Yoga is excellent for your flexibility, but unfortunately not so good at helping you to lose weight as it is not a cardiovascular activity. Doing traditional yoga for an hour burns less than 200 calories per hour, but there is another type, called "power yoga" which is better at helping you lose weight as it is an aerobic activity.
However, yoga is great for helping you to relax, and it also improves your endurance so it is still good for you!
