My Story
My 46 year old sister unexpectedly had a stroke in April 2008, her stroke was not caused because of poor diet nor poor exercise habits, she was very healthy and was an avid Curves member in Sparta, WI. Her stroke was caused by a dissection of her carotid artery, this type of stroke accounts for about 1-3 % of all stokes. Her stroke caused me to take a good look at my own health and prompted me to join Curves. I joined Curves in May 2008. I exercised regularly at Curves, however I really didnt do much to improve my eating so my weight and inches lost from May 2008 to Jan 2009 didnt really change much, if anything I gained. I started the Curves Fitness and Weight Management Plan in February of 2009. I have lost a total of 18.60 inches and pounds combined. My total cholesterol in April 2008 was 211 and this year in March it was 177! Thats a 37 point difference in less than a year. By the way, my sister is doing well. Her doctor told her that being a Curves member really helped in her recovery and rehab in learning to walk again because whe was in such good shape and her muscles were so toned from working out at Curves. Thanks so much Curves!
