Abiasa and Viragia

I don't want to get all new age on people here, but I was doing some yoga yesterday and I was pondering my dilema with the cleanse. I tried really really hard and I didn't make any gains (or losses in this case), I think that might be an issue that's facing all of us. There are two concepts that yogis talk about which are relevant. The concepts are abiasa - willfull determination and viragia - non-concern for results. If you set out a regimen and follow it but don't get results, you shouldn't get discouraged just relax and trust that it will work evenutally. Don't let desperation get the better of you. If you gain some muscle and it results in a weight gain one week, then focus on how your clothes are fitting you better and how the muscle will help you burn more calories in the next weeks. If you're having trouble following your regimen then you should first re-evaluate your plan to see if it is do-able and then focus on being willfully determined to follow it.
OK, now that I'm done being all philosophical, here were my results for the week. I lost 1.1% of my body weight this week, and my total percentage of weightloss so far was 9.4%.
While it's the lowest percentage I've had so far, I wore my jeans last night and they weren't tight at the waist any more, they didn't make my tummy bulge over the top of the pants. I can feel my collar bone which is no longer covered by fat. And mostly I'm relieved that I don't have to do the cleanse any more.
