My Story
I'm AMAZING thanks to Curves!

It all began, last November on election night. I was preparing to go to an election party and took out my outfit for the night which included my favorite pair of indigo jeans. Since I am an ample pear shaped girl, I always bought my pants a size up so they were always a little bigger. But on this particular night, I pulled them up and for the first time I couldnt button them! I was astonished and proceeded to lay across the bed to button them and zip them up to no avail. Five minutes later, I gave up and wore a pair of spandex slacks instead. I was so upset, I didnt even enjoy the party . So in a year coined for change, I told myself Yes I CAN! and decided to do something! Id battled my weight all of my life and I was tired of battling. I was determined to win once and for all!

So , I adopted a healthier lifestyle, employed better eating habits, and started working out. I prayed and asked God for strength to help me , and He has totally honored my prayers! Since last November I have lost 71 pounds, 19 inches in my bust, 8 inches in my waist, and 3 inches in my hips! I ve lost three dress sizes and I look and feel great!

I thank God for Curves because if it there was no Curves, I would not work out. I hated to sweat and felt self conscious at larger gyms. I 'm so glad there is a safe haven for women where you aren't judged and are free to be yourself! You're encouraged by the other members and that helps keep you inspired and encouraged:) I'm AMAZED by how AMAZING I look!

"An amazing story and it's even more amazing to really hear a testimony of a real person that has lost the weight the healthy way and not on some diet program. 71 lbs! I am more than encouraged that if I stay disciplined like you, I can achieve similiar results. Way to go!!!"
