Question:
Hi all. I recently bought a book called Yoga for Weight Loss, which has a routine of postures to do each day, meditations, etc, and a detox diet in it as well. As someone who is technically obese, and tried many diets and exercise plans with no success, it seems like a too good to be true kind of deal. Is Yoga really an effective way to lose weight and keep it off like the book says? Has anyone had any personal tips on detox diet they could share? I'd appreciate any advice or comments, thanks :)
