Curves members
I am a member of Curves and love it! I'm looking for others who are curves members who might be able to share their stories and success! I joined April 09' and lost about 45lbs before my pregnancy.

Abs/ Core strength training
What is your favorite ab workout? I have a curvy spine and would like to work on strengthening my core but general crunches (especially reverse crunches lowering legs) hurts my lower back. I've tried an exercise ball and just don't feel it. Any suggestions appreciated.

I take a women's multivitamin (general), cinnamon (helps with insulin resistance from PCOS), and B-12 (husband heard it was good for metabolism and…

NSV! (and then some!)
Today I stepped on the scale and saw 166.6 (kinda scary haha) so there was a scale victory. However, I thought about the last time I saw anywhere near that number and it was in high school. I thought to myself, I wonder if the pants that have been sitting in my drawer since high school that I refuse to get rid of fit. So I…

A new beginning...
