Rachael's Story
Life is full of moments that
change our lives. These moments are life defining. They change
us; they give us the power to believe in something that we might
not have believed in before. A life defining moment for me was
when I decided to change my lifestyle and embrace a healthy way
of living through proper nutrition and exercise.
It was Christmas of 2005 when I
realized that I was at an unhealthy weight. My weight was 252
pounds and I was not happy. Besides being obese I knew that if I
didn't change my habits I would be plagued with diseases that
so many are faced with: Cancer, Heart Disease, Diabetes,
Osteoperosis, and Arthritis. I had no energy and my circulation
in my fingers and toes caused them to be numb and cold all the
time. Actually, I hated myself. The lowest I had ever felt in my
life. I've read if you don't like something change it and
if you can't change it change the way you think about it.
Don't complain. Attitude is everything. Little did I know
that those would be so important in the journey that I would soon
embrace.
I had been a member of Curves since March of 2004 but rarely
attended because I made excuses for myself. I was busy being a
mom, I had to take care of the house, cleaning, laundry and
cooking. After all who had time for exercise? Even though it is
designed for 30 minutes….Fun, fast and effective. Who has
time?
Well, If you can't find time for bodily exercise you will
find time for a doctor. Was this really the path that I wanted to
venture down? Or should I just utilize my gym membership and see
what that could do for my life. I chose Curves! I committed to
their nutritional and exercise program and I committed to myself
and my future. What a great decision!
I am a firm believer that it is all about the journey and not
the destination that we eventually will come to. My approach
seemed simple, one day at a time. You cannot lose 100 pounds
before you lose that first one. No progress is insignificant.
Actually, all forward motion becomes a solid foundation in the
journey to a healthier, happier YOU. In eleven short months I had
lost 95 pounds and 80 inches. I had gone from a size 20 down to a
size 4/6, but it isn't about the size, it is about the
HEALTH. I am stronger mentally, physically, and spiritually
because I took care of myself. I made time for ME. I gained self
worth, self esteem and truly feel that there is not a mountain
that I could not climb. I AM a better wife, mother, sister,
friend, daughter, employee and woman because I took the time to
commit to myself. The best gift I could have given myself. Truly
priceless!
Life is precious
not to be taken for granted. Finding time for yourself and
embracing a "CAN DO" attitude will empower and enrich
your life. I know that Curves 30 minute program and weight
management program work. It CAN be a tool for your success all
you truly have to do is BELIEVE.
Live it, Love it Embrace it. The Power to Amaze.

OUR STORIES:
"I joined Curves in February 2004. I had heard about Curves
from a friend of mine at the supermarket. Much to my amazement,
by May I was down 2 pant sizes and my clothes were all loose and
hanging on me. Was I excited!
I begin my day with Curves. Within 45 minutes I am back home. Its
the best investment I have ever made. I recommend it to my
neighbors, friends, and relatives. I visited my daughter in
Florida and we looked for a Curves in West Palm Beach. She is now
a member of Curves.
Without too much effort, Curves has changed my style of living. I
feel wonderful. The biggest thrill is when people look at me and
say, "You look wonderful Theresa. What are you doing?"
My answer is...I joined Curves."
Theresa, Monaca
"Before Curves I hated looking at myself in a full length
mirror. I got out of breath walking up and down stairs and doing
normal everyday housework. In just 7 short months I have shed
pounds, lost inches, gained muscle and feel great. I enjoy my 30
minute workouts and look forward to coming to Curves. The staff
care about me as a person and treat everyone as a friend. Its fun
and they keep our enthusiasm high. Curves is truly
amazing!"
