Wink Newbie to Curves

Hello Everyone!

I joined Curves a week ago today! I have been going every day they are open. Which is everyday except Sunday.

They open up early enough so that I can drop my son off at his daycare, go to Curves, workout, go home & change, and go to work, With out being late!

I really enjoy it!!

I reached a point to where I didn't want to look in the mirror because I didn't like what I saw. And I diffentely didn't want to step on the scale's because of what they would say. I wanted to do something about it, so I called and joined Curves. I had read some of the previous posts. And it helped make up my mind as to where I wanted to start. THANK YOU!

I have a looooooong ways to go, but I know I can do it.
I'm On A MISSION!

Hope You Have A GREAT Weekend!

Thumbs up Curves for 1 month yesterday...

Hey there,
I joined Curves December 19th. I haven't went like I should and I was weighed today and had gained 2 lbs but they measured me again and I lost a total of 5.50 inches. It's hard for me to believe I lost that many inches, but I'm gonna keep going and hopefully lose some pounds too. Good luck with joining an maybe we could buddy up for some curves support!!

I totally agree that the Threads here are inspirational!

I weighed today. And in 8 days, I have lost 4 1/2 pounds! YEAH!!

I won't get measured until the 12th of February.

I'm in a 24W now, it would be AWESOME to be in a 22 or 20 by then!
(I know I'm probably doing some wishful thinking, But I can dream!!)

It was good way to end my week. Especially since my son has had a high fever for 3 days now! I took him to the doctor yesterday, and she said it's most likely a viral infection and antibiotics wouldn't help, BUT if he continues to have a high fever and it's not going down in a couple of days, to call. (NOT STREP, they did a Strep test)
My son will be 3 in March. He's only had a fever ONE other time! And that was on his 2nd birthday. Stomach Bug. He was a "DREAM" baby!! And my First to boot!! (And only to date) So needless to say, Momma's Concerned.

My Hubby has been wonderful enough to be with him while I go to Curves.

Hope You Have A WONDERFUL Weekend!!

I love Curves!

I highly recommend Curves to gals of all ages, weights and levels of fitness. I have made some nice friends there too and that's an added incentive to go and work out.

I've been going 3x a week for just over two years now and it's the first time in my life I've stuck to any kind of exercise

thats is great!!

how hard do u work every day? You know you should only work it hard 3 times a week and then work lighty/cardio .
Over working it wont help in the long run, u will burn youre muscle youre trying to build.

Glad u enjoy it so much, I know I look forward to going every time its great to relieve stress/ frustration.......

Default I'm a Curves girls also!

I am on my 3rd week of workouts and 2nd week of the 6 week challenge. I have lost 4 pounds, yeah! I have noticed that Curves has been really good for my mental well-being. Struggling with weight can be depressing...but getting moving helps.

I work it hard every other day. I was told that by one of the ladies who works there.

I missed yesterday.
First time since joining....
I spent all day at the hospital with my son & hubby. Yesterday was the 6th day my son had a high fever and the doctor wanted him to go for some tests (blod & urine) & a chest x-ray. The longest part was waiting for my son to go pee. He just wouldn't do it at the hospital. (He'll be 3 in March) So finally, the LAB told us to go home and try tomorrow. We got home and he peed in the U-bag. So we had to run it back up there. In the mean time, his doctor calls and tells us that the chest x-ray revealed that he has a slight touch of bronchitis and pneumonia. So now he's on antibiotics and on the road to recovery! YEAH!!

Tonight I am not missing!! I really missed it yesterday!

Hope Everyone is well!

Yes, He's doing MUCH MUCH Better!! He's normal, temperature wise and acting wise. Today was his first day back at daycare. He missed it.

I know all about having your week thrown off. This week has been off for me too! With my son home sick, I wasn't able to get to Curves in the morning like usual. And I had to miss work... One thing after another....*sigh*

Tomorrow is FRIDAY!!

I weighed this morning at Curves and I've lost another 1 1/2 pounds! YEAH!!
I've lost 6 pounds in 13 days!

I just hope next week is a "normal" week. Well, as normal as it can be.
