I don't understand why some of you immediately call this dumb (without first trying it) and label others lazy like it has to be one or another. Just because someone does this does not mean they can't exercise as well. I'm pretty sure Ayumi also exercised and watched what she ate to lose the weight that she did.I don't understand why some of you immediately call this dumb (without first trying it) and label others lazy like it has to be one or another.

Ok so I tried this last night. Wow, I almost drowned in sweat lol. It felt hella good though when I got out *only lasted 20 mins* I couldnt breath it was so hot in there. I hadda get out.Im gonna keep it up. I wanna see what my skins gonna look like after a week of this.

[ichigo_no_powder]

sounds interesting! I wish I had the time to try it..

[jjane]

that's what i do when i get sick... it helps sweat the fever out or something....
i just recently got sick... did this twice.. and i'm back to normal...
mind you i took four thermaflu, four motrin and a lot of oj and sleep during two days with the baths...
and now i'm more energized than before i got sick

This is my opinion, but nobody has to listen because I haven't tried it. Just some things I noticed.

The picture says 41 degrees Celcius... that totals about 105 degrees Fahrenheit

someone else replied saying the process is between 37 to 39 Celcius - I took the average of 38 and that's 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

Also, I have eczema and my dermatologist says that the cause of it is because of these hot showers I take.. I liked hot showers, but not even really that hot, because I can't take super hot water. He said that the heat broke down the fatty particles in my skin and therefore destroying my skin. The temperature that's best for bathing was lukewarm.

Now dipping yourself in super hot water that's enough to turn yourself beet red for 20 - 40 minutes, and feeling the effects of dizziness with an increased heart rate. I don't think it's safe. If I want to sweat.. I'll go to the Sauna.

I have eczema also. I tried this two times already and it actually cleared up my skin, but ofcourse right after i finish taking a shower i put on lotion right away(this locks the moisture in). This doesnt make my skin red because I wait till the water cool down a little till my body can stand the heat. The sweating actually improved my skin(remember ur not suppose to get the top body wet). And it is not everyday you get to go to a sauna.. mine as well create ur own at home.

I'd say it doesnt hurt if you try it once to see how its like.

[hanie]

i want to try this ^^

but i think it'll be hard for me to keep my arms up above the water lol.

how much is 8kg exactly? O___O

Even if u go to a sauna ur gonna have an increased heart rate. the heat speeds it up.

[x_lisaa]

wow! this sounds interesting, i think i might do this tomorrow when i get home from school. how hot does the water actually have to be anyways?

I'd say hot enough that it does not or doesnt feel like its burning your skin. If the water is too hot i suggest adding some cold water or wait till it cools down(takes forever).

[efflorescence]

I say this is a fad because all this is doing is helping you lose water weight by sweating.
Just heating up the external environment isn't going to speed up your metabolism or anything.
If this is true, then does this mean we all lose more weight in summer cause the weather is sof reaken hot it's practically a sauna?
Does this mean everytime we get a hot shower or go into a sauna we're losing fat cause our metabolism is speeding up do to whatever the heck it is this claims to do?
Dream on. If losing weight was this easy then we'd all be skinny as heck.
Exercising involves respiration where our muscles process oxygen and burn up glucose stored in our body.
That's how losing weight works. It's a chemical process, not a physical process.

[ayoboo]

I tried it yesterday and it was the most unpleasant feeling for me lols I stayed in for 20 mins and I felt like I was going to faint haha after I got out I took a cold shower and just went to my bed. I felt light headed ! I did sweat more than I usually do though ;]

[nadhura]

It sounds like home-made sauna...i'd like to try that, all i need is a bathtub, which i don't have..damn.

[back,sue]

the thing about exercising is that it makes you bulky and muscular.

[kpboy]

i want to try this ^^

but i think it'll be hard for me to keep my arms up above the water lol.

how much is 8kg exactly? O___O

17 lbs i think

[Melyxcious]

No it doesn't. If you're exercising to become a body builder, then yeah.
But if you're exercising to just tone up, no, you won't become bulky.




Anyway, what I like about this one is that, it's so much more easier for me to sleep
as compared to before when I would always toss and turn and stuff lol.
I sleep right away and it feels so nice x]

[efflorescence]

Lol I just read the first thread again and I can tell you're really frustrated with all my comments =P
Well you shouldn't be confusing people with the title Ban Sin Yohk 'diet'.
And plus it was in the beauty/health thread so what the heck was I supposed to think?
It was just my opinion, so please be a bit more tolerant of opinions if you're going to open up a thread.

[1S0ULL]

Even if it doesnt help you loose FAT , it helps your blood circulation which is really good for your body. There is no harm unless you put SUPER hot water and burn yourself T_T
After you do it, you feel really relaxed, so why not?

i think it has an advantage for weight loss, but i agree that you cant just count on the Ban Sin Yohk Diet to help you loose weight. you also have to eat healthy along with exercising too XD

sitting in a bathtub filled with hot water alone doesnt do much .

[owlsgo]

I've been doing this for the past couple of days, and i noticed i've lost like 2 pounds already.
I drink around 8 water bottles a day too-- i'm not really sure if its water weight or fat. hmmm.

It's weird, once i'm done, and get out of the tub, my legs feel like a 100 tons -- like i've been running for hours.

it does feel refreshing though.

[geebabyy]

i just tried it .
makes my skin all red LOL sorry i find that so amusing (yes i am easily amused.. )
but my legs got all wobbly after . wooooo .
and i cant tell if im sweating , or if its the steam
