My Story
My Story begins with me joining Curves in June of 2004 after gaining 72 lbs since getting married in 1995. I was unhappy,borderline high cholesteral,no energy and my self-esteem suffered.
I had not done any working out for about 7 years and had had two children. When I joined Curves I weighed 223 lbs and was told I really had no muscle. Within my first month I had lost 10lbs! I just kept going. I followed the high protein diet in the curves member book. I found the recipes and food counts very helpful as well as the other info and "Soul Food" quotes.
I hit plateaus and changed up my food and intake as well as adding some extra walking to break plateaus.
Now when I look in the mirror I like what I see! I have more confidence now and still can't believe it is me! My energy level really increased and I now have muscle that helps me burn calories all day long! I lost the 72 lbs and 60+ inches off of my body. I have gone from a size 20-22 and am now in an 8. I have 630 workouts!
Joining Curves was the best thing I have ever done for myself and now it is part of who I am.
