...after my last yoga session almost two years ago, I’m back to it. Signed up for a 1-year contract with Pure Yoga, which is just one floor down from my office, so no excuse not to pop down for a quick session at lunchtime, or immediately after work. I’ve decided to do it 1-2x a week to balance out the Muay Thai and weight training I’m doing 3x a week; don’t want to bulk up, and additional stretching will help loads!
Today’s class was Satyananda Yoga Nidra – 12 rounds of sun salutations with a few triangle poses thrown in for good measure – followed by yogic “sleep”. Great sweat for half of it with relaxation for the other half – gonna try and make this a regular Thursday lunchtime thing for sure!

I’m still with a trainer (mine is Muay Thai), and I see him 2-3x a week…6.6lbs down from the exercise alone, and absolutely loving the muscle definition I see!

So I found it hard to stick to the South Beach Diet long term, so I decided to be consistent with overall good eating habits and exercise…I’ve lost 3kg (6.6lbs) in the last 4mths, and couldn’t be happier. People have started to notice the weight loss, and I haven’t felt deprived at all: I enjoy my 3x a week exercise sessions (muay thai boxing + circuit work with a personal trainer), plus I’m trying to be more conscious about decreasing portions throughout the day. I let myself indulge occasionally in junk food, this way I stick to a generally decent diet without feeling depressed.
3.5lbs more to go!
