I read in this health book , i think it was the healthy food guide that you burn slightly more calories sleeping than just sitting and watching. It has something to do with your body repairing cells and other stuff it has to work slightly harder than when you're just sitting.

Does watching too much tv affect your weight?

Well, sort of. Watching TV is a very passive occupation(you don't move around a lot), and if you don't move you don't burn many calories. And if you only burn a few calories it gets easier and easier to eat more calories than you loose over a day. And if you're eating more calories than you burn the excess calories will stay with you as weight gain.

Yes the longer and harder you play the more calories you'll burn.

So YES you will lose weight playing tennis.
