My Story
I joined Curves on 9/26/07. I was 21 years old and weighed 220 lbs. Being visually impaired all my life I was afraid to try new things, always afraid of failure. So as so many have, I used food as my solace. Not caring as to what it was doing to me physically and mentally. After years of obsessing over food my mother convinced me to at least try Curves. Now with the encouragement of the ladies at Curves and my mother, which by the way were concerned that I might not be able to do the work out on the circuit, I have begun my journey to a new me. So my first step was to prove to them and myself that I could do this. Since that first day I have lost 62 lbs. and 63.25 in. The first 59 lbs came in the first year. Now armed with new confidence (that I have gained through Curves) I really enjoy shopping for clothes now that I am not limited to plus sizes. I also now have the energy and confidence to try new things One of which is bowling which I love. The other is going out on a few more dates. (wink wink) My goal is to get down to 140 lbs and Curves is keeping me on track. Thank you ladies for all your encourgement and effort to keep me moving toward that goal.
