My Story
My name is Dorothy College. I started at Curves on 01/23/09. I had my left knee replaced in 11/12/08.
It was difficult for me to get on some of the equipment at first. I have seen great improvement in my health in the first two months. I have diabetes and took oral medication. After two weeks of coming to Curves, I was able to reduce my medication by more than half. I was taking two different medicines for high blood pressure. I stopped one of the medicines and take 1/2 of the second for my blood pressure. I am able to get around much better and am able to do more.
Before my knee operation , I just went from my bed to my recliner and back to bed. My doctor wanted me in a nursing home. I had a lot of pain in my left shoulder and left elbow. My doctor said he could see that I had improved. He would not have to operate. I have lost 16 1/2 inches and 11 pounds. I am getting great doctor reports and fantastic compliments. A friend asked if I had a stomach reduction operation to look so good. Husbands are saying to bring their wives to curves.
It has been four months since I started at curves. I have been able to reduce my medicine even more. I am now taking 1/4 of the medicine for mr diabetes. In May,I started to go bowling. Curves has made a huge difference in my life for the better.
