I definitely recommend browsing the selection at Collage Video, a company specializing in exercise videos, where you can preview the videos they have in stock. Also, read the reviews at Collage, VideoFitness.com, and YourExerciseDVDs.com. You may also find the forum at VF helpful, too.

In order to get more suitable recommendations for you, could you provide some more information? Specifically, what experience do you have with yoga and Pilates? Do you consider yourself a beginner, someone with a little experience, intermediate, or advanced? What kind of pace do you like: slow, fast, or something in between? Do you like videos set indoors or outdoors? What kinds of instructors do you like? Any special physical or emotional needs? That would help us give you better recommendations that you’re more likely to be happy with.

If u want a smaller stomach you will need cardio exercise no way around it.. U need some form of cardio for 40 mins.. Atleast 35.. As first 20 mins u only burn carbs.. So u can try kickboxing, spinng classes.. You would need something of that sort 3 or 4 times per week.. U should also consider weight training.. A few times a week for 30 to 40 mins.. The more muscle u get the more fat u burn..and u need to train abs everyother day for 5 – 10 mins

Cardio burns calories at a fast rate, which strength/flexibility burns them at a slow rate.
Yoga and pilates will help in the long run by create muscle, which burns more calories than fat.

But to burn a lot of calories, try running or another aerobic activity.

I seriously doubt she could have been treated for anything. Eleven years is an average life span for a cat.
But she could have had congestive heart failure if she snored or was congested.
Sometimes their gums and tongue turns blue and they breathe heavy for a while with that. It’s an elderly diagnosis for a cat.
I know I would have a very difficult time with the death of my kitties but rest assured you gave her a good home and loved her and that’s more than most cats get.

Oh, by the way, I have a female that snores and she’s not overweight at all. She has always snored and she’s only 4 yrs old. I think like people, some cats snore, some don’t.

admin answers:

You really should see your doctor and be tested for sleep apnea or nasal or throat polyps, or sinus troubles.

Some things to try at home:
1. The nasal strips (Breathe Right is a brand name). Those can help with snoring and for nasal congestion.
2. Don’t sleep on your back. My husband snores, but i’ve noticed it doesn’t happen if he is sleeping on his side. Prop with pillows to keep yourself from rolling onto your back.
3. Raise the head of your bed up on blocks.
4. Lose weight. If you have a thick neck, that will partially block your airway and cause snoring.
5. Get more rest. My hubby tends to snore when he is more tired than usual.
6. Make sure you are drinking plenty of fluids. At night mucous membranes dry out and could lead to snoring.

And again, see your doctor to be checked.

admin answers:

When you fall asleep the muscles in your mouth and throat relax. This causes snoring in some people when the muscles as the air passing through your nose cause the tissue in your nose and throat to vibrate.
Try sleeping on your side or stomach to get rid of the snoring. Sleeping on your back is usually the worst position for people who snore. If you still have a problem, you can try a “Breathe Right” strip over your nose, throat spray, a snore pillow, etc. Google those snoring remedies for more info if you can’t get rid of snoring.

Since you’re such a picky eater, your best bet is to design your own meal plan. First, pick a calorie goal. It shouldn’t be less than 1000 calories a day, but if you really want to drop some pounds, go ahead and go lower.

Next, pick healthy, filling foods that you enjoy and make 4-6 meals/snacks out of them so that it all adds up to 1000 calories. Eat that each day, and take an hour long walk each day.

No special diet needed.

There have been a lot of diet questions.
The key to a good diet is a rigorous excersize
and small portions(5/6) of meals a day.
Mind to take in enough fibre, which is found in many foods such as oatmeal, cereals and brown bread(mind the carbohydrates) dont take too much suger/fat.

Greens
fruits

drink alot of water instead of coffie or thee

admin answers:

It’s most commendable that you want to work together to loose weight. That way you will each motivate the other.
Modify your diet; read the Nutrition Facts labels; eliminate junk food.
Go for walks, together. Start off with short walks such as just around the block, then extend by going around 2 or 3 blocks. Explore your neighborhood, on foot; reverse the direction of your walks for some variety.
Consider bicycling. It has minimal impact on the body’s joints; it increases your metabolism; and it extends your range of physical activity.

admin answers:

Yeah, sure there are. The younger you are, the faster you lose weight. But don’t try fad diets, whatever you do. It’ll only make your condition worse.

You can start loading up on the protein, massively. You can get protein powder over at GNC or order online from GNC.com. The protein helps build your muscles, while also providing energy to burn fat.

But protein is half the battle. Exercising is the other half. While exercising, you will notice a little energy boost from the protein. Also, set short term goals for yourself (ex. I’ll run on the treadmill for 5 minutes), and try to reach those goals even though you feel tired. Then, if you’re working hard, you’ll see significant fat loss. You will also see that you start setting the short term goals harder than before, just for the heck of it.

admin answers:

I have the perfect diet plan for you but before I jump on to the meal schedule i will tell you a quick tip first. It is scientifically proven that if you eat 5-6 meals a day rather than your regular 3 meals, you will burn almost twice more fat. This is because when you consume a meal the body is designed to absorb all nutrients and contents(first the vitamins, then mineral, and finally fats and sugars) from that meal UNTIL you consume another meal. So if you eat 1 meal, wait 3 hours, then eat another meal, your body wont absorb as many fats and sugars as compared to 1 meal, wait 5-6hours, 2nd meal. I hope this made sense.

