:happy: Hi Curve Divas:flowerforyou:

I have found that I am too caught up with what my scale reads, so .....
I would love to hear the changes you have felt, seen or what other's have noticed since starting Curves and using MFP.

Lately I have notice little things like;
My watch is now loose
My too tight jeans are falling off
I have energy to walk in the morning and find that I enjoy it
I can say I feel "Happy" and I am excited every morning to see what the day is going to bring.

Wow:laugh: who would have thought that 30 mins 3 times a week could makes such a difference in someones life

and for that I am grateful

Faith:wink:

    :smooched: When we walked to the Store last night, my Husband said "You used to get out of breath walking across the room. And now I can barely keep up with you and I am the one breathing hard!"
    He knows the changes he needs to make, and he has made some of them. But he won't/can't commit to Regular Exercise.

    Ive lost 11 pounds and 7.5inches but all my clothes are still tight. But I did noticce yesterday that when I was shopping I was zipping throw the isles. I turned it into a workout.
  • ::happy: I was measured at Curves on Sat and I am down 13.5 inches. YIPEE - I tried on sleaveless green top which I haven't worn for years. and even back then the top fit but I wore it open because it was slightly tight. GUESS WHAT - i wore it today buttoned up :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: THE BEST FEELING EVER!:laugh: :laugh:
  • My boss -who has been on holidays for 4 weeks was back today. Couldn't believe how much I have changed. Stated "You look great" "I can't believe it's you"

  • I am starting with Curves today after work... a little nervous... Does anyone know about the Curves Complete?
  • Hi Pink
    Hope you have a great workout! You will be suprised how much you sweat in just 30 mins. You only have to go 3x per week. CURVES WORKS!

    :flowerforyou: Welcome to Curves Pink!! I have not tried the Curves Complete Diet, but I have heard LOTS of Good Things about it. Most people who have tried it (that I know of) have had Good Results.

    Everything! lol It started with how I felt. More energy instantly. Then my boobs shrank :( Then I saw some muscles in my arms and stuff. Then all of a sudden my belly that got in the way during my stretches was gone. I can no longer fit into my old pants without them falling off. Now life is just fabulous and I always want to dance!

    :flowerforyou: It would be a Shorter List to list the things that HAVEN'T Changed, LOL!!
  • Went to a conference in the Rocky Mountians for 3 days. I went to Curves on Tuesday and on Sat Morning. I did not log my food however, I went swimming with my co-workers and had a great time. I felt great being in my swimming suit, 26 lbs does make a dffierent. Plus, I have more tone - THANKS TO CURVES :wink:

    I've only done 7 workouts at Curves (well, I guess 10 if you count my free week) but I can already feel tightening in my thighs, bum, hips/obliques, and pecs. Plus, I feel like I'm addicted to exercise! I want to go every single day.

    I am glad that you are enjoying Curves. I agree, it is VERY Addictive!!!

    I noticed another change last night; something that I wouldn't have expected out of exercise. When I was playing guitar last night, I noticed that my upbeat strumming has improved greatly with the strength I'm gaining in my arms. What a great, unexpected perk!
