I have had success losing weight with Bikram. I do not have a scale but I definatly am smaller more compact and I really think my legs are longer! I go about three times a week sometimes more sometimes less. Within one month I was at least one pant size smaller and (unfortunalty for me one bra size) I did not have a plan ie: diet. I just started to listen to what I wanted and believe it or not it was not chips, ceral, butter etc. so I just did not overthink it I did not panic and it just happened by itself. My food interests have completely changed…it is no longer this big priority to me. I have had a little holiday hiatus cocktailing a bit so I am nerveous to go to Yoga…I will be the one shaking until I get all of that out of my system! Good Luck!

This is so interesting to read. I live in an area where there is only one studio so I have litte to compare too. My second clasa I had to leave but I did go back in. No one said one word to me about it. The teacher mande eye contact to make sure I was ok. It took me over a month to get my grip on rabbit correct and each and every time the teacher would come over and quietly explain to me to turn my hands. Never once getting impatient. They did not humilate me when my first classes I came decked out in Nike gym gear, head band and all and was wiping my sweat etc. They let me figure out the experience. I have never felt lessor in a class even when falling out or over for that fact. Every teacher is different there and I too learn from each one.
I must say that I LOVE walking in there knowing I do not have to think about anything for ninety minutes, that someone is going to tell me what to do and I am free to listen and learn and breath. I feel most accomplished in that room, I feel most beautiful in that room. I love the attention I can give myself and no one else. I am there for a reason and it is the only time in my life that it is all mine. I have been fortunate not to have the marine like mantality teaching a class. Here in Woodbury it is a wonderful experience.

Hello. I too like to have a few cocktails. My experience has been that after each class I do not want to drink cocktails and I also do not want to eat poorly. Something happens in class and I am so proud of myself after a class I do not want to wreck it. I do know on the days I dont’ go to class I feel more inclined to make the wrong choice. It could be you are so proud inside that is all you need!
