I have been overweight all my life and a yo-yo dieter for many years. Once I saw my weight hit the 300 mark I knew it was time to get serious about making changes for good. I just recently got married and would like to get in shape to be able to start a family. My husband says he loves me the way I am but I know I'm not healthy.

I just started Curves! In high school I did a free trial with them but I'm excited that they are partnering with Jillian Micheals. They have some new classes that she added which is great to add intensity. I had my first class last night, which was my first time working out in months, and it totally kicked my butt. I hope that I will be able to stay motivated to keep going!

Thanks for all the support, I'm excited to see the new changes in my life.

Congrats on your decision to change your life! I don't do Curves for various reasons, but I also recently joined a different women's-only gym and I think it's a much better and more supportive environment than the average gym
