Luckily my job is active as well but whenever I do find the need to sit in front of a computer I make a point of pulling my belly button in and out towards my spine essentially flexing my stomach muscles as though you're doing a sit up without laying down. Do it long enough and you'll actually 'feel the burn'

Just mix 1 cup of natural peanut butter, with 1/2 cup honey and 3 cups of oatmeal (not the quick serve ones).

I'm also new to groups/message board discussions so we'll just have to learn as we fumble our way through lol I have to say, if that's you in your profile photo you've been blessed with some great genes!!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I am proud of my progress don't get me wrong, I guess I just expected to have more drastic results given the drastic diet and fitness changes I've made. I know weight lose is said to best more sustainable if it doesn't come off too quickly, but dang it discouraging not seeing a lower…

I personally haven't tried it but a friend of mine has and initially had the same issue as you (the impatience/boredom). She gave it up as a result but after being hounded by her hubby she tried a different place and fell completely in love with it. Perhaps its not the yoga itself that bored you, but the environment?
