I go to Curves as well. For people who slag on it and say it isn't a "real" gym, I lost 61 inches in about 4 months going there.. and then I got pregnant.
But now I'm back and this is my second week. I LOVE IT. I have started going twice a day as often as I can.. mainly because it's my "Me" time and I get a break from the kids. It will be interesting to see what my first measurements are with going as often as I do. When I went previously I would do 3 circuits once a day.
