Hello chickas! I went yesterday after work and started my 2 weeks free. Its awesome because I use to work with a girl that works there. Actually come to find out halfway through my workout her mom owns the place and her mom was the one that took my measurments and weight. I LOVE IT ALREADY! She told me that i missed the bag of grocery thing=( BUT i can get the 53% percent off so its actually only $70 to join plus my first month, which is only $99 plus tax! WOOHOO! Im stoked! She said that curves has a diet class and that she would give me a scholarship to go if i wanted..which means i can go for free. She said she would give me a tshirt and everything. I think her daughter knowing me helped. EVERYONE was right, every lady there is very supportive. Its awesome. I love the inspiration the owner gives me. Shes like i know you can do this...its not easy..but you can do it. She told me a word of wisdom "Its not where youve been or where you are..its where you are going to be". I thought it was awesome. I was going to go today too, but my friends funeral was today and i thought it closed at 2 and it closed at 1 =( Oh well. Ill be there monday and my best friend is going to try it out too. Im excited, but i can do it on my own. Has anyone done the diet class or is anyone on the diet? Id like to find out more about it, i know it works..the girl that i worked with a long time ago already lost 6 pounds in a week and a half. She explained it to be something like low-carb. Id like to know a little more about it. Where is everyone at? lol. I ask once again....Curves is awesome. Im going to join next week..hehe...they just dont know it. I also didnt know that they reward with you a coffee mug after your first 12 visits. Thats awesome. I LOVE PRIZES! Makes me want to go more..hehe. Anyway. I will talk to you all later=) My LONG TERM goal is to lose 60 pounds, My Mini Goal Is 15 pounds by march 17 and lose 50 inches all together to get to the size I want to be. Which is around 5/6. Anywho. Byeeeeeeeeee
I want to go earlier in the day monday...is it bad to go twice? Amanda wants me to go with her on her first time...hmmm....

Does anyone know of another website or forum place for people who go to curves that updates? It just seems like noone gets on this forum ever.....which gets disappointing...
Im so glad you enjoyed it Cutie, Im 3 months into it and I LOVE It. Check out the link I posted for the HOOPS they ARE GREAT!!!! Have fun and keep the positive attitude.
I start the weightloss class tonight. Im so stoked that the owner is letting me go for free. She really wants me to reach my goal. Its great after people believe in you, it actually makes you believe in yourself. Im skipping one of my night classes for an hour to go to it. Im just going to tell him that its doctor recommended....lol..its not the whole truth but hey, my doctor DID tell me to lose weight, and this will help...so i just put the 2 together..hehe. Im excited about it all. Today was my second workout. Friday they are closing early for the easter holidays so im going to go ahead and go before i go to work. Im wayyy motivated. Ok ladies! Heres some homework for you....start updating on here! I hate talking to myself...

I go every day, The girls just shake there head with laughter bc I feel like I have to GO!!!! My curves is closed on Saturday for easter. Did you check out the link for the hoops yet? They really are great.
ive been going almost everyday too. yeah i checked out the hoop site, we dont have those at our curves. Im bad a hoolahooping anyway....ours is closed on saturday too....they close early friday, so im going to have to go in the morning...oh well! Happy Curving!
I only been to Curves 9x but I really love it. Ours is also closed this sat.
I'll only make it 2x this week. I work
10hrs thurs they are closed before I get off, then go in at 7am fri. and this all outside and on my feet. I don't think I'll have energy fri pm. I also found out they open earlier than they say. sign says 8am. but during school year 3x a week they are there at 6:30 and are there 7:30 other days. We are a small town and almost every female teacher is a client. So they nake the exceptions for the teachers. Most of the conversations revolve around the schools. This opening earlier will be great this summer. I don't hardy have the strenght to drive home after a 90-100 degree day and exercise is out so I just go early.
I had trouble making the food class. I'll try again this mon.
Cutiecourt: great to see you are going to join. I'll try to post more often.
I also post on the race to 199 there is a bunch of great girls there. I get all kinds of support.
Hi all, I saw this forum so had to come and see..I start Curves on Tuesday, after I pay and bring in my groceries. Now, I am extremely obese, but am tall so no one, just by looking at me, would thing I am this heavy...Are there other women who go who are in just as bad of shape as I am? I do walk, not consistently, and have started eating a WW plan...but I need to get consistent exercise in a place that I am not the only fat person...I mean, for the most part the girl said that I would be on my own, but I don't want to look like a complete idiot ya know? I gues I am just getting nervous...
Before I bought my home exercise equipment, I used to go to a gym alot (this was a long while ago, about 5 or so years). I was also a bit worried about how I might look to the other members, DianaLS. So many of them had great bodies, while mine was such a chunk!
I got over it, though, by telling myself that simply by being at the gym, I was taking steps to improve myself, just like everyone else there. Working out isn't just for thin people who want to keep in great shape. It's for anyone who wants to improve themselves. Sure, I might be fat, but I have as much right to make myself better as anyone else does.
Well said, I totally agree. With Curves I find that there are more woman like me and striving for the same goals and it is like having a second home. I was going 6 days,but cut back now to 4 and on the off days I go to our base gym and do the treadmill and bike. Keep up the ambition girls and it will fall off.
Kelly, do you live on an army base too?? I do, and while losing weight I was EXTREMELY intimidated to workout with a bunch of buff army guys, so CURVES was awesome for that...and now that I have lost all my weight I workout at both curves and the gym...I no longer feel intimidated when I run because I figure I have worked my BUTT off (literally) and if people want to stare and watch me run or whatever they want to do or say- NO PROBLEM...(but, I must admit I always feel the need to wear makeup when I workout at the gym and who wants to bother some days, then I go to curves...lol)
HI leanne, we don't live on base and the one I go to is Langley AFB we are Coast Guard and they just built this really nice gym with a childs area. Your kid can play and you can work out. They have like 2 treadmills, 2 Elypticals, 2 bikes and alot of free weights. When I don't have the kids I go in the adult area lol and do some leg machines with weights. I was always shy to go as well but these days Im having more confidence in myself. NOW if I could get off this Plateau I have been on.
DianaLS- CONGRATS ON JOINING! I officially joined last week sometime. My 12th workout is coming up and they give us a cute little coffee mug when we reach 12 workouts! You should ask your curves if they offer a weight managment class, mine does and its for 8 weeks. I started 2 weeks ago and its very supportive and helps with all questions. Its working for most of the women taking the class and its reallly helpful! Feeling like youre going to look like an idiot is normal..i was really nervous, i think its just normal! Luckily i wasnt as nervous bc i knew someone that worked there....How is everything going with curves this week???? =)
HELLO LADIES! WHERE IS EVERYONE AGAIN??????? I WISH THIS THREAD WAS BUMPIN!!
