For years I wanted to go to a Yoga class. Yesterday I attended my first class! I was able to hang for the whole class. So I was beyond thrilled! Afterwards my sister and I walked on the treadmill for a couple miles and spent some time on the stepper too. We finished up with a healthy fruit Protein smoothie from the gym's bar to celebrate! Can't wait to try Zumba and Pilates!!! Loving this sleeved life! Blessings!

Down - 63 lbs

I go to yoga class twice a week now. I love it! I've always dabbled in it. I have the "Yoga for Heavyweights" DVD, and it helped me find my own modifications. I've only lost 70 pounds, but I can't believe the difference. I take two different types of classes — one strength class and one relaxation class. After my strength class, I am dripping with sweat and often wake up sore the next day. Not only does it feel great, it's definitely changing my body into the body that I dream of having.

Does anyone do yoga in those rooms they heat to like 100 degrees? Lol

yes. I do a vinyassa flow in that type of heat sometimes. You have to be mindful of the humidity and aware of your body. Just stay in your breath and you should be ok, go slow if you aren't used to it.

They call it bikram yoga or hot yoga in NZ. I love it. Really hard but you feel amazing afterwards!!!

Yes I try to get bikram yoga in at least once a week it is a great way to detox. Hot as hell, but worth it.

Haven't been brave enough to try hot yoga yet. When I am in better shape I plan to give it a whirl.
