My Story
I am a 57 year old with mild Cerebral Palsy and permanent whiplash from a car wreck. I first joinedto lose weight and managed to reach my goal of 129 lbs. within 18 - 20 mo. of joining. Over the past 9 years I have had shoulder surgery, had to have my left foot in a cast and use a wheel chair for three months. Both times I gained most of my weight back because I was on medical leave for so long and couldn't do my Curves. When I got back to Curves, once again I would lose weight but that was not my only goal. I feel a tremendous lift everytime I do my 30 minutes on the circuit. I have made so many new friends that it is also a social outlet for me as well. I deal with pain every day but Curves helps me with that also. If there was such a thing, I would probably join Curves for Life!
