My Story
I think I am the most AMAZING member! I'm seventy-one years young and a retired RN. In December 2007, I had a total knee replacement. I ended up having three surgeries because of complications. After my surgeries I walked with a walker for six months. I sat for a year and a half thinking I would never get better. My inability to walk was very hard on me. Coming up onto two years since my surgery and I still have an open wound on my knee. I joined curves to get my body moving again and also to lose weight. In two months I can walk down the road, go to the pharmacy, and walk through the store. The gals at curves always have a smile, good conversations, and have helped me improve my ability to move. I workout at curves four to five times a week! I have lost 4 pounds and 13 inches off my waist. I already feel so much better about myself. With the encouragement of my family and the gals at Curves I know I'll be able to get around so much better with my knee and weight loss. Thank you for letting me tell my AMAZING story!
