Hey there. I was searching for a forum for dieting and workout advice and I came across this site....hm. Most of you are guys,men, dudes, etc.
Oh well. I've been reading the postings and getting some cool info.

Any yoga or pilates fans out there? I'm new to this fitness thing. I usually stayed in shape by surfing, boarding, and dancing. I ate whatever I wanted, but that's not working anymore! lol.

I'd like to drop maybe 5-7 lbs and improve my eating and become more disciplined.

Anywho. Hello.

hey i dont remember what its called..
but if you're up for yoga stuff, theres this one type of yoga where you do different positions and stuff in a room for a certain period of time at a certain temperature. i know someone who goes in that room at around 105 degrees for 90 minutes and it helps with self control/tolerance and you're also sweating a lot.

It might help yourself to test your tolerance with the temperature and at the same time, you're getting a workout :)

yeah that's the name for it! I've never tried it but I thought about it but I don't think I could stand the heat. But I could see it being really good for your body. Do you do it often?

I just starte this past fall- around October. I'm fairly new and at first it was torture! It does feel great after. I try to go to the studio maybe twice a week. What's your workout routine? I also do pilates and speed walk. I want to try something with weights for toning. I heard that muscel actually burns fat? Interesting.

I don't really have a workout routine :/ but I mainly long distance run and swim ...I took a break just recently from all of it , and that was definitely a mistake for me so I'm going back to pre-track workouts tomorrow.
