Getting into yoga
I've wanted to try to get into yoga for a very long time. Every time I do one video, I'll feel great and then wait 4 days before I decide to do another one, and before I know it, 4 months have passed. I've recently been trying to do videos every single day, but I'm wondering if buying a 10 class pass instead will help me get into it more. It'll force me to get up and go instead of doing it in my own home. However, the classes are expensive, about $20 per class.

Achilles are a-killing me.
I’ve always had overly tight achilles heel tendons. It doesn't come from an injury, they're just really short and really tight. There’s a chance that a sports medicine physical therapist could help me figure out how to fix this, but that’s fairly expensive and requires taking time off work to go to the appointments. On the other hand, I could just sleep in stretcher gear and hope for the best. Should I bite the bullet and see a specialist or try to DIY this?

A little exercise even worth it for weight loss?
Is it better to work out just a little bit every day or a more comprehensive workout twice a week? I’m trying to make serious changes, but I’m also balancing an attempt to really make and save up extra income too, so my time is somewhat limited. My primary goal is weight management so a small workout would consist of just a quick run on the treadmill and a longer one would be cardio plus weights.
As a personal trainer, I'd say if you're only going to be going a couple times a week for a more extensive workout I'd recommend at least 3 days per week. During such workouts, I'd recommend a short run to warm up and maybe cool down but the majority should be weights. If you are looking for weight management than resistance training (weight training) is the best thing you can do for yourself. For every pound of muscle on you, your body will burn an additional 50cal every day regardless of whether you workout or not. So when you build muscle you're actually helping your body burn fat even on days when you can't make it to the gym. While cardio feels like a great workout it really doesn't have the long-term benefits of resistance training. So while you will be burning calories while you run, as soon as you stop, so will the burning of calories, but this is not so with the resistance training. Best of luck out there!
I go through this same conundrum all the time. Honestly just go. Get exercise whenever you can. And if you can get in a harder workout, even better. But each day is a new day and the challenge presents itself all over again :|
My personal opinion is that something as simple and obvious as taking the stairs instead of the elevator can help if time isn't an issue and your goal is just to lose a few pounds. If possible, carve out a few evenings a week to go to the gym, but don't sweat it if the best you can do is get a brisk walk in.
I've done classes, because like you I'm not disciplined enough.
Think about the proper forms of poses.
Definitely at least start with the classes. While I don't do Yoga, I always struggle to get myself to incorporate Core into my workouts. So I joined a new gym that incorporates core into all the classes so that I am working out Core at least every other day. If the classes are too expensive one place, look around you will probably be able to find a cheaper price somewhere else.
