Weight Loss Guides

Hi there,
Make sure you’re eating enough (more than 1200 calories a day), you get your thyroid checked to make sure its functioning properly and you’re doing a regular yoga practice. Don’t drink diet sodas. They contain neurotoxins. If none of that works, see your doctor. This can be a sign of many things. Let me know!! xoxoSadie

Hey…no problem–I’m glad you wrote!
What you’re feeling is resistance from a body that’s tighter now than it will be if you continue with your practice. It doesn’t let you move as much as I can in the video…YET. I think you just need to keep going, and you’ll see, you will be waving into waterfall warrior in no time;} xoxoSadie

Hi there! If nothing hurts, keep doing what you’re doing. As inner thighs get stronger, you’ll feel them some, but you’ll really feel it at the glutes and hamstrings. What’s “weird” feeling–painful? tight? Clarify this for me and I’ll letcha know.

HI there,
This will work for you just fine–it’s like an hour! I would maybe repeat some and do like 40 minutes if possible;)

Hey there,
You’re lucky–your metabolism is young, and high. Eat healthy, and drink juice, seltzer with lemon or water. aim for 1500 calories a day from good sources and do an hour of yoga 3-4 times a week. You should lose 15 lbs in a month and a half or so if you’re really dedicating to this. Don’t get too skinny, though, it’s not cute;)

Just keep doing what you can until you are more flexible, Chip away at the poses and you’ll get more stretchy as you go!

Oh yes. xoSadie

You will if you decide to;)

Do the whole 1-4 parts power hour, 3-4 times a week. You can practice any pose during menses, unless you don’t feel like it–then don’t. that’s just a myth.
Enjoy!!

hi there,
Do this hour 3x per week and you’ll be looking amazing by summer! Yoga does it all for your body, so practice away! xoSadie

hi sadie, i wanted to know how many days shall i practice this particular lvl b4 going to the next one? and is thr anything like u shudnt practice it during the menses?

Hello! I’ve seen your videos on yoga, I’m 13 (male) and I guess I’ve just started puberty, I weigh around 55kg or lower and im only 5′4.
I’m getting a little heavier slowly over time, and I’m hoping to get a normal body look by summer with all the trip to the beach and stuff and I was wondering if it will put me into shape by summer next year? (2009)

Hope to hear from you asap. Thanks!

Hey, that’s great! Thanks for letting me/us know;)

The Power Hour is in 4 parts, so look for 1 of 4, 2 of 4, 3 of 4 and 4 of 4. They make a whole sequence for the whole body. Do the hour 3-4 times a week for best results. Have fun! xoxoSadie

hi there,
Sorry I missed your post!
Glad it worked for you! Do parts 1-4, to make an hour of yoga, 3 times a week. Good luck!! Sadie

Hey sadie,

Just letting you know how i’ve been getting on.
I’ve been doing this for about a week now and it’s been great! After the first couple of times my body was so sore afterwards- which was good :). I noticed straight away that i need to stretch more after my runs- my legs are so tight, esp in my hamstrings. I just have one question- is power hour, just this workout doubled, or the one posted that is for beginners?

Thanks so much for your videos!
I hope you had a nice christmas.

Wow, thanks heaps! You’re so nice to do that. I will definitely give you feedback
Have a great christmas!

Hi there, no worries–I like questions!
If you run, you’re strong enough to do this–work into the challenging poses as far as you can. Over time, they’ll open for you. I would replace a day of running with this Power Hour, not do both on any given day, you’ll be doing too much and tearing down. I’d add on my Yoga for Runners video too…
Let me know how it’s going!

Hi there,

I was just wondering if you recommend starting off with “Weight Loss Yoga” for someone who has never really done yoga before? (Ie: me!) Would it be easy enough for me to follow along?
I read some of the replies you’ve given others- do this work out 3-4 times a week plus power hour once a week? Is that right? Also i try to run 5-6 days a week- do you recommend do this in conjunction with that?

Sorry for all the questions!!
Thanks

Thanks!
I’d do this type of strong yoga for 1 hour 4 times a week and eat 1500 calories a day, max for 6 days then one day eat freely. That should do it–worked for me!

This is really awesome… If i was trying to shrink my waist and thighs, how many weeks should i do this exercise? thanks

ven a glass of juice in the am is better than nothing, so see if that helps.She’s also going through puberty and she’s certainly not heavy by any means, so teach her healthy, stable eating habits now. And a mon/daughter yoga session three times a week for 30 mins would do her body [and self-image] a world of good. You’re the parent…lead the way into her soluttion, and tell her I said so too;) Please let me know how it’s going. xoSadie

Hi there,
1500 calories a day is pretty OK, but breakfast gets the metabolism running, so if she’s eating no breakfast, then she’ll be more likely to have a lower, slower metabolism all day long, and store more fat. If the body intakes more than about 500 cals at one sitting, it also tends to store. Watch what she’s drinking.. do you count those liquid calories? [continued below]

Hi there,
Draw your navel into your body in the pose, and lengthen your tailbone towards the floor [keep the natural low back curve in though] — your heels will go down lower. Usually though, we’re now trying to keep the heels a little lifted, since heels to the ground can be too much stretch and cause Achilles tendon problems and foot pain. So a little lift is good!
xoxoSadie

Thanks for letting me know you like it! That’s so great.And if I can understand you, your English is pretty good! Keep up the good work! xoSadie

Thanks..I like it too;)
I’ve been doing yoga for about 15 years, but I was pretty decent at it after two.
And most yoga stretches you, but it;s best to do a type that also heats you up and works your muscles, so they stretch better. Most of my poses do both at the same time, which is why it’s effective.
Keep at it and have fun!
cheers,
Sadie
