My Story
Exercise for me was 30 minutes twice a week of brisk walking on the treadmill. I always told myself I would lose weight over the winter and be in shape for the upcoming summer, but the opposite always happened. Then a co-worker gave me a week pass to try out Curves. I've been hooked ever since!
This last September our club held a 4-week "Boot Camp". I figured this was a way to kick my weight loss into gear. We had to exercise six times a week, and every time we went to Curves, we had to be weighed. Our coach also gave us menu plans and recipes ideas for our meals, and weekly meetings were held to discuss our progress. This really kept you on track and taught us to make sensible food choices. I ended up coming in 3rd for most weight lost(9.5lbs). Thinking that wasn't too bad, I kept on following the menu and exercise plans and lost another 15 lbs over the next few months.
I like to go to Curves during my lunch hour; on my days off exercising I don't know what to do with my time!
To keep motivated at home I rest one weekend day, and the other I put on my gym clothes first thing in the morning and run on the treadmill. Now I'm ready for summer!
