Losing weight is one of the most sought after goals by most people. In fact, it ranked among the top searches in the Google search engine. There are many ways to lose weight but recently, people are turning their attention to yoga to shed off some pounds. It has to make you wonder, does it work? Yoga without a doubt comes with a boatload of benefits. The most obvious ones are increased flexibility and stress reduction. But today our focus is on yoga for weight loss. I will be telling you if yoga works for losing weight and most importantly how to get the best results possible. So, before you join that yoga class, I suggest you read on to know exactly what you are getting yourself into.
Many people are increasingly getting concerned about their metabolic disorders and expanding waistlines and have turned to yoga for redemption. But does it work? My answer to this is a resounding yes. Over the years, yoga has proven to be a very effective tool for losing weight despite the common belief that yoga is a regime for only fit people who are looking to increase their flexibility. Yoga comes in handy when losing weight because it has breathing exercises that immensely increase your heart and metabolic rate. Increased heart and metabolic rate mean that you are burning calories using yoga which translates to weight loss. Yoga increases flexibility since it involves poses and twisting of your body hence activating your muscles. This not only promotes fat burning around your muscles but also immense muscle building. In addition to that, it strengthens your core and stamina upping your metabolic rate. Combine yoga with a good diet and in no time, you will notice a change in your weight.
Now that we have established that yoga is great for weight loss, how often should it be done for it to be effective? The amount of weight you lose during yoga depends on the intensity of your sessions and the poses you incorporate. Different types of yoga, burn different amounts of calories with Vinyasa yoga being the most effective in losing weight. However, the rule of thumb is to practice Yoga at least 3 to 4 times a week in order to see any changes. I have to strongly emphasize on maintaining good form while posing as some poses can be quite injurious if done wrong. Also, keep in mind that a good diet is a key to weight loss. No matter how much yoga you do, without a healthy diet, you are wasting your time. It is important to also note that there are different forms of yoga and not all of them redesigned to burn calories. Some of the yoga exercises such as meditative stillness and reclined poses are great for attaining a calm mind and dont do much for weight loss. You can, however, argue that stress is a major contributor to gaining weight and in this case, the above-mentioned poses can be great for combating stress and ultimately, lead to weight loss.
1. The Boat Pose If you are looking to shed some of the stubborn belly fat this pose is highly effective. All you need to do here is basically lie down on your back in a v-shaped position. Hold the position for approximately 10 seconds and watch your belly fat melt. Dont hesitate to increase the period of your poses every time this pose gets too simple for you.
2. The Upward Plank This pose works your wrists, arms, shoulders and back muscles while strengthening your overall body muscles. It may be challenging for a beginner but with time, you will build endurance and master the pose. The upward plank works your core hence you will attain better balance after a few poses. It is also great and very effective for the respiratory system. For this pose, you need to put your hands on your hips while you are seated with your legs stretched. Raise your body from the tailbone and then pull your head back.
3. Crescent This pose is great for firming your thighs, hips, and abs. basically, you need to stand with your toes pointing forward, feet together and your arms at the sides. Reach for fingertips towards the ceiling as you inhale and raise your arms overhead. Next, bring your hand to the floor and bend forward from the hips as you exhale. Inhale and gaze forward with your arms raised overhead then hold and finally return to standing. A repeat of this pose for about 10 to 15 times is enough to tone your body.
4. Willow This pose firms the side of your stomach giving you a smaller waist. With your arms at the sides, stand with your feet together while placing the sole of your left foot on the inside of your right thigh. Next, bend your knee to the side and then place your palms together in front of your chest. Slowly extend your arms up with the fingertips towards the ceiling and inhale. Bend the torso to the left afterward and exhale. Repeat this process 3 to 5 times while switching sides and pressing your foot into your thighs.
5. Hover The hover pose is great for firming your shoulders, abs, arms and your back. You should start by aligning your body from head to your heels in a push up position. Ensure that your hands are below your shoulders and your arms are straight. Put your arms close to your body, bend your elbows back and lower your chest towards the floor when you exhale and tighten your abs.
