My Story
20 years ago at 28 yearsold, I was feeling great athletic and young then at 30 I lost 80% of my hearing suddenly soon after the birth of my first child..things changed and I was depressed and slowly gained 60 lbs over the next 10 years.
I had a baby at 40 and things just got more challenging. Then about 5 years ago My Mother in law had a great experience at Curves so I decieded to join..I immediatly loved the workout, but after awhile, I felt like I needed to give it something more..Then I read about the advanced workout in Diane magazine..I went in the next day and asked about it.. I was put on the program and it did the trick.. I love the way it got me going and how we could advance with the help of the Curves staff..Then I heard about a body transformation Challenge thru the nutrional products I use.. I decieded to enter.. I knew that I was loving so much what The advanced workout had done for me I had lost 30 lbs so far over a year period but I still needed to lose another 30..so with this great workout and the help and motivation of my amazing Curves staff and all the wonderful women who workout at my Curves..I finished up the challenge and sent in my Before and after Photos along with a 500 word essay.. I had lost that 30lbs plus9% body fat I got leaner than I had been since highschool.losing a total of 60lbs..people started asking me what I did to stay so fit looking and am proud to say I workout at Curves..
The most amazing thing happened I was picked out of 4,000 people as the top 3 in the Body transformation challenge for my age group.
Then the real miracle happened I went to Las vegas and stood before 6,000 people and was the announced the winner of The Isabody Challenge women ages 40-59. I won!!!!....Curves had helped me transform myself into the best shape of my life. But the best part is I get to run again... and inspire women to get fit and healthy I love telling them they dont have to go to a gym they can do a fun and simple workout like Curves and transfrom their lives just like I did.. people ask me all the time how I got into this shape I did and I say you can do it to ..Curves is the way to go...They get excited because I say 3 days a week and a bit of walking in between.Is all you really need to do it..So I my new motto is When life gives you lemons at 30 with the right attitude and some elbow grease you can turn those rotton suckers into some pretty sweet tasting lemonade..
