in Getting Started
Hi, my name is Casi and I started the Curves Complete program to lose weight and get in better shape in March of 2013. During that year, I lost 60 pounds with hard work and becoming infinitely more active. THEN, the horrible winter hit and I became much more sedentary, discouraged, and depressed. Both my husband and I have gained 20 pounds of our weight loss back since the beginning of last winter. The winter was was terrible, but now I am/we are ready to start working again - with the help of my awesome husband BL_Mark. Mark lost about 90 pounds last year with the help of MFP (woohoo, babe!), and I lost my weight with the help of Curves and the Complete program. Unfortunately for me, my Curves gym is closing, and the next closest gym is not within walking distance of our house (besides being too expensive for our budget!). However, we now have an elliptical and a weight machine in our basement, and I am hoping that will be a great tool for our new lifestyle.

Last year, I was extremely focused on a healthier lifestyle for a better life for us and our two wonderful kids. I want to get back into that mindset and get back to being on the path to where I want to be!

This photo is before we started to "get smart" about being healthy:

And this photo is us at Christmas last year:

    Hi Casi,

    Im Kristen - 39 yo SAHM to 4 kiddos. 3 boys and 1 little lady. We live in So. Texas, where we're just HOT all the darn time (thus, exercising outdoors is difficult, sometimes impossible at times). I live in a very rural area, an no gym close by either. Im down 25 lbs and want to lose probably 50 more.

    I'll friend request you. I get kind of bummed never having any comments on my "wall". :) Talk soon!