Below is the daily schedule diet:

Meal 1(Breakfast): 2 egg whites, 1 cup of cooked oatmeal
Meal 2(Snack): Fruit or Nuts
Meal 3(Lunch): Tossed Salad with 4oz Chicken strips
Meal 4(Snack): Fruit or Nuts
Meal 5(Dinner): Grilled fish with boiled spinach

Follow this diet everyday. Eat each meal within 2 1/2-3 hours in between. No meals after 9pm.
*Note: This was just an example of meals that you can eat, you can change each food category with another meal of the same category(i.e for your dinner you can substitute any other white meat such as chicken or turkey instead of the fish and for the boiled spinach any other vegetable will do)
Hope this helped!

Even if you feel you do not have a “regular schedule” to follow, it is possible to achieve weight-loss, especially if you really are dedicated, and you have good motivations.

The best diet motivation is knowing that you will have better health. But of course, feeling better also comes with looking better. You will be more healthy, you will have more energy, and you will be more confident.

It is very easy to achieve your goal. Giving a little effort and spending a little would assure you of real safe and effective diet. A low-carb, low fat, high-fiber diet is the best diet if you do not require tons of energy for work (for example, simple office work does not require a lot of energy). This is a sample menu, about 1200 calories the whole day. You will not spend a lot, and you will not feel hunger.

Breakfast:
1 pc toast / sliced bread
1 pc banana or apple
1 glass of milk
tea or coffee with low cal sweetener (or sugar)

10 am snack:
1 banana or apple OR
10 pcs of berries OR
1 cup popcorn
1 glass lemonade or juice

lunch:
open sandwich (no bread on top) containing:
1 slice of smoked ham (about 60 grams)
tomatoes, lettuce, onion
1 glass juice/lemonade/tea

4pm snack:
3 pcs of oreo cookies OR
1 palmful peanuts OR
any medium sized fruit

dinner:
1 100-gram cut of lean meat (if chicken, no skin)
1 1/2 golfball size serving mashed potato or pasta
up to 2 cups of green veggies or steamed carrots and peas
dessert: any medium fruit OR
1 golfball size of low fat ice cream or sorbet
1 cup of coffee or tea

you can do variations of this sample plan. Very low cost (not totally no cost ofcourse), low maintenance. You will not feel any hunger at any time of the day. The best thing is, these foods are definitely available in your own house, probably also the things you eat daily. And you will not deprive yourself so binging and mood swings will be avoided.

Throw in some exercise while you’re at it: jogging, weightlifting for muscle development, pilates for flexibility (there are websites that show some basic pilates moves), powerwalking for stamina building. Even regular day to day activities help – walking to the bus station, bicycling to the supermarket, mopping the floor, you can even do some jogging in-place while watching TV. Remember that a well balanced diet and regular exercise is still the best. Not only will you be kept trim, you will also stay healthy.

Remember that there are no quick-fix diets and exercises. Starving yourself and pushing yourself to extreme exhaustion would only lead to even more dangers, and a higher medical cost. The best way to achieve your goal and to get a healthier body is to incorporate a well balanced diet and enough exercise in your daily life.

There are several dietary changes you can make that should have you seeing results right away:

*Cut out all processed, refined white flour products (breads, crackers, pastas, etc.) and replace them with whole grain versions (“whole grain” should be the first item on the ingredients list)
*Drop the overprocessed junk foods – including chips, candy, cookies, soda, etc. Replace them with healthy snacks like fresh fruit or small portions of nuts
*Eat only when you’re truly hungry and listen to your body while you’re eating so that you don’t overeat
*There’s also some surprising new research about how the human body isn’t designed to process dairy and animal proteins. If you have the willpower, sticking with a healthy vegan diet that’s heavy on the beans and plant-based proteins is a great way to lose weight quickly.

As for exercise, the best type of exercise is one that you can stick with. I absolutely hate running on the treadmill, but put me in an hour and a half long hip hop dance class and I’ll push myself until I can’t move anymore. Find something that you enjoy and you won’t have any trouble forcing yourself to go every day.

However, it’s not uncommon for women to have trouble losing weight with just diet and exercise alone. The body is more than just a calculator – meaning that there’s more that goes into losing weight than just calories in versus calories out through exercise. If you’re having trouble losing weight, you might want to check with your doctor – there may be an underlying condition like hypothyroidism that’s preventing you from losing weight. I’m also a huge fan of natural, plant-based supplements that help boost energy and metabolism. Just check with your doctor before you start taking anything new – especially if you’re already on any prescription medications.

Hope this helps!

Yoga refers to traditional physical and mental disciplines originating in India. The word is associated with meditative practices in both Buddhism and Hinduism. In Hinduism, it also refers to one of the six orthodox (āstika) schools of Hindu philosophy, and to the goal toward which that school directs its practices.

Major branches of yoga include Raja Yoga, Karma Yoga, Jnana Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, and Hatha Yoga. Raja Yoga, compiled in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, and known simply as yoga in the context of Hindu philosophy, is part of the Samkhya tradition. Many other Hindu texts discuss aspects of yoga, including Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, the Shiva Samhita and various Tantras.

The Sanskrit word yoga has many meanings, and is derived from the Sanskrit root yuj, meaning “to control”, “to yoke” or “to unite”. Translations include “joining”, “uniting”, “union”, “conjunction”, and “means”. Outside India, the term yoga is typically associated with Hatha Yoga and its asanas (postures) or as a form of exercise. An accomplished practitioner of Yoga is called a Yogi (gender neutral) or Yogini (feminine form).
