My Story
The Best Decision I Ever Made
14 Months Following Curves Program
Result Size 16 to 6
In January of 2006, I realized I could either continue on the path of continual weight gain or I could do something about it. My weight had climbed up to 178.5 pounds. I kept thinking about my 25th wedding anniversary that was coming up that year in October and how if I could only weigh on my anniversary what I weighed on my wedding day how wonderful that would be. The decision I made January 7, 2006 changed my life forever. For it was then that I decided it was time to visit one of our area Curves to find out what all the talk was about. I had read Curves success stories and loved the idea of a 30-minute workout, which was already planned out for me. Plus the fact that it was for women only was an added bonus!
Two weeks after I joined Curves I started attending the 8-week weight loss program. The program jump-started my weight loss. During the 8-week weight loss program I lost 11 pounds and was deemed the Biggest Loser in the class. It was the first time in my life being called the Biggest Loser was a title I gladly accepted.
By March of 2007 after working out three times a week, I had dropped a total of 43.50 pounds. My total weight loss to date has been 43.50 total pounds, 26.91 pounds of body fat and 30.25 inches. The exciting part is that I have been able to maintain my weight loss even though on other programs I found that impossible to do.
The best thing I love about Curves is that not only have I succeeded at losing weight, but also I have made so many new friends.
