Sadhguru: If you are doing yoga, excess weight will definitely go. For example, when they start kriya yoga, certain people begin to lose weight, and certain people begin to gain weight. If your digestion was bad and your ability to convert the food into flesh was not good, when you start practicing kriyas, the digestive fires get activated and because of the improvement in digestion, the conversion of food to flesh will be more efficient and you start gaining weight.
If your digestive fires were already okay and you start doing kriyas, once again the conversion rate will improve. But instead of turning the food into flesh, it will turn food into a subtler dimension of energy. Now, however much you eat, you will find you are losing weight. If you are practicing the kriyas, you may even find that if you eat a larger quantum of food, you still do not put on weight, you even lose weight. Or, it may be the other way around: your food quantum comes down dramatically, but still, you do not lose weight. This is simply because the conversion ratio is being altered.
Yoga for weight loss - The food factor
Yoga rejuvenates the system and brings so much sense into you that you will not overeat. Once a certain level of awareness arises in your body, your body becomes such, it will just eat what is needed for it. It will not eat anything more. This is not because you are controlling or regulating your life in any way or because somebody is telling you to go on a diet. If you do some other exercises or dieting processes, you are always trying to control yourself. With yogic practices, you do not have to control yourself. You just do the practices. This takes care of the system in such a way that it will not allow you to eat more than needed. This is the big difference with yoga.

A Decade Apart: The Unchanged Challenges of Indian Medical trainee doctors
THE HORRIFYING RAPE AND MURDER OF A TRAINEE DOCTOR AT RG KAR MEDICAL COLLEGE AND HOSPITAL NOT ONLY BROUGHT OUT THE LACK OF SAFETY BUT ALSO THE HORRIFYING WORK CONDITIONS THEY FACE. WHEN I REFLECT ON MY INTERNSHIP DAYS, ONE MEMORY STANDS OUT: A GRUELING 7-DAY CONTINUOUS DUTY IN A DEPARTMENT OF A LEADING PRIVATE HOSPITAL IN INDIA. DURING THIS TIME, I WAS TASKED WITH CHALLENGING DUTIES FOR A CONTINUOUS 156 HOURS. DESPITE THESE HARDSHIPS, THERE WERE ALSO MANY HAPPY AND MEMORABLE MOMENTS THROUGHOUT THAT YEAR.
