it does burn some calories- but not as many as aerobic exersize does. i like yoga because it really relaxes me and it helps shape my body well. it's great for toning and just stress relieving. i guess it's not for everyone but it's sure great for me...

When you feel stressed about something you should talk about it and not eat to make yourself feel better because in the end you will end up being unhappy with your weight and you will eat more and so my advice is to talk to one of your friends when your feeling stressed or sad.

Start: 175 lb, Today: 135 lb - I just wanted to post saying that u guys shouldn't confuse all us michelles, lol. Anyway, this Michelle is the michelle that has been on this board forever, just to let ya know. I also wanted to share with u guys that, after the WHOLE winter of not losing weight, I finally just lost 5 pounds! Yeah! So from the VERY beginning, that makes it a total of 40 pounds! I started @ 175 and now I'm 135. All I have to say is take advantage of nice weather. Get out there and do stuff, it helps relieve stress! Go play basketball for an hour everyday and watch what you eat, and you can easily lose 2 pounds a week! Lots of luv-Michelle
