Here is another reason for you to join Twitter, for slim people worldwide are now posting their healthy food diet on ‘Tweet What You Eat’.

The food chart also gives the calorific value of the food. And because millions around the world see the online food chart, people are “shamed” into following their healthy diet.

Some report to have shed a good measure of flab.

Actor Stephen Fry reportedly lost about six stone in six months, using his Twitter page.

Comedian Matt Lucas wrote on his Twitter page: “Have lost half a stone in the last fortnight.” “Tracking what you eat using technology helps, as most of us are appalling at estimating what we’ve eaten,” the Sun quoted the WeightWatchers as saying.
