My Story
I have tried my whole life to lose weight. I was a chubby child and have always battled with scale. When i saw that curves was coming to Bancroft I was excited. I joined as soon as the doors were opened! I was also going to weight watchers at the time and a lady said that she took it 10lbs at a time. Before she said that i remember thinking I have 100 lbs to lose, I will never be able to do it. One of the biggest changes I made was cutting out all sugar and white flour. I was going to curves also and the support there was tremendous. I started working out 5x a week, and walking for an hour every night. My trainer worked with me and showed me some exercises to help my stomach. The members have been so supportive. I love them all to pieces!! We crank the music up and work our butts off !! To date I have lost 75.8 lbs and 72.5". I am so blessed. It is wonderful to be shopping in the petite section now. I am a size 8 in the curves jeans (which by the way are fantastic) ! I still have a little way to go and i have to keep it off. With each 10 lbs, I said good-bye forever out loud and that i was never going back there again. The girls are so wonderful, and the weigh ins and measurement days helped tremendously. My two beautiful sons were a great inspiration to me. With every weigh in I would text them and tell them what i had lost that month..they would say "way to go mother, keep it up we are so proud of you". Thank you... I never in a million years thought i would be here, I love my new body.. I love my curves !!!

"We at Curves love you to pieces too Margaret. We have so much fun I couldn't see Curves without our 5 o'clock ladies. We sure sweat it out together. You've done so well Margaret. You really are an inspiration. I too need to lose about 100 pounds. Seing how well you are doing is more motivation and inspiring. I will do it too!!! I want my curves to be in the right place. It would be amazing to wear a petite size... size 8? I thought that was an age! haha *hugs* Keep it going woman!"
