I got the courage up to weigh in at curves today and I couldnt believe how much weight I had lost since before thanksgiving.
I lost 18lbs and 26 total body inches. I was so happy I started crying when I got out to my car and the manager at the gym started crying when she was telling me how proud she was of me.
Just had to share my good news

I looked and looked and found no coupons for troll food......SO, I don't feed the trolls!! 5|2|not really dieting...(M)|kthy26|kthy26@yahoo.com|18:52:26|01/22/2009|
When I joined curves it was right before thanksgiving and believe me I did not hold back during the holidays I ate everything that I wanted and too much but that is the past.
At the beginning of January the Curves I go to had a weight management class that I attended and it basically talked about what to eat and not eat and how much of this and all of that kind of stuff and they gave you a book that had recipes and a place to write your food down and everything like that I have to honestly say that I have not really followed the diets in this book either.
I have been going to curves atleast 3 days sometimes 4 days a week this week I will have went 4 days. I have cut out almost all carbs and all sugary stuff like soda and tea and stuff like that. I took all the bad stuff out of the house and replaced it with fruits and veggies and healthy snacks and now at work I eat only a salad and a fruit.
Also at curves you can have a smart tag that you insert into the machine before you get on and it challenges you more it makes you work harder on the machine and a little longer then normal.
Thank you everyone for the congratulations. I am very hard on myself even with the lbs and inches i have lost there is still a voice saying you could of done more but thats just how i am.
Barb, do you like curves? I bought there protein drink mix and have drank that the past 2 mornings for breakfast. Its a little hard to choke down but it fills you up and you can have this as a meal on the weight loss plan so i have it for my breakfast. Tomorrow morning I will try it with fresh strawberries in it and make it like a smoothie.
Kathy 6|3|I haven't bought any of the extras....but LOVE the place. I love the circuit and that I don't have to figure out what I am supposed to do....big gyms full of machines (and men) would just intimidate me out of going there. I LOVE that it is women only....and that at my Curves they are REAL women...it is so comfortable. I am thrilled with it. Going 3 days a week...my location has kinda of limited hours wish they had more hours available...but that woud be my only disappointment in them.|Barb09|Barb0969@AOL.com|19:05:36|01/22/2009|
I looked and looked and found no coupons for troll food......SO, I don't feed the trolls!! 7|1|i dont like the hours at my curves either..(M)|kthy26|kthy26@yahoo.com|19:17:24|01/22/2009|
My curves is open from i think 7-12 noon and closes then reopens at 3:30pm-7:30 i think. I always get there at 3:30 because I come home from work change and go directly there and then i am back home by 4:30. I wish they were opened in the afternoon hours because then i could go directly there after work but they arent open when i come by there on my way home so i just come home and change and then i dont have to carry work out clothes and shoes with me.
I love my curves also and I talk to everyone about it.
Kathy 8|2|That closing from 12:30-3:30 on Tues and Thurs really stinks for us. My son is off school by 4..and last week my daughter had school half days...so we rushed over about 3 (had an hour before my son would be home) and they weren't open until 3:30! AGH!! Also, yesterday my dd forgot her purse...we went over to pick it up and forgot they were closed again. The weekend hours are short too....but I like the workout so well we are working around it.|Barb09|Barb0969@AOL.com|19:28:11|01/22/2009|

that sounds like a good healthy amount to loose in that time frame, with the Holidays it is so hard. You are doing great.

didn't loose any weight but lost inches and felt good.
Good Luck, proud of you!
