My Story
I decided to make some changes in my life for health reasons. I was 58 years old and knew it was time to do something about my weight. I have been overweight all of my life. I knew that I had to join an exercise program along with a diet and decided that Curves was the best program for me. It changed my life for the better.I have lost a total of 111 lbs. and feel like a new person. I have more energy, feel younger, and my health has improved.
The staff and members have been my cheerleaders through this journey. I owe them many thanks.... They say I have inspired them and that is a nice feeling. Thank you Curves!

"This is like a miracle! A totally new Carol! She sees the other side now and it agrees with her! She worked so hard for this! I would have never imagined Carol going this far! She always was a hard worker but now she is like the Energizer Bunny! Some people may not recognize her on the outside, but luckily she is the same goodhearted person I have always known! Great job Carol!!!!"

"I agree that we do have similar stories and I am proud of you and your continued work. I still have to think about not eating when I'm bored, mad, sad, etc...and I still slip up sometimes and I am positive that it is the Curves regimen that keeps me from falling! Good luck and congrats!"
