My Story
Yep,that was me at my heaviest,377 pounds!I couldn't
walk down our hallway,without getting out of breath.I
had severe sleep apnea,where I even had to use a CPAP
machine at night.Blood pressure was 178/98,I had pain
in my hip and knee's from carrying to much weight.Also,
borderline diabetes,and I needed someone to hold leg press,so I could get on machine.Now, B/P is 123/72,no
diabetes,pain,or sleep apnea! Energy level is through
the roof,and I get get on and off all machines with ease.
But like my son say's,"Mom your hot"!is what matters
to me the most.Curves works,and I'm living proof,look,I
actually have a waist! In Oct 2007,I felt adventureous and went fishing with my son's,7&9.We didn't even find our fishing spot, when Mom fell on rocks, and broke my ankle.The Hawaii Fire Department Rescue had to come in and carry me out.Could you imagine the difficulty they would have had if I were still nearly 400 pounds?Also, the orthopedic surgeon said if I were still heavy, the break would have been worst,and recovery longer.Because
of working out at curves, my bone strength helped me heal
faster.
