I have a combination Yoga/Pilates DVD (I wore out the video) by Denise Austin that kicks Abs! If I do both 20 min sessions back to back, I feel it for 3or 4 days. Gave me back a nice stomach right quick after baby #1 though. Now I do it about once maybe twice a week on my 'off' running days. Love it. I have a couple Randy Yee yoga videos that a friend gave me, but frankly it's hard to follow the TV when you are all over the place. I prefer to take a yoga class, since there are mirrors and other people all around to see if you are doing things right. Only done one though, just not enough hours in the day for everything....

The yoga class I took was more spirituality-oriented. I went to The School of Ageless Wisdom (don't laugh). The teachings were fine, a little redundant for me, as I was raised on "New Age" stuff, or whatever it's called these days.

I've been a gym junkie for a good while now, but have only just started taking Pilates. Its great, but I am still a bit unco-ordinated about the breathing.

Another class our gym runs is BodyBalance, which is great for core strength.

I've had 2 knee reco's on my right knee and must say, its perfect now

It's really nice getting in an exercise groove. I find myself feeling rotten unless I do my normal routine. Right now I feel rotten. Exercise is coming soon however.

You can try every fad diet in the book, but if you don't exercise, results will be inconsequential.

Sadly, only 15 percent of obese people in America consider themselves fat. The other 85 percent can't see the numbers on the scale.

Fat people are absolutely aware that they are fat, they just don't care about it in the ways that thin researchers think they should.
