losing weight

[anglinsbees]

Congratulations!
Big Cheer to you!

I've been working on myself for the last year and a half.(Longer 
really, but the last year and a half is finally working!)
I have managed to go from a size 14+ down to a size 6 - 8. (Yeah me!)

Have been watching what I'm eating (Recorded everything I put in my 
mouth for a month or so to get a real Idea whre the calories were 
coming from- beverages were one of my big problems. Bottled Iced tea 
has a suprising number of empty calories.) and doing Yoga 2-3 times 
a week.

Yoga has done wonders for me- my back no longer hurts, I'm stronger, 
more flexible, and just plain feel better.  My favorite classes are 
a form of Hatha Yoga called Anusara Yoga.  It focuses on Bodily 
alignment to prevent injury or aggiravation of previous injuries. 
(Knee and other joint injuries are common in yoga enthusiasts 
because many forms of Yoga don't keeps the joints safe. Anusara yoga 
focuses on keeping the joints safe and properly aligned with the 
rest of the body.)

I can't say it'd work for everyone, but it has done wonders for me!
