Wow . . . yoga! Anyone else feel this . . .?
I've been trying a yoga workout video lately, and I made myself the goal to do yoga every day this week.

I tried looking it up but all the estimates are like 80 calories an hour, which is ridiculous - if walking burns 200 cals an hour, sex HAS to burn more than that, right?…

They've done studies with rats that shows those who eat less live longer. Counterintuitive, isn't it? There's even a society of people called…

It's become very…