There you have it, how to use yoga for weight loss. This is a pretty simple and quite frankly fun alternative to vigorous weight lifting and cardio when trying to lose weight. Whats even better is that you stand to gain a lot more than just weight loss. For instance, your muscles are developed and flexibility enhanced. I will say this one more time just in case you missed it. Using yoga to lose weight without adopting a healthy diet is useless. So, get ready to start eating right if you want to change your weight. Thats it for today ladies and gentlemen.

For some people on a weight-loss journey, the struggle doesnt end with just shedding pounds.
Jessica Weber from Peru, Ill., is well aware of that after losing 180 pounds more than half her body weight.
On Thursday, the 24-year-old shared an honest Instagram snap, which revealed her impressive weight-loss transformation and the loose skin it left her with.
This is my reality! This is my life! she writes in the caption. When you lose 180 pounds, the skin doesnt just suck back up! I have been learning to deal with it, even with wanting to lose a bit more weight and have surgery!
She adds, This is my life until then, and I will not hate my body anymore!
In an interview with the Daily Mail, Weber shares that she started gaining weight when she was 9 years old and she was 383 pounds by the time she was 22.
She underwent weight-loss surgery in January and has since adopted a healthier lifestyle and diet, dropping her meat- and starch-based diet for one thats rich in protein and vegetables.
The extra weight affected my life with how I was looked down on for my weight gain being since that I started so young. It also affected my life in making friends because I lacked the confidence, she said. I wasnt happy; I would pretend to be OK with it though.
Weber is now a body-positivity advocate on Instagram, where she shares her weight-loss journey with her more than 18,000 followers.
When I look back at pictures, I cant believe I got to be as big as I was. I cant believe I didnt try harder to lose weight before I got to that point, she says. I feel sad because I feel like I wasted years of my life, but now that Im losing weight, I feel more confident and am out doing a lot more, so I feel like Im getting my life back.

FARMINGTON, Mich., April 24, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Early breast cancer detection provides women with additional options and generally improved treatment outcomes. Breast thermography offers the level of detail needed for an earlier diagnosis and allows women in Farmington to come in for a breast cancer screening thats a safe and effective alternative to traditional mammograms. Anchor Health & Wellness offers breast cancer screening using these latest advances in earlier detection paired with compassionate and trusted provider guided lifestyle changes.
Breast thermography screenings in Farmington and Farmington Hills use a breakthrough imaging procedure. This FDA-approved breast health assessment tool takes digital infrared images of the breasts which are then analyzed to assess cancer risk by the heat pattern variances.
According to the American Cancer Society, theres been a 178 percent increase in breast cancer rates since 1969, but no change in survival rates. New advances and earlier detection tools, such as thermography, are needed to address this growing concern. Breast thermography is safe, painless, and does not rely upon radiation or use compression.
Thermograms are preferable to the use of traditional mammograms. Mammograms are known to stimulate cancer growth and metastasis, subjecting patients to unnecessary pain and cumulative radiation exposure and results in a high rate of false positives. These false positives often translate into unneeded treatments and biopsies. Thermograms, on the other hand, do not radiate or compress the breast they measure heat variances in the body which can correlate cancer cell growth prior to tumor formation. Women interested in a proactive approach when it comes to maintaining health would benefit from breast thermography. Women with implants, who are pregnant, or who have dense or fibrocystic breasts can safely get reliable results with this advanced tool for breast screening.
Breast thermography is an effective and painless way to address potential breast cancer cell growth in women without pain or radiation, said Dr. Michele Foxworthy. More women than ever are developing breast cancer and its high time for individuals to be aware of better detection technologies that may improve outcomes. Avoid an unnecessary biopsy or the stress of a false positive and get the details necessary to addresscellular changes before tumor growth with a thermogram. We welcome questions and are here to make the breast screening process easy at Anchor Health & Wellness.
Dr. Michele Foxworthy of Anchor Health & Wellness has served residents of Farmington, Farmington Hills, Livonia, and Novi since 1983. Appointments for early breast cancer detection with breast thermography are generally scheduled on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Facility services include chiropractic care, breast thermography, massage therapy, general wellness care, lifestyle changes, nutritional counseling, and weight loss.
Call (248) 471-1250 to discuss early breast cancer detection with breast thermography or to schedule an appointment. Visit anchorchirocare.com for more details.

