My Story
The beginning of my weight loss journey started on March 1, 2004 when I turned 50 years old. Six months later on August 6, 2004, I finally started on that journey. My weight on that date was 282 lbs. I decided to eliminate sweets & deep fat fried foods which I loved and ate often. The first month, I lost 16 lbs. I decided since my weight loss attempt was starting to succeed, I would need to add exercise to make sure my body would firm up as I lost weight. I joined Curves on September 16, 2004 weighing 267.4 lbs. My body measurements were: Bust " 50, Waist " 49.5, Abdomen " 56:, Thigh " 29 and Arms " 17. My Body fat was 46.5%. I went to Curves 6 times a week & started to see wonderful results. I continued refining my diet resulting in an average weight loss of 10 lbs. per month.
My goal of weighing 150 lbs. was completed on November 4, 2005. I continue to attend Curves 4 times per week. I am a totally different person now. As the weight disappeared, my self confidence increased. I have succeeded because I set goals during this time & completed all the goals. This has given me a sense of satisfaction I never had before.
