How long can you stay in front of the computer.

Ya. i am also very similar to you. I would sit in front of the computer whenever i am getting bored. Normally i would sit 3 hours in front of the computer in a day. But, too much of computering will result in obesity (as u said). It will also lead to eye strain . To avoid this , we should take short breaks. Also, while looking at the monitor , we can navigate our eyes to other things at regular intervals to avoid eye strain.

seriously speaking friend..........i have a good experience of about 8-9 hours in front of my laptop............

Well. I can stay in front of computer for almost a day.. though once I sit infront of computer for 38 hours :O of course I had to due to lots of work.. :-)

I can stay in front of the computer for the whole day if there is food available. I also get fatter and fatter from my computer days when it is only screen time and food time. Got to go out to some exercise

Oh you are so slim, how can you say you are getting fat at all!? I cannot stay in front of the computer straight for too long because my butt will feel tired and uncomfortable, I like to do other stuff in between the time, it is too tiring to be playingon the computer all day.

Well for me I think I can stay up to eighteen hours straight in front of a computer. Cause in my work as a computer programming we have to meet some deadlines and we need to do it as early as it can, so almost all of the programmers stay up in front of the computer as long as possible .

in todays world every one is working on a computer mostly. so i think it is very easy to say that practically most of the time through out the day we are in front of the computer. i am a designer by profession and so i spend a hell lot of time in front of the computer while i am at work. and when i come back home, then also i spend a lot of time in front of my computer learning something or may be chilling out by chatting with friends on orkut and all.

If I am doing some kind of useful serious work I stay for more than 5 hours at a stretch before the computer. Though that includes some little breaks of 5-10 minutes gap. That's all. If I don't have any kind of useful thing I just could not help myself sitting before my computer and staring at it for nothing. I turn it off with in few minutes.

Hi, I'm addicted to computer. I've started compuerting 10 years ago, I can stay 14 hours sometimes a day, and I can eat while I'm computering !

I can sit for a maximum of only 2 hrs or may be a little more in front of the computer. I do not sit at a stretch and take a break for some hours, when I do some of my other jobs, and when I am finished with it I come back to the computer again. So on the whole it makes a lot of hours but at intervals.

hmmmm when im online, i usually surf for 2 to 4 hours, sometimes i watch 2 movies online that would be 3 to 4 hours... it depends, sometimes i get bored and i dont know what site to go. so i just sleep. hehehe... same here too, i feel im getting fatter and fatter! hehehe have a nice day!

Well i can stay on the computer for a very long time. when i just got my internet i stayed on it for 2 days straight while my brother look about food to eat. The only time i got up was to rush to the bathroom and back. My motherwas the one who told me to get off after 2 days

I sometimes can stay on the computer for more than 12 hours if I really need too. However, if I do that, the next day, I wake up and start exercising right away, as I do not want to gain weight.

now i stay in front of the computer for almost 14 hours. it is terrible but i can't give it up. Cry.....................................................

I am in front of the computer the entire day as I am a software engineer and that is what I am meant to do.LOL. But then the obesity thing and not to mention the other health issues can definitely affect us.So I see to it that after every 20-25mins, I take breaks and flex my muscles, move around and also do eye excercises. I don't want to end up with health issues in the later years, coz of my careless now.