Mentorassesses and scores a driver's behavior using a proprietary, predictive analytics platform to generate a FICO Safe Driving Score. The score is calculated after each trip and over time, providing both immediate feedback as well as longer-term trending and benchmarking analysis. Much like the FICOScore is the standard measure of consumer credit risk used throughout the credit ecosystem, the FICOSafe Driving Score, which uses driving behaviors, provides a measure that facilitates consistency and fairness in driver safety assessment.
In addition to data capture, analysis and scoring, Mentorprescribes a "playlist" of engaging interactive training interventions, as well as tips, reminders and progress reports customized for each driver based on his or her on-road performance. Licensed instructors from eDriving's Behind the Wheel Training Division can provide an additional level of feedback, tips and support via virtual live coaching.
Product Goals A Driving Fitness Coach
Mentor is aimed at tackling the attitudes and behaviors causing 94% of collisions and incidents by drawing on the best practices used by some of the most effective models in weight-loss, fitness and behavioral change programs. Mentor combines these models with the research-backed driver improvement approaches eDriving has developed and proven through Fortune 150 clients worldwide over two decades. In addition to personalized engagement for each driver, Mentor includes visibility for managers to help reinforce and motivate progress. The patented (Mentor is protected by U.S. Patent No. 6,714,894) closed-loop, continuous improvement model, is the most powerful tool available for organizations to establish an effective culture of safety and accountability. Mentor helps employees focus on the habits, actions and behaviors that may put themselves and others at risk on the road and even prevent them from arriving home safely to their loved ones. The ultimate goal is to measurably reduce risk and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for fleets of all sizes.
"We've essentially created a fitness program for drivers," said Celia Stokes, CEO of eDriving. "Mentor shifts the smartphone from distracted driving culprit to cure. Personal relevance, engaging content, and competition bordering on what we like to call 'shamification' is a powerful combination. It is thrilling to watch the effect of these elements truly changing how people are driving. We see it in their scores and hear it in hallway conversations. Mentor breaks through in a way that no amount of training or policy alone accomplishes. Heads of companies appreciate results-driven behavior modification and we're confident heads of households will too as we roll out to additional audiences."
Beta Testing & Product Adoption
Initial beta testing of Mentor by eDriving reveals a high degree of engagement with the product and the distinct tiers of the FICO Safe Driving Scores from employees who drive company-owned cars as part of their work. This level of engagement signals both the ability to mitigate risk and the desire to continuously and measurably improve driving ability even by those most capable and responsible behind the wheel.
"The pace of innovation in the fleet safety industry is unprecedented, and Mentor is in the forefront as a highly scalable solution built for, and informed by, global leaders in the safety space. It's an incredible opportunity for organizations of all sizes around the world looking for an effective and cost-efficient way to address risk management that can be rolled out in a matter of minutes," added Ed Dubens, EVP of eDriving Fleet division.
Advisory Board
Also announced today is the formation of an Advisory Board to help guide the evolution of Mentor. As it leads the way in establishing effective behavioral change and a ubiquitous industry standard for measuring driver performance and risk, eDriving and FICO are working with key industry players to ensure maximum relevance to the insurance industry and to key global road safety players.
The Advisory Board members represent a vast proportion of the insured population in the world, including the heads of risk engineering and underwriting for some of the world's largest insurance companies. The Board also includes representatives from large multinational corporations with significant numbers of corporate drivers and universities focused on road safety and brain science research related to cognitive distraction.
Newly named eDriving Advisory Board member Paul Atchley, Ph.D., a renowned cognitive scientist and professor at the University of Kansas, commented, "Mentor takes a holistic approach to flagging and addressing driving behavior and advances the clarity that comes with having an intrinsic industry standard as a marker or measure. The truth is we're wired to underestimate risk and we can all be better at one of the riskiest things we do over the course of a lifetime and one of the most difficult to accurately insure against."
Stokes added a sentiment she has shared in multiple, published opinion pieces, "As was the case with banning smoking in workplaces, Mentor is an important step forward in what needs to be an all-out, across-the-board, comprehensive effort. There is a huge gap between how good drivers think they are, and how good they actually are. That is why employer-mandated change and breakthrough tools like Mentor may be just the intervention we need to encourage, reinforce behavioral shifts, and create new norms. Having both your life and livelihood on the line is a convincing combination."
