself is laughter a gimmick or a gift ? says Katie Namrevo of Bellevue wash some people dont take this seriously
But she does on the back cover of her book  Laugh it off weight loss for the fun of it  is a before  photo showing her as a frumpy 50-year-old and an after photo as a 54-year-old who says she  laughed off 35 pounds
Namrevo was a stress eater who had tried all the diets and pills she says they only added stress and she didnt lose an ounce
One day after watching a TV program on laughter therapy she headed to the fridge to medicate and decided to try laughing instead loud long and hard like a lunatic
Giving new meaning to the phrase belly laugh Namrevo says she found that laughing 30 seconds to five minutes as often as 10 times a day she no longer creved food she began losing weight and she had more energy and a desire to exercise Laughing is a happy and healthy thing to do she says
