My Story
I joined Curves because I am what the Doctor's call morbidly obese. I could only walk short distances without becoming breathless and my legs and back give me a lot of pain. In fact because of my weight I have severe enough problems with my one knee that I will need a knee replacement in the future. My new Dr. told me that I have to lose weight and exercise if I wanted to live longer. And so I joined Curves and another weight loss program. I was always afraid to join a work out centre because I always felt so out of place and intimidated by all the "skinny" people there. At Curves I have never felt that way. I have been treated with dignity and respect and made to feel like one of the group by all the trainers and the members as well. I have met many wonderful, friendly women that are just like me. I love Curves and I know that all the over weight ladies out there can feel the same way as I do if they would only take that first step and join now. You won't be sorry. I guarantee it!! In my first 2 months I have lost 19.5 inches and 10.50 lbs. My energy level has soared and I can walk again without being so breathless that I thought I would die. My knee is not as painful as it was and I hope soon maybe even painfree. I have 2 wonderful Grandbabies that I want to see grow up to be adults with children of their own. Please vote for me and I promise you that I will never give up trying to become a healthier, happier, wife, mother, grandmother, and friend while I continue to workout at Curves.