NAFA Institute & Expo
eDrivingSM and the newly released Mentor will be showcased with hands-on opportunities to explore the app at the 2017 NAFA Institute & Expo in Booth #435. To request an executive interview and/or demo, please contact Press@edriving.com

Frustrated with your weight loss progress (or lack thereof)? Your brain may be to blame. Shedding pounds and keeping them off has less to do with the food you eat and more to do with whats going on in your mind, says Eliza Kingsford, author of Brain-Powered Weight Loss. It starts with learning who you are in relation to your actions, says the psychotherapist who specializes in weight management. What are your triggers? How do you manage cravings? How do you handle situations after youve gone off track? What are the messages that you tell yourself?
Dr. Susan Peirce Thompson, adjunct associate professor of brain and cognitive sciences at the University of Rochester, agrees. Getting your brain on board is an essential requirement for long-term weight loss, she says. This is the piece that people are missing.
Heres how to make your brain your ally instead of a diet-sabotaging enemy:
Curb negative thoughts. Cognitive distortions, or thoughts that create inaccurate or exaggerated pictures of reality, can wreak havoc on weight loss goals by affecting your feelings, which trigger behaviors. Lets say you go to a party and see a beautiful girl and think, Ill never look as good as her, Kingsford says. Then you go home and eat a pizza at 2 a.m. because now you feel bad about yourselfwhen you left the house feeling good.
To break the cycle, follow Kingsfords Three Rs: Recognize a negative thought, replace it with something positive and repeat it. So instead of shaming yourself, say, Shes beautiful and so am I.
1. Think of your future self. Battling a big craving? Close your eyes and imagine yourself in the future, reaping the rewards of resisting turning heads at your high school reunion or crossing the finish line of a challenging race. In his new book, The Hungry Brain, author Stephan J. Guyenet says that taking time for this kind of visualization helps your rational brains decision making process, which can override in-the-moment impulses.
2. Keep trigger foods out of sight. A Cornell study found that women ate half as many Hersheys Kisses when they were in opaque containers on their desks vs. clear containers. This is because the visual cues were not present, says Dr.Adrienne Youdim, director of the Center for Weight Loss and Nutrition in Beverly Hills, California. You can make this work in your favor, too, by keeping healthy foods most visible in your kitchen.
3. Put meals in writing. The average person makes 221 food-related choices every day, says Peirce Thompson. There is no way that our willpower can execute in the face of that kind of uncertainty. Try to remove choice as much as possible by planning meals and recording them ahead of time in a food tracker. The next day, your only food job is to eat what youve planned out, Peirce Thompson says. If a whole day is daunting, start by pre-tracking the meal that gives you the most trouble, like dinner, and build on that.
4. Say an affirmation. It sounds corny, but it works: A study published in Psychological Science found that women dissatisfied with their size lost more weight after affirming their values. Kingsford suggests choosing a phrase that is positive, personal, pointed and in the present tense. For instance: I have the power to change my lifestyle. Repeat it three times every morning.
5. Smell before you bite.More than 90 percent of taste is smell, says Dr. Alan Hirsch, founder of Smell & Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago. The neurologist conducted a six month study where volunteers were given aromatic blends of scents like banana and green apple and instructed to smell them whenever they felt hungry. Those who sniffed more often lost the most weight. By sniffing your food, odor molecules reach the olfactory nerve at the top of the nose, and you will therefore perceive that youve eaten more than you have, Hirsch says. Take note: Eating your food hot helps enhance the smell, while drinking alcohol with your meal has the opposite effect.
6. Expect to make mistakes. Temptations will strike along the way, says Kingsford. But if you stray from your goals, its important to get your brain back in the game as soon as possible. Resist the impulse to keep indulging. Saying Ill start again Monday can quickly become next week, she says. Dieting is not all or nothing. Make sure you get back on track with your very next choice.

6 Easy Brain Tricks to Help You Lose Weight - Parade
Posted: April 24, 2017 at 5:40 pm
SCIENCE reveals why we find it so hard to lose weight but so easy to put it on.
