My Story




I joined Curves to lose weight, My first goal was to weigh 199 pounds, now I am 164 pounds. I now can take a shower without having to sit and catch my breath before drying myself, wear pants with buttons and zippers, buy clothes off the rack, wear a seat belt without extensions, and receiving what I call my losing weight wedding ring. I can now easily get down on my knees to thank God and move my body with ease.

My goal is to be on the front cover of the Diane Magazine with a great big smile because I am proof that Curves works. I certainly wouldnt have been so successful without the support of my husband, and the fantastic people at the Orangevale, CA. Curves (owner-Pat Dalton, staff and members)

Many people tell me I am an inspiration for them and think I have the potential to be a Curves spokesperson. The Curves members and staff always cheer me on. Since my weight loss started to show there has not been one time that I walked into Curves and didnt get a compliment or an encouraging word. Pat Dalton makes the Orangevale/Granite Bay Curves a very caring and sharing place to be. Pats Healthy Ways class has only added to our fine Curves home. We all learn the true way of taking care of the one and only body we will ever have.
Thanks to everyone. You truly helped me become the woman I used to be. No...I have never felt this way before; you helped me become a woman I like and never knew.

What more can I say? CURVES WORKS

"I joined curves around the same time as Dianne and have watched her transform into a healthy, beautiful woman. Watching her has always motivated me she works out so hard!!! I mean she really gets that smart equipment flashing green. She deserves to be a spokesperson for curves because of her dedication to the curves program and her determination day after day, month after month, year after year to keep on working. It has been an honor to watch her transform. See you on the cover Diane. We love you! Diane. "

"I believe Dianne H. has proved what most of us women already knew. That females are made of sterner "stuff" than the male gender. I'm still in awe of this lady, since these past winter months when I read an article about her in the local weekly newsletter. She has had some tough set-backs, yet she has persevered. We talked one day at the Orangevale Curves and she told me how much the Curves counselors and especially Pat Dayton had worked with her and kept her inspired. I saw her about a week ago at Curves and did a double take. The past few months has really toned her body and she looks great! I admire her tremendously and feel she has earned a "front cover" picture. She is much too modest and conservative with her words in this story. And Curves has worked for me too. My cardiologist said to me, "Curves has helped you to get well, your heart beat is sounding normal again." And at 75, I think that says it all. I vote for Dianne to be on the cover of DIANE."

"When I first met Dianne at Curves, she looked great! Little did I know the accomplishment she was achieving. I always saw her working hard but always wearing a smile. Dianne has a bubbly personality, is always positive and I believe would be the perfect spokesperson for Curves. She is such an inspiration to me and the other gals. Speaking of inspiration, Pat Dalton and her team invoke constructive and optimistic assistance. I love going to my Orangevale Curves! But back to Dianne - Since I have known her and have continued to observe her success, I see a butterfly of beauty emerging. Her skin looks healthy and smooth. Her positive attitude is infectious and I can't help but be inspired by her."

"Diane you are amazing and I am so proud of you! Not only have you worked so hard to meet your goals, you have also become such a confident person. I met Diane 2 years ago and have seen her transform on many leavels. Not only her weight but her smile, her hair, being able to openly talk to people (strangers0 and mostly to accept a compliment. Diane is truly a great spokeswoman for Curves.I'll always remember the day I walked in and didn't say Hi Diane...she said after a while aren't you going to say hello..I didn't recognize her she was in Curves clothes and not her baggy old cloths. We had to encourage her to get rid of her old clothes and show off that new body of hers and she is.You look wonderful. We love you and are so proud of you!"

"I went to dinner with Dianne last night. When I got to her house to pick her up, I was in shock to see how wonderful she looked in her jeans. She shows her new figure off well. She has accomplished so much & I am proud of her. She is a lot of fun to be around & has found a new self confidence since the weight has come off. She is well deserving of being on the cover of "diane" magazine. Keep it up Dianne! You look terrific!!"
