My Story
I have only been a member since the end on March 2009. I am at my heaviest weight ever. One year and 10 months ago I had a massive heart attack, I was shocked 3 times and can back to the living. Had a double bypass and was sent home, Since then I have been gaining weight, between 50 to 60 pounds. I have requested help from all of my doctors but when you gain weight you are looked at as being fat and lazy, I had one doctor to tell me that I was FAT (using that word)but I have found they do not care how you are feeling or how upset you become over your weight, so I'm going to Curves and take care of myself. I was to the point of having trouble breathing because of the weight, but since I have joined curves my breathing has become much better and I have more energy. I am working on my 3rd month with the goal of getting this weight off. After 3 months I think my breathing and energy improvements are a great start for so little time.