GETTY
You can go the gym religiously, eat a perfectly balanced diet and see little to no weight loss.
But one weekend of chilling out, drinking wine and eating cheese? Hello extra weight.
So why does this happen? Nutrition scientist Dr Tim Crowe revealed to news.com.au the real reasons why its so much easier to put on weight.
"The influence of hunger on weight regain is three-times stronger than a slowing of metabolism. Add the two together it appears almost inevitable that the lost weight will creep back on again for most people," Tim explained.
This means that because we are cutting down our food intake when we diet, we find were hungrier and thus more likely to eat more when we cut loose a little.
A recent study tested a new drug for treating diabetes on two separate groups.
High-protein, low-carbohydrate diets are all the rage right now and for good reason. Protein is an important component of every cell in the body. Hair and nails are mostly made of protein and your body uses protein to build and repair tissues.
1 / 11
The results showed people on the drug, which works by making the kidneys produce more glucose which can help with weight loss, lost only a little bit more than the group who didnt take the drug.
This is because people who were taking the drug were hungrier and on average ate an extra 100 calories a day per kilogram of weight they lost.
Tim said this also applies to restrictive thinking and disallowing ourselves to have certain foods.
Regaining weight has little to do with poor self-control. Our bodies are primed to fight against weight loss. You can ignore hunger cues for a time, but they will persist for much longer than your willpower.
This is why its so important when you are trying to lose weight, not to starve yourself or put yourself on a too-restrictive diet.
By doing this you will crave food more and end up eating larger quantities.

This is the REAL reason why you gain weight faster than you lose it - Daily Star

ANCHORAGE, AK--(Marketwired - April 24, 2017) - The U.S. market is saturated with fad diets, weight loss supplements, and "easy fixes" that promise to deliver rapid weight loss with no consequences. In reality, weight loss is far more challenging and obesity is a vast, continuously increasing problem. More than 30% of all Americans are overweight or obese individuals, regularly dealing with issues like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and certain types of cancer. With obesity comes higher body mass index (BMI) levels and increased health problems. For this reason, reducing excess body fat and pursuing healthier lifestyles is vital. A long-term weight loss solution, ideally monitored by a doctor and customized to the dieter's nutritional needs, is important for consistent weight loss progress. A regular fitness routine and a balanced diet with calorie monitoring are also important.
According to Dr. Nishant Rao, the resident medical expert at Diet Doc, a nationally recognized top weight loss program, regulating blood sugar is also crucial to the weight loss and weight maintenance process. When regulated, blood sugar levels have virtually no negative impact on weight loss. However, when blood sugar levels elevate too much, the body's ability to process glucose is obstructed. As a result, the body stores the extra glucose as fat, which can ultimately lead to worse issues like diabetes, heart disease, or even obesity.
According to Dr. Rao, "Diet Doc uses low carb dietary principles along with the Ketogenic diet to facilitate sizable drops in blood sugar, which can allow for fat loss to occur more effectively." In severe cases, variations of intermittent fasting, or IF, may also be employed in order to "create extended fasting windows which further reduce blood sugar, allowing for fat to get used without storing sugar." At Diet Doc, a top weight loss program is offered for all patients. The unique dietary needs of each individual are considered in order to maximize efficiency, safety and maximal results. For this reason, all patients receive custom-designed weight loss programs and diet consulting. With a safe, doctor-supervised diet plan and guidance for life, Diet Doc patients gain the following benefits within the very first month:
For patients who struggle with portion control or emotional eating, Diet Doc offers solutions like Metwell, which helps balance metabolism and reduce appetite without harmful side effects. Medical weight loss solutions like these, especially in combination with popular diets like the Ketogenic Diet, have been shown to be effective when doctor-supervised and customized to an individual's dietary needs, according to Dr. Rao.
With a team of doctors, nurses, nutritionists and motivational coaches, Diet Doc products help individuals lose weight fast and keep it off. Patients can get started immediately, with materials shipped directly to their home or office. They can also maintain weight loss in the long-term through weekly consultations, customized diet plans, motivational coaches and a powerful prescription program.
