When I was struggling to do up my size 14 clothes I was getting more and more depressed. I hade never been so big, not even after having my son so I decided enough was enough, I had to stop feeling sorry for myself and do something about it. A friend of mine told me about Curves but I wasn’t holding up much hope. Since giving up smoking Id tried different types of diets and fitness videos, nothing seemed to work or I’d get bored and spiral back into my old ways. When I came to curves for my first introduction I was totally surprised, it was nothing like I expected. I thought it would be full of people whom were super fit and all size zero, never having struggled with there own weight, I couldn’t have been more wrong!! The members and staff were of all ages, sizes and levels of fitness. Then it came to being weighed and measured something I hadn’t done for a log time. I topped the scales at 14 stone One (197lb), I was mortified but we set my goals and I was determined I was going to try my hardest to achieve them no matter how long it took. So from that moment on I completely changed my lifestyle, I went on a strict high carbohydrate diet and started to come to curves 3 times a week. I was determined to give it my all I really enjoyed the workout and it fitted in and around my lifestyle When it came to my first weigh and measure I’d lost a massive 14lb and 22 inches within a month, I couldn’t believe it, I never expected results like that, I was number one loser and on cloud nine. By Christmas 5 months down the line I was coming to curves 5 times a week and I’d lost 3 stone, 43 inches and 32 body fat pounds. Curves had helped me completely change my life. I was now so full of energy again, my body had completely changed shape and I’d never felt so good. I was once again buying clothes and feeling good in them rather than frumpy and uncomfortable. I’ve been coming to curves now for 12 months I’ve lost an amazing 4 stone, 48 inches and a whopping 15% of my body fat. I now wear a size 8-10 clothes which I never dreamed I’d ever fit into. It has been a lot of hard work and dedication I now come to curves 6 times a week and see it as part of my daily routine; I’ve never got bored or dreaded the thought of coming to do a workout and I think it’s because it has been worth while as the results have spoken for themselves. I know I wouldn’t have achieved these fantastic results without the constant support and encouragement of the curves staff. They have been so supportive of me even now that I’ve achieved my goals. They still continue to support me on keeping up my hard work and keeping my weight off which is the hardest thing. I hope to still be here in another 12 months time encouraging new members to achieve there goals because curves helped me change my life. I believe if you want something all you need is determination and a lot of support. The determination has to come from you but you get all the support you need from the curves staff! It’s been a fantastic journey and I feel better than I ever remember feeling! Thanks Curves I couldn’t have done it without you all!!! Sarah-LouiseBEFORE Well, where shall I start – fat, unhappy and lacking in energy. I have been like this for the past 7 years and it didn’t help having twins. I tried various diets and joined another gym but just couldn’t get motivated. Then I met Anna who persuaded me to join Curves, which has been the most positive move of my life. With having small children to look after this 30 minute exercise program suited me perfectly. AFTER After the first month I lost quite a few inches but no weight, but this was a positive step for me because I could start to see results. With lots of encouragement from the staff and even gym members my weight and inches started dropping off me. I feel like a new woman. I have my confidence back, all my friends are so proud. Some who I haven’t see for a while hardly recognise me. I have slimmed down from a size 16 / 18 to a 10 / 12 and lost 28½ lbs and 33¾ inches. I am so happy and plan to stay this way and it’s all thanks to Curves! Cathryn
Personal Message
Conventional dieting information is primarily flawed because it requires a “life sentence” approach to weight loss. The “maintenance diet” of most conventional weight-loss programs condemns you to a perpetually lower metabolism. Also, when you walk, do aerobics, or just diet to lose weight, up to 40% of your weight loss is lean tissue or muscle. Traditional diets also activate the body’s starvation hormones. When you limit your food intake, your body’s instinctual response is to hold onto your fat storage for survival. That means you eat less and still gain weight. “With inaccurate information on nutrition and fitness bombarding us everyday, most people don’t know where to begin when it comes to weight loss and healthy living,” says Gary Heavin, founder and chief executive of Curves International. “Restrictive diets and arduous fitness programs are the recipe that have driven people to obesity and poor health.” Along with eating correctly, strength training is the essential ingredient needed to protect your muscles and to ensure that when you diet you lose fat, not muscle. With the average person gaining three pounds a year, a reasonable workout regime that can fit into today’s busy lifestyle of work and family is critical to help combat diabetes, osteoporosis, hypertension and other health risks that can be associated with diet and exercise. Curves, established in 1992, has more than 4 million members on four continents. Curves is the first facility to offer a total body workout in only 30 minutes, along with common sense weight loss and the support of a community of women. Experienced instructors at Curves offer one-on-one training, while members talk and inspire one another during the workout.
