I just signed up too! I had a lot of success with Curves in the past, but the pounds crept back up over the last few years. I think Curves Complete sounds like it could be really helpful - and I like that there is more accountability! If you (or any other members on the Curves board) want to friend me, please do! I can…

Do you have a fridge in your office area? I try to bring healthy snacks and keep them in the fridge (like low-fat cheese, greek yogurt, fruits/veggies).

I, too, am interested in the science and research behind weight loss -- I think it's important that we understand our own bodies so we can make the right choices about what we do to them! I'm looking…

Thanks for all the great ideas! I really like the idea of scheduling in time for workouts and doing short bursts of exercise (like going up and down the stairs) throughout the day as part of a routine. I decided to start a college professor/instructor group, so please consider joining if you'd like to help motivate one…

This is a great idea - thanks!

Me too! I'm 31 and am finding that it is way harder to lose weight now than it was when I was in my 20s. I'm hoping that if I just stick with it long enough, my body will finally give in! I'm just frustrated that I'm having to wait so long! I have found that it helps to switch things up a bit though - if I do the same…
