Hello, nice to see a group dedicated to Yoga. I leaned on Yoga when I finally kicked my 25 yr smoking habit, it help me so much. It has been about 2 yrs now and I desire to start Yoga again and make it a daily lifestyle practice. I particularly love Kundalini yoga.

I haven't worked out in a month, I have been in a real funk.... I really need this....this is the second life-line, I received today!! Thanks, I am in.

I agree with fruttibiscotti, eating foods as close to it's natural state seems to be the better choice. Especially if you follow the clean eating plans.

Great Job, Very inspiring, thanks for sharing.

How often do you practice, and do you add any other activity to your regimen? I would like to add strength training.

I actually go to class 1-2 weekly.

Hi Sara, Good for you. I am a rehab nurse and as long as you do your research and or maybe get with a PT or trainer to design a plan so that you won't cause further injury you should be fine. Especially with spinal involvement you should consult your MD. Just take it slow and increase as your endurance increases. I have…

Hi, I am just getting started on my fitness plan. I have always wanted to run and just never tried. I am doing a plan I found at Prevention Magazine online. It really motivated me, I have a friend that just finished her first run and she really inspired me. I am concerned about the weight, but I believe that if I start…

My set is still sitting in the box, I had begun getting back into a healthy fitness plan in Sept, then I became very ill, and had to stop all my efforts. I plan on restarting using Body Rev on Monday. Nov 19, 2012. Look forward to posting my review and progress with the program, hope it doesn't bore me. I lose interest…

Yea i was concerned to with sugar content, but they are so convenient and taste great, the new 3-2-1 Plan contains 18g, which I think is a great improvement from 33g. I don't care, a lot of drinks taste terrible at least these do have a great taste and a variety of flavors, Instead of the SF boxed snacks, i am just doing…

Hello, I am looking forward to getting started with JM Revolution. I am still going through the material, it's a very easy to follow plan. I also believe the eating plan is doable but I will most likely will modify it to meet my own meal preferences, and use at a guide. Nice DVD / Meal Package :)

Hi, Welcome back. I am returning poster myself, I really like MFP, it keeps me motivated but I must be consistant, I get bored very easily I have been pretty good about posting since I returned. As far as my tracking goes, I work straight 8 hr /Midnights 2400-0800 so whether I am home or work...When I eat....I track,…

Hi, Working Midnight - 0800, it has taken me a while to get the hang of how best to track my meals. I changed Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner to (Renamed them.)....Meal 1, Meal 2 and Meal 3. I track everytime I eat, unless I need the calories I generally try to eat light during Noc hours eg..... fruit, cereal, soups or…

Hi Everyone, Just wanted to stop by and say hello, today is my Rest day and day of reflection: Week 1 is coming to a close, my assessment of my first week is ---It will take me a little time to get my nutrition under control but I am making many small changes each day. Finding a balance between nutrition and fitness is…

Thanks for posting your photos it is very encouraging. You all look great wow.

Hi all, My Zumba @ Home is going really well, I haven't made it to a class yet. I am alternating with strength training. Here is a great site to calculate your weight training calories.'' http://www.healthstatus.com/calculate/cbc

I want to use my DVD' s in between attending classes. I will begin with one a week. I agree the live class is much different than doing it at home.

Another thing about the newest set Exhilirate....it has a 55 Minute tutorial DVD, it includes just dance lessons called step by step. It made a huge difference from their other programs. Again, you can check your library to try it out.

Hello, I started Zumba this week at home with Zumba Exhilirate Set. I use to attend class but didn't stick with it. It is real fun way to get back to working out. For those that don't purchase the set, I just found out that my local Library has the whole set....check out your library. I plan on attending one class weekly,…

Hello, Today was my REST day of S90, I love it.Tomorrow will be day 3...... I did and have P90X also, P90 is a tough workout, I feel S90 is much better for the beginner and P90 is more for a more fit person. S90 provides alot of cues and time between intervals. I have been able to keep up with the pace of S90, eventhough…

Welcome aboard.....Fat is a word I never, Never use.....I prefer "FINE" I told my friend I am just too" fine" for that little dress right now....but give me some time... What's your plan. I started Zumba classes and I love it...the Gym was too depressing and annoying..I handle the classes much better,...AND have seen…
